Julia: "Mary Crossed The Line"

A kind reader has sent along the following correspondence. By the way, the [REDACTED] mentioned here is not [REDACTED], nor is it [REDACTED], and certainly not [REDACTED], who is shifting paradigms, nor [REDACTED], who said that Jackles is SUPER-NICE in person!

hi! I think your post about mary's comments about the great lakes is incredibly rude and mean.

what are we as readers supposed to think when you want us to believe you're nice but then you go ahead and post something like that?

and, when you commented at SXSW about girl on girl hostility on the internet, i didn't think your point was that you are the most flagrant displayer of such actions--what are we readers supposed to take away from that sequence of events?

I'd love an honest answer because I am sersiously confused. Thanks

I hear you, [REDACTED]. But so you know where I'm coming from: Mary crossed the line one too many times with me, and frankly, I was tired of it.

I don't know what to tell you. I'm human. Her attitude really pissed me off and I didn't want to pretend otherwise. That felt disingenuous to me. When I say good things, they're not fake. If I hadn't said anything, that might have been better, but it wouldn't have been telling the truth.

julia

Just a reminder, folks ... this woman is NICE!! She is SUPER-LOYAL to her friends! Meghan and Mary are her BFFs, she LOVES them, they are her SISTERS! That's why it's a-OK to publicly assail one of them and to do it in e-mail to a stranger as well. She is NICE, do you understand??!??!??!? She is retardedly nice!

  2. Ha! I only wrote that because she once described herself that way.

    Honest to God, is "not saying anything" not an option for this woman? By choosing not to slag Mary publicly, she would have been disingenuous?

    Her insanity truly knows no bounds.

  6. She's insane. First of all, is Mary not knowing about/wanting to go to Chicago really that insulting to her? I'm from LA and get constant criticism from my NY born and bred friends. I don't lash out at them! Bizarre to be over protective of a freaking anytown USA suburb, in my opinion.

    Second, I love how she tries soo sooo hard to come across as nice and reasonable after she does something crazy.

    It just goes to show how completely out of touch she is with herself and how she looks to everyone else. She really does believe that every sinlge thing is attributed to someone's actions. Sad, sad, sad

  7. I feel bad making fun of Julia's @ tweeting celebs, since I regularly @ Christopher Walken for NO REASON.

    That said, Jibjab is flailing her intarwebs arms about, screeching for the waning attention of an audience that was built on a firm foundation of ADD. Her 15 mins are up, that's all there is to it. She's boring now, nobody cares. She peaked with that wired cover; I give her 6 months, tops, before people barely remember who she is.

  13. what are you talking about, jacy? she's an expert at "not saying anything," especially when she is asked about: her business model, freebies/payments from sponsors, harvard business school, CES/davos/b-day coverage, bravo pilot and, of course, rumors about mary leaving NS. the list goes on and on and on, but my point is that she's perfectly capable of keeping her mouth shut...

  14. Jilly Boo believes the entire universe and all its contents must revolve around her. SHE IS A STAR. The fact that upon close inspection that star is nothing but a ball of hot air should in no way diminish your capacity to believe she is worth orbiting.

    Mary committed the same crime as everyone else The Royal Julia publicly derides: failed to worship The Royal Julia. For Mary, and those before her, it is an unforgivable omission and must be punished by Jillcakes.

  22. Julia, you are SO RIGHT. Mary has crossed the line one too many times. Let me remind you of just a few of her many transgressions, so serious and so dire that I am surprised entire nations have not collapsed because they are so earth-shatteringly serious.

    1. She made you wear an ugly dress. (I hear that's how Rome fell.)
    2. She dissed your hometown. (Little known fact... that same insult began the Spanish-American war.)
    3. She calls you out on your bullshit. (This is what let to the downfall of Casesar, you know.)
    4. She became friendly with your detractors, even winning over a few fans. (She also found a cure for cancer in her spare time.)
    5. She is skinnier than you. (She's really sorry about that one. She'll try to go to four spin classes next week instead of five.)
    6. She left your joke of a business. (This is how communism started.)

    ReplyDelete
  23. I cannot wait for mary to weigh in, either directly or in code!

    Cannot wait.

    These two are the unwitting stars of my new favorite soap opera. I really honestly beleive they think their appeal is something beyond mere guilty pleasure, behind-the-scenes trainwreck. But it's not.

    Julia, baby? Congratulations. You ARE the star in the new Hills/City. You just don't know it!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Julia is not a star. She is a black hole:

    * A black hole is a super dense object that has an intense gravitational pull.

