Oh how that comic describes my life.
This is good. I love comics, and on my xanga I have a sprite comic going daily. Kudos
Jesus. It’s funny, but not that funny. I’m sure his stuff will get progressively better, but everyone’s already jizzing their pants reading it… so more power to him.
HAHA
I love it!
hey thanks for creating xanga and this wonderful community! it’s really great! i just thought of a neat feature that might be added to xanga… writing a message to your entire blogring. what if there was the option to see in the daily status report, etc. that someone posted a journal entry that they designated to their entire blogring, and just have a little linkthru.
once again you guys at xanga are awesome.
Heh, VERY cool!
love the comic. but i’ve got a problem thats been bothering me for a very long time now. it’s about the replacing link names. why is there always this message “//Get this code at http://help.xanga.com/replacelinks.htm” at the bottom of my xanga? can you figure out how to get rid of it? thanks.
<!–
var links = document.getElementsByTagName (“a”);
for (var l = 0; l < links.length; l++) {
str = links[l].innerHTML;
if (str.match (/d+:d+ (am|pm)/i)) links[l]
else if (str.match (/eprops/i)) links[l].innerHTML = str.replace (/eprops/i, “adam brodys”);
else if (str.match (/eprop/i)) links[l].innerHTML = str.replace (/eprop/i, “adam brody”);
else if (str.match (/comments/i)) links[l].innerHTML = str.replace (/comments/i, “lame opinions”);
else if (str.match (/comment/i)) links[l].innerHTML = str.replace (/comment/i, “lame opinion”);
else if (str.match (/sign out/i)) links[l].innerHTML = str.replace (/sign out/i, “get out of my house”);
}//–>
With the recent events at weblogs.com, would you notify us, your users, ahead of time if you should one day decide to shutdown Xanga?
haha good job
I will subscribe. Thanks for the tip, John!
I agree with a former poster. The comic’s funny, it really is, but he’s no Charles Schultz. Heck, even Charles Schultz never lived up the name he made for himself. That was Joe_X’s first [posted] comic, and as such, it was great. But I look forward to some of his later work, after he grows in confidence and experience.
PeaceOfficer: That was actually my first EVER comic, to tell you the truth, but thanks for the complements and encouragement. By the way, I’ve lived my entire life in Santa Rosa, California…home town of Charles Schultz. And there’s no way you could have known that. Scary. =)
Hi Joe, I don’t mean to bother you with something that may not be your problem, but I can’t find a resource on xanga.com that will help me resolve this problem. I know that you carry some weight on xanga so I was helping you could give me some dirrection. There are two xangas that I assume are run by the same person one of them is theshowonthe12th and the other is theshowonthe21st . These two xangas were made with the sole purpose of advertising for a bands upcoming shows. The owner of these two site has been going to the xangas of almost all of my friends, and I assume many others, only to leave comments that are advertising these shows. I feel that this is morally wrong, but I don’t know if it is something that concerns the people that run xanga. If there is something that can be done to stop this person from harassing people, I think that it should be done, and be done soon. Thank you.
Hey that’s actually pretty funny. Thanks for letting us know.
Where did you find him or is he a part of the unofficial official Xanga team?
okay okay. ive gotta complaint.
theres this girl whose xanga is JUSTLiKEAVRiL and shes found it to be her mission to go on other peoples xangas and insult them. please do something about it…
I say, that is awesome.
wahts so funny about this?
I NEED HELP!!

if you can help me please e.mail me at acidtears_@hotmail.com
thanx…
nice comic. and thanks for the advice… will try that.
Hey John,
I was just recently editing my site when i realized that Xanga doesn’t have the feature to be able to change the order of your blogrings! I don’t really understand how the order is done, either. I checked, and it’s not organized by date of joining or alphabetized. I really appreciate all the work Xanga has done on blogrings, but could you guys just tweak this one last thing? I’d appreciate it a lot. Thanks.
Hi John, it’s Kimberly (aka Mugzee & Brooklynheart). I’ve got 2 code problems regarding an email button & the “home” button for my skin. Can you please take a look at my site (skin) and email me the correct codes for those 2 buttons. I’m frustrated. Additionally – how long will my old sites stay up? Although Brooklynheart is no longer premium – a year’s worth of my life is in private mode there – and I’d hate to lose it. Help soon okay? I’d like to go public with my new site & can’t until I get those 2 buttons working. Thanks John KimberlyRoad@aol.com
Kimberly
Just saying HI=D HAve a nice day!
Hi, can you please help me shut down this xanga for good?
http://www.xanga.com/hyde_class_of_04 That person has hacked into my friends xanga and hacking isn’t good. So please shut down that xanga if you can, i would appreciate it much.

We are all Xanga addicts. It’s an affliction.
Awesome!
funny!
grace
hahah funnie stuff i feel like a xanga whore now =X
nice comic….err..something is wrong with my counter again…think you could find out whats wrong? thanks
gnastly comic. excellent
thanks for subscribing! nice cartoon too! heh
you guessed it. I “borrowed” it from Daily Candy. I can’t wait ’til December either. Maybe I’ll check around Chinatown in July to see if they have any DVD onsale on the street.
awesome stuff
Whom do I go to to complain about harassment?
john i’ve been searching for an option in internet explorer to mute the websites but i can’t find it. i was wondering if perhaps i could log into xanga, set a preferance so that the cookie remembers i dont like music backgrounds and therefore not download or play them. the downloads along with other crazy scripts slow my cpomputer way down plus we all know how the xanga music can interupt our own selective playlist of soothing heavey metal.
perhaps we should just make xanga a program all in itself like AIM and everyone can have it and get instant messages or beeps when they have new comments!!!! (theres another idea how about an IM if we get a new comment!? this way i wouldnt have to hit refresh every 30 seconds…)
Cool! When will the next one arrive?
C.A.A.H ~:)
i don’t like how when you write an entry, and when you re-edit to fix something then submit, your comments get erased when you look at it publicly, but then the comments are there when you hit comments.. is there a way xanga could change that? lol
This comic strip is a great idea.
hahaha – I am loving it =)
I want the fallinq images for xangas without premium because I dont think it is fair at all.
is it possible to have a layout without having xanga premium? just wonderin…
LOL!!!
he captured a true xanga addict
ahahaha, dat iz very kewl!! i’m a freakin addicted 2 xanga!! haha, who cares. c ya laters =]
YOu are a bitch
Thanks John for bringing joe_x to our attention, wouldn’t have found him without you! And it just so happened that I was in a bad mood, and you brightened it right up! Thanks!!! Much <3
???
Way cool.
love your comics keep ‘em up!
