Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Ask and Ye Shall Receive

Thanks so much to those of you who have taken the survey so far. And thank you to those of you who took the time to leave additional comments, and say very nice things about me that make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I love you guys, too.

Some responses to your comments:

1) I have changed the way thumbnails work. When there is more than one thumbnail in a post, you can now go through all of them without returning to the main page, using previous and next pics on a single pic page. Does that make any sense? Well some of you asked for it, so hopefully those people will understand what I’m talking about.

2) I installed a plugin to try to make mobile viewing easier and faster for those of you who access the page on your PDA or cell, as requested. Please let me know if you like this or if you want it back to normal.

3) Some of you love the Leo posts, some of you not so much. I can appreciate both points of view, and I’ll try to keep the Leo posts to a minimum, but he’s my dog and I love him and I’m gonna post about him every now and then because he is so fucking badass.

4) I am not voting Republican. I don’t know where you guys got that idea.

5) To the girl who mentioned that my speaking voice is disappointing because it’s not “edgy” enough, um, I’m working on that with my Marlboro Lights every day. It’s gonna take a little longer than it takes to install a plugin, though.

See?

I listen, like a good girl.

If you haven’t taken the survey, please do so here.

  • In my opinion, you can post as many Leo pics as you want. Because yes, he IS so fucking badass. Not to mention completely adorable.

    And someone commented on your speaking voice??? Umm, okay. Pray tell, what constitutes an “edgy” voice anyway? Carry on.

  • Dude, it was me. I asked about the thumbnails. Rock on! Just got so much easier to keep up with Evil Beet and not neglect the small fry. I no longer have to remember which image was the last I viewed if I have to rescue the toddler standing on the bar after a climbing triumph. Sweet.

  • Why would a gossip blogger’s voting habits matter? On the other hand, why the mad rush to prove “cred” by disowning Republicans?

    Can we have a website – any website, please tell me the URL if you knwo of one – that doesn’t turn into red vs. blue please?

  • Keep the Leo posts!!! I love them… Of course, I’m obsessed with my dogs too, so I understand the need to tell everyone they’re the best!

  • I forgot to say this in the survey, but is there a way to change the names being prewritten in the name spot? It’s easy to post under someone else’s name because random ones show up. Not a huge deal, but I’ve seen comments under my name that I haven’t said.

  • Its your blog and you should do whatever the fuck you want=) I love leo, gossip and you. So have at it.

  • @Asta:

    That appear to be a bug in WordPress that I can’t quite figure out how to fix. I’m working on it, though.

  • i love leo and all his cuteness but i guess if people dont want to hear about him (which is lame) you should post links to the youtube videos of his badass-ness. just a thought…

  • I like hearing about your life more than I like hearing about Britney Spear’s life. You have a hot voice and a hotdog. Don’t let him ride on any boats called Titanic though.

  • I think you should be able to post about your dog as much as you want… it’s your fucking blog man! I love the site uber mucho!!! xoxo

  • Who cares. Anyone here knows that Brad is dating online now? Just saw his profile on millionaire&celeb dating site “W e a l t h y R o m a n c e. co m” last week. I am wondering what kind of relationship he is looking for on that site.

  • Fuck the haters, Beet. Leo rocks. Besides, don’t your dog posts generate a lot of comments? I’m too lazy to research it, but it seems like the dog posts always engage a lot of readers…for straight gossip, there’s TMZ & a lot of others. For the Evil Beet there’s only you.

  • Your Leo posts are more fun and interesting than whatever pointless thing Lindsay Lohan is doing. Keep it up!

  • Ok, can I be the one to say I don’t care for the Leo posts. If every posting was about the dog, I’d stop visiting (and this is my favourite blog).

    I’m sorry Beet, I think you are awesome, you crack me up consistently, I love when you rant and I love when you ramble on about some person you once met etc etc.

    That said, I LOVED LOVED LOVED it when you used to post pictures of cute baby animals instead of Anna Nicole Smith pictures so if you went back to doing that, I’d be on board (but not just little dogs, all kinds of baby animals).

    Beet, please don’t hate me and for all posters, please don’t flame me or tell me that I’m only hating because I must be fat and old.

  • why would anyone even rate how supposedly ‘edgy’ your voice is?? *mumbles* what a bitch…

    you’re awesome and urrrrrveryone on here knows it.

  • Oh, one more thing – can you get rid of those stupid posts about celebrity dating? I Hate them!!

  • Sheesh! First there was a commenter trying to guess your weight by the amount of “meat” you had on your fingers and now someone says your voice isn’t edgy enough? Apparently you can never please the fickle general public, but no matter what, Beet, your site will never be like his-whose-name-I-dare-not-speak. For that, I’m grateful.

  • Please keep up the Leo posts and the posts about your personal life. I love reading all the celebrity posts, but the Leo and personal life posts make me come back more often because it feels like I am gossiping with someone I know. It makes the blog more personal.

  • Plus, I will visit more of the advertisements if I feel like I am friends with the person who runs this blog.

  • hey beet- to answer #2 i would like it to go back to normal… the new page is annoying.

  • love the site but I usually enjoy it from my iPhone while I’m supposed to be working.. And I am hating the mobile version. The regular page shows up great on here but the mobile version is disgusting. Can you put up a link so I can choose to view the real version in its full glory? Thankssss…

  • I agree, I also enjoyed the layout of the old page, and the new mobile version is kind of lame. Also, I love the posts about your dog, he is so cute! :)

  • Great news all round! And you have a very sexy voice Beet, and thats coming from a straight girl :)

    Also, from previous comments I can see I’m not the only Leo fan, and we all know how much he means to you so maybe the non-Leo fans could just skip those posts?

  • I hate the new mobile plug in! I can’t see pictures any more on the main page on my blackberry and instead of seeing an entire page of news, I have to click on each story individually and that takes more time. I would love it if you put it back to how it was before. It was MUCH better! Thanks!
    PS – Love the Leo stories!

  • Can it go back to normal please? I liked it when I could just scroll down and see all the juicy gossip on one page…or maybe make another link that takes you to that on the other page? Also you should change the colors on the mobile page, they look like salmon depressing. This page is so much more Beet like.

  • aww beet you should be posting more about leo!! hes adorable and im sure my dog and him would be best friends if they new each other!!!