    * Everything that falls into a black hole by passing the event horizon, including light, will eventually reach the singularity of a black hole. Before something reaches the singularity it is torn apart by intense gravitational forces. Even the atoms themselves are torn apart by the gravitational forces.

    * Imagine a star which is much more massive than our sun, and which has a mass, called the critical mass, which is large enough to cause a black hole to form. What keeps this star from collapsing onto itself and becoming a black hole? The answer is that there is an intense pressure caused by nuclear reactions within the sun. When the fuel that feeds the nuclear reactions gets used up the massive star cannot support itself anymore. It then collapses to form a black hole.

    * It is interesting to note that when a black hole is formed by a collapsing star it is actually impossible to watch the final steps of the formation of the black hole from a stationary external reference frame. An external reference frame is a place where one watches the formation of the black hole from far away, like an astronomer on Earth. In addition, it is impossible to see any object fall into a black hole. This is not to say that everything appears to freeze just before entering a black hole. As an object falls into a black hole it gets increasingly dimmer and dimmer from the point of view of an outside observer. By the time an object gets to the edge of a black hole, it will be completely black.

    Okay I'm beating this analogy to death.

  30. I hope Mary doesn't weigh in (no pun intended!) on this latest immature tirade from Our Only Human Lady of Nice. She should just ignore her, go do her own thing, and do it better. Mary has shown a modicum of class before (like linking to Julia's original insult in her own travel post) so I really hope she doesn't stoop to Julia's classless level of immaturity.

    ReplyDelete
  31. please someone tell me they lonked this post to mary. I have no doubt that contrary to what she says, Julia reads this.
    But it's possible Mary turned us off and kept us off. (it's called integrity, Julia).

  32. This has all the appeal of a fake drama on a VH-1 reality show that they will never get. I'm calling bullshit, early and often.

    Also, I watched about a minute of her latest video, and there is a simple explanation for the bloat. That girl is slurring drunk.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Here's my 2 cents:
    Yoolia crossed the line by emailing the reader; especially with this line, "Mary crossed the line one too many times with me, and frankly, I was tired of it."

    Sometime shortly after Davos, I believe, Mary said that the NS "ladies" were going to work on being more honest about their relationship with each other on their respective lifecasts. She said all 3 agreed that it came off as phoney at times. I'm obviously paraphrasing but you get the picture. This never happened. Meghanaise and Mary have continued to protect Yoolia by not airing any dirty laundry, while Yoolia can't stop from emailing/tipping/and writing about her issues with Mary.

    Mary has not said a word about yoolia even thought yoolia blabbed, while drunk, about her upcoming departure. So, now, Yoolia comes off as even more of a raging cunt then she did previously. Well, maybe not, but it's certainly even worse considering the reserve evidenced by mare.

  37. Not sure if this has been brought up before, but do you think Julia's hatred of Mary has been enhanced by the fact that Mary is leaving Nonsociety and potentially taking a lot of sponsorships/ partnerships/ contacts/ freebies with her? It seemed like Mary was the one who cultivated the relationship with a lot of the clothing showrooms and beauty PR reps and now it seems like she's the only one involved with Kodak. She's even covering something called "The Streamy Awards" this week and it from how she describes it, it looks like she's doing something that Julia Allison would die to do - doing red carpet interviews, talking to tech/real celebrities, etc. etc. (she even works in a Kevin Rose mention!!)

    http://mary.nonsociety.com/post/89362174

    It looks like Mary Rambin is leaving... and taking all the perks of Nonsociety with her, and THAT is what galls Julia the most. What's she left with? Free juice? She clearly doesn't have the work ethic it takes to form and maintain those business relationships on her own. If Mary did take the gravy train with her, that would be the ultimate coup.

    ReplyDelete
  38. From watching the video Mary didn't really do a thing wrong. Suggesting Chicago beaches for spring break is a little weird. All I know about the great lakes is how polluted they are. If this is a common misconception about Chicago there's no need to be such a bitch about it.

    I loathe Mary more than I loathe Julia, but Julia is definitely in the wrong and looking waa-aaa-aay hypocritical here.

  43. "... I will buy anyone who has the balls to meet me in person in New York at least two beverages of their choice. Coffee, wine, tequila … blueprint cleanse? Blueprint cleanse with vodka? Whatever you want..."

    That was Julia, exactly one week ago. Since then she's had like one good night's sleep and three different change sof direction. I think she's actually in real mental/emotional distress... And whether they're mad at her right now or not, or sick of her or not, Meghan and Mary are closest to her and need to get her some help.

