Blogspot Birthday Blunder Bothers Bird


Outraged readers of world famous blogspot papasgotabrandnewblog have accused the controversial online journal of "milking" birthdays in order to reach its annual post quota. One reader in particular, a Ms Bird from Bristol, complained bitterly about the treatment her young daughter has received from the blundering blogspot.

"My daughter's birthday was reported 24 hours late in an article that makes a mockery of me and my daughter's celebration. I think it's outrageous."

A spokesperson for the blog was quick to jump to its defense.

"We agree" the spokesperson told a papasgotabrandnewblog reporter. "It's outrageous. Outrageously good, impishly apt, and perfectly plausible. The reader needs to understand the concept. Nobody likes to share their birthday so, in the event of two, we opted to delay reporting one of them. We’ll switch the order round next year. Furthermore, Robin Autumn now has the honour of being the first person to be affected by this situation and will now feature in the Papasgotabrandnewblog book of Records, £18.95 from all good bookshops. Finally, we wish Robin Autumn a very happy, first-time, 24-hour late birthday - Many happy returns of the yesterday!”

At the time of going to press Ms Bird was unavailable for comment. As readers can see from the picture, Robin Autumn was NOT amused.
