Well, I really wanted to say "fuckload" but my mom might read it.

Happy B'day! As a longtime Jefito lurker, I was thrilled when Popdose finally got up and running. I've loved it, however I have missed your writing Jeff. Here's to year 2!!!

Happy Birthday to Popdose, and a big thanks to Jeff for inviting me to play in the sandbox!

A buttload of jefitos. Thanks for the image and for rendering it into the permanent public record. An image now etched into my brain.

300 years from now the cultural anthropologists will title "The Popdose Chapter" of their "Pop Culture 303" textbook "A Buttload Of 'jefitos'."

We rule! Congratulations, us, but mostly, Jeff for building quite the team.

I'd read this site even if I didn't write for it, which is no small thing. Onwards and upwards in year two.

Happy Birthday. Here, I got you this:

(Hands Popdose a box)

... It's a digital copy of Melvin James' "The Passenger."

(Sees Jeff's blank stare)

It was the last thing you posted -- at my request -- before Jefitoblog went down. Huzzah!

Congrats on the anniversary Jeff. I cottoned onto Jefitoblog a few months before it imploded (naturally), and was thrilled when this site rose from its ashes. I appreciate the opportunity to have contributed an article and hope to be able to share more in the future.

Happy birthday and congratulations!
I stumbled onto this fantastic site not too long ago and have enjoyed it every day since. I am a fan of most types of music even though I consider myself a David Foster fan (try not to hold that against me), which is how I found Terje. From Terje's tireless Fozz posts, I started reading everyone's posts about music to politics to movies and beyond. I love this site and it is truly my favorite spot on the web. I tell others about it all the time. So, thank you Jeff and the other talented and humorous writers that make Popdose so amazing.

I didn't think that that the crafty writing on jefitblog could be topped. Popdose has a buttload full of jefitos!

Thanks for putting out a site whose "gimmick" is just original, quality content. Keep the good shit going.

And thank you, Dr. C. Tell a friend. In fact, tell twenty of them!

Happy Birthday, Popdose!
I found Jefitoblog thru Jason's site, which I found thru a friend's page, who found him from some accident. I've followed along for a long time and now check this blog every day. I have to say thanks to everyone for the all of the great content here. Please keep it up!

I think "Pop Politico: Sundays at midnight" has a nice ring to it...

Actually, your first comment was fine. I just like saying "niggler."

How 'bout this, then: "Suck it!"

Is this better: "Why do I remember our launch date as 01.15.08?"

Re: Letter from the Editor: Happy Birthday Popdose!

jefito — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 21:33:00 -0000

Nobody likes a niggler, Ted.

Why do I remember our launch date as 01.01.08?

Another thing I would add to the note is a blurb that came our way from a prestigious site endorsing us as not being "a bunch of jaded jag-offs." We like to have fun here. Heck, we love to have fun here, but for every ounce of snark, I believe we offer up a pound of gee-whiz (which is a lot nicer than a pond full of plain ol' whiz.)

The point is that if we're destined to become the spot on your internet dial that doesn't come off like they hate, and are much too cool for everything, I can live with that.
