19 April 2003: "The Puce of Clubs"

Those of you in the habit of reading BuzzMachine or a small victory may be familiar with a blogroach who goes by the name of "Puce"; well, Jim Treacher informs us that "Puce" now has his own blog. It's worth taking a look at, just to witness the exercise in utter incoherency.

Now, I don't think for a moment "Puce" is for real; nobody who genuinely speaks English that badly could possibly understand how to work Blogger, use the word "chortle" (albeit misspelt) or come up with a creative euphemism like "damp ladypart." And nobody who professes that much distaste to all things American would work in what looks suspiciously like a Reservoir Dogs reference.
Incidentally, puce is French for "flea," but I think that's either coincidence or a smokescreen; this guy wouldn't make sense in French either. Perhaps he just went with the most repulsive colour he could think of and decided to use that as a handle.

This joke is going to get really old really fast, so have a "chortel" while it lasts.
