Pupdate – Updates

If you’re looking for/wondering about possible changes I’ve made to any previous post, they occur on a fairly regular basis. Some change a lot ( such as “Top Ten Listeners…”), others change infrequently (e.g. ‘The F List…’), and others change VERY rarely.

How do you know when they happen? You don’t. Because if I posted a pupdate every time I updated one it’d get REALLY annoying and too many of my posts would be merely quick references to OTHER posts’ updates.

So just fish around, I guess, with the above criteria in mind.

7 – Ukraine
8 – Israel
9 – The United Kingdom
10 – Romania

4/14/16: FINAL UPDATE: Irrelevant since I’m counting total hits. Or maybe I just don’t want to update this. Or maybe something else. Or who cares?

Alfred Hitchcock Presents – The Rest

Skipping mediocre number 105, there are only 8 more available on Netflix Streaming at the moment, and the titles don’t match what I find for the episode names.

So, since this hasn’t been the MOST exciting experience, and since I have no desire to research over 200 more for the sake of completeness, here ends my reviews of this show. Good Evening.

The End. Part Two.

Hmmm.  My previous blog still seems to be hanging around.

I’d like to point out that I’m not posting anything new there, and that everything there is also here.  Plus new stuff.

But in the interest of accuracy, an update on the stagnant blog’s hits:

You have 1003061 Total Visits (As of 6/25/14)

Your blog gets 375.43 average post views per day (As of 6/25/14)

Also:

Final Post Count: 2245 Posts

And: (of 212,483 words).

In Stereo! – Last Post Before 6/25/14

Blog Change – What It Means To You

 

Nothing.

Basically, just come to dapuppy.com as per usual, click on the blog link, and:

Now until 6/25/14: It will take you here.

6/25/14 on: It will take you to the new blog format, which will contain all the posts here and all continuing posts from then on.  And it looks really spiffy, too!

-Puppy >.< Yip!

Same-Day Edit: No new posts will be made until the 25th, to avoid confusion and to allow a small buildup of material.  This will serve as my last post here…on the 25th, feel free to check my blog, when it will direct you to the new format, and I will begin posting again in Frank.  Thank you.

Goodbye Everyone

Pending some unforeseen actual help from GD in transferring my blog without getting carpal tunnel syndrome, this blog will disappear on 6/25/14.

Oh, I’ll have all the posts…but they won’t be here.

Doesn’t help you much, does it?

Basically on the 25th this blog will vanish and I will cancel all GD products.

Have fun!  And F GD.

-Puppy >.< Yip!

6/19/14: Pupdate – I will risk carpal tunnel syndrome.  Oh, the Humanity.

Recurring Bits Off This Website Soon – 5/16/14

Well, all the old ones that seem to have run their course…excepting DPT, of course, and perhaps others if my interest is re-sparked.

And most notably the “Off NF Streaming Soon” posts.

These shall be replaced, where applicable and if I spot it in time, by a little note in a movie that’s actually WORTH mentioning.  So…probably not very often.

-Puppy >.< Yip!

Movies Off Netflix Streaming Soon

By no means an extensive list, just of the large amount of stuff on MY list.

I’ll review them ASAP, since if you care about my reviews you might find it helpful when deciding to watch them or just let them go…putting off ‘Ravenous’ briefly for these, although I remember liking it  
The things I do for my craft…

Oh well, I’ll get to it.

Off NF Streaming 5/15:

The Dead One
Airborne
Bartleby

-Puppy >.< Yip!

Pupdate – Television/Short Subject

In case anyone’s wondering, I never review a television/cable/Netflix/etc series (Basically anything with episodes) until that series is over.

Movies are much easier since even if they’re “episodic” they take at least a year or so between “episodes”.  So reviewing them is far easier in terms of relevance.

So if you’re looking for a review of ‘House of Cards’ or ‘The Walking Dead’, you won’t find any here until both series are over, if at all.

-Puppy >.< Yip!

Note Concerning The Last Note

Three things made better by the policy:
1) It’s easier!
2) It makes my brain hurt less
3) It’s more predictable for you, the reader.  You don’t have to go back re-reading old sh1t unless you want to just re-read it…no “searching in case of new material/edits”.  With the exceptions described.

Although 3 is the least important to me (sorry) it IS actually MORE anal than sometimes editing, sometimes not.  It’s a more (not totally, but more) rigid, predictable, “set” way of doing things.

-Puppy >.< Yip!

Note Concerning Earlier Entries

Excepting things where I may “experience” the exact same thing more than once and have a different reaction (television, movies, music and the like) I will NOT go back through my entries and edit for “current feeling” or to make it be more persuasive, “look” better, be more properly worded…

I made the entries that I made.  I’m not the same person as I was when I made them…I can’t know my exact frame of mind/reference at the time of any.  Therefore, they exist with flaws and all.

There may be a VERY few exceptions to this, but generally old posts will remain old posts; as they are, left to be read as they are.

So if something I say tomorrow seems at odds with something I said three years ago…take the much older one as a snapshot of how I felt about it THEN, and the new one as how I feel about it NOW.

Also keep in mind that my satire bits don’t ALWAYS have the warning.

Conclusion: If you’ve read a post from three years ago, it’s probably not gonna be any different if you go back and read it again.

Exceptions: VERY, VERY few outside of Music (rare), Television/Short Subject (extremely uncommon), MST3K (extremely uncommon) and Movies/Long Subject (somewhat common, actually…that’s my bread and butter, man!)

4/22/16: Content slowly and painfully edited to look better, make sad and happy smilies work, and remove/fix bad links.

Pupdate – 4/22/14

For those of you who have enjoyed my bitter, angry, frustrated posts in the past…

Sorry :(

In future Puppy will be kinder and gentler because Puppy cannot tolerate the intense pain he is very frequently forced to live with.  So, in conjunction with his psychiatrist (Yeah, really, I have one!) he shall be taking a prescription medication that (probably and hopefully) rather dulls his pain, anger, and frustration.

The flip side is it will probably dull his wit, energy, (brief moments of) happiness, etc… as well.

But hey…you gotta do what you gotta do.  Hopefully my posts will retain their level of quality. :) <---- content Puppy (That's content as in being content...there isn't a puppy inside my face).

Pupdate – Vegetarianism

I’ve decided to go vegetarian.  Again.  But this time, I think I’m really gonna do it.

Won’t be a snobby/preachy one…just a personal choice.  No CA/A contamination here.

Wish me the best.  Unless you don’t like me, in which case hope for the worst and I’ll absolutely DELIGHT in either proving you wrong by succeeding or not giving a sh1t because you’re not worth even that amount of thought/feeling.

A winner every time, no blanks!

Pupdate 3/16/14: Major Overhaul

Same-Day Rewrite:  When I was putting less effort into it I was getting 5K hits a day.  Putting more effort into it gets me in the 100’s.  Really fcken frustrating.  Only three ways to deal with it:
1) Ditch it
2) Work harder on it
3) View it as something to do as a hobby, not a necessity, as I always should have

I picked 3.
