Some people asked for an update so yeah, so it's 2017 now. Donald Trump and legal marijuana.....well, at least we had one good change. I haven't looked at this blog since 2012. It actually took me 2 weeks to figure out how to log onto it, I forgot the password and account info.
I have one follower of the blog after 10 years. I'm assuming this person either died or doesn't use the account anymore. I think the most followers it ever had at once was 3.
I'm not proud of this blog at all. Looking back now, I went way overboard with it and I feel bad about much of what I posted. It's one thing to post a few pics and stories but this was way beyond that. I have my own problems with anxiety disorders which played a big role in it, I might get into that more another time.
If anyone is crazy enough to read through the whole thing, you might notice some stuff that doesn't make sense. I went through the blog and deleted a bunch of old posts back in 2012 and more of them recently. That's why some references won't make sense now. Some of the stuff was just plain dumb, overly mean or inappropriate in some manner. Heck, the whole thing was inappropriate...
I will say, I still find some of it to be quite funny, that's sort of what I was going for but much of it is just being nasty and mean and I regret that.
One thing I should make clear now is Bob was not a bad person. He was actually very nice if you could get him to speak. He was also very intelligent, like book smart intelligence. He was a slob of the highest order however and he had some mental issues. I know nothing about him now, haven't seen or heard anything since.
This blog has 210,000 views now, not sure how that happened. I have another unrelated internet site that I make a little money off of with google ads so I threw them on here. The ads are not doing well here. I earned a whopping 85 cents in the first 2 weeks. The click cost pay rate is very low for this blog. I think the inverted crosses, satanism and subject matter might have something to do with it.....
Anyway, I might post some random nonsense once in a while. I'm not really sure if anyone reads blogs much anymore. I don't even get the spam comments anymore and I have the comments wide open, there used to be lots of spam comments.

I just found your blog today. You should be proud of it. It's fucking hilarious.
Thank you for sharing your awful experience with Bob. Hope you are in a much better situation now. I hope Bob is too, although I doubt it.
Thanks. I'm doing better. I hope Bob is doing better too.
Just read your whole blog now, linked by a reddit post about idiot neighbors! Did you find a house? I hope so.
This is my favorite blog, having read through it many years ago. I still follow it via RSS. It's so funny - you might even find success by turning it into a small e-book.
I bought a house a while back but I sold it recently and moved to a different state.
Favorite? lol....I was going to delete the whole thing but figured I'll just trim it down and leave it here. I've got the $1.00 / month income happening.
Hi there! I just found this blog today on Reddit, and I was hooked! Crazy story man. Would love to keep hearing updates. How old are you, if you don't mind me asking?
Hello! I have followed your blog since it got famous on some "jerky boy site" in 2007-2009. It helped me come to terms with some adult issues myself and not being a slob despite my unemployment.
I might also have published the link on reddit.
Your blog is a masterpiece. You shouldn't have deleted any of it. After all, that stuff really happened, and you really were that person at one time. I'm glad you're doing better, and Bob... well, he's an internet legend.
How much in donations would it cost for you track down Bob, for old times' sake? I always wondered what happened to the old sickly alcoholic hoarder.
I just got linked here from Reddit the other day and I must say, I was completely blown away. This is definitely in my top 10 internet stories of all-time. The Legend of Bob was disgustingly engrossing and I ended up reading through your entire blog twice.
You don't have a subscribe button on your blog ya numpty
The Legend of Bob I found when you started writing it back in 2007. I recommend a ebook like the previous posted said.
Just found and read through the whole Bob saga! Loved it, and am weirdly excited that this all happened so close to me. This is a classic story with such evocative and hilarious descriptions, thanks for sharing it. Hope you're doing well!