  44. I love Mary's post about the Streamy Awards. So many subtle jabs...

    "Have you heard of the Streamy Awards? Think the Emmys for original online video content. This Saturday is the inaugural show, and I’m so excited to go! [just me. not julia or meghan]

    I’ll be covering the event for Kodak, which is a little scary because I’ve never done the whole interviewing people on the red carpet. But! I get to do it my way :) [my way... not julia's]Kodak will have their resident bloggers doing the traditional stick mic interviews while I will be floating around making videos with web celebs. [web celebs like Kevin Rose?] So basically I’ll be getting paid to do what I love. Good times. [operative words: GET PAID]

    TMI was submitted, but unfortunately wasn’t nominated. [I know. It's crap.] Check out the nominees here. You’ll see all of the traditional categories, and then there’s “Best Ad Integration.” You know what, it deserves a shout out because it’s not always easy to incorporate products how you would use them and make the sponsor happy. [look! I am actually disclosing what exactly I am doing with Kodak for this event!]

    Let me know if there’s anyone you’re dying to see a video of. Kevin Rose, Gary V, Felicia Day, Joss Whedon, Jake & Amir, and a few BFD celebs are nominated too (Eva Longoria Parker, Megan Mullaly, Rosario Dawson, etc).[Did I mention Kevin Rose?]

    If you’re in LA and want to be there for the first ever Streamys, you can buy tickets here.

    Now what am I going to wear…."

    Problem with personalities like Julia, and I've worked with "like Julia" personalities in a clinical capacity, is that they don't respond to public or private interventions or even simple offers of help. In fact, the reaction to those kinds of offers, is often incredibly dramatic and potentially devastating.

    **Notice I left off any clinical or diagnostic stuff. This is not the place to do it, nor can we pin a definitive diagnosis on someone via the interwebs.

  47. Christan - what publicity? If she is providing some fake fodder for attention, how much attention is it really getting her? Comments from dozens of readers here? Are we the audience for her online reality show? Is this is what she's settling for - director of her own online drama - after her Bravo deal didn't pan out? Seems beyond pathetic to me: ruining friendships and dragging your supposed "best friend/sisters/business partners" through the mud for some attention from the peanut gallery. Of course, I would not put this kind of trashy behavior past a slimeball like Julia Baugher.

  49. I just made an interesting discovery. There is an IP address: 167.127.24.69
    that has been frequenting my site. I used this website to trace it: http://www.ip-adress.com/ip_tracer

    (Google maps image posted on my blog.)

    It comes up to be right around where Julia is from, and usually these IP traces will show *kind of* where it's coming from (ie: I live in LA but my own IP shows up about 5 miles from where I actually am).

    I wonder if it's her family... RBNS... IDK if you have a way to check these things but I would be curious to know if you have this IP also.

    It could also be someone who knew her. Or entirely random. But it's interesting. Verrrrry interesting.

  50. Let's take bets!

As they are the only things that are ever really your own? And therefore hers?

    Or! Does the Queen reclaim her throne? Is it time for Julia allison - I founded this bitch Nonsociety, bitches! - to settle all the scores? To expose all the traitors? And re-take what is hers? Does Julia go nuke-lee-ah tonight?

    Re: Your Plea to "Haters"

    Dear Julia,

    We hear you, Julia. But so you know where we're coming from: You have crossed the line with the public one too many times, and frankly, people are tired of it.

    I don't know what to tell you. We're human. You piss us off and we don't want to pretend otherwise. That would feel disingenuous. When we have good things to say, for example about Mary at times, they're not fake. If we don't say anything when you cross the line, you might like that better, but it wouldn't be telling the truth.

    So please don't ask again why you have critics that speak out against you on the Internet, since now you know just how we just feel (except you speak out against your own friends in addition to other people but that's another story). And remember, just like you're not attacking womankind when you criticize Mary, our criticism of you is also not about bashing women. It's about telling the truth.

    ReplyDelete
  79. May I ask a sincere question, dumb though it may be... how many of you really believe Julia reads this site on any kind of regular basis?

    ReplyDelete
  80. I can't speak for this site but I know exactly how many times Julia has been to my own. And I assume she would come here more often.

    It was hundreds of page views and it was almost daily.

    I posted screenshots once maybe a month ago and it was almost 400 page views at that point.

  81. amazing when things JA complains about can always be completely reframed and switched around to her, to point out when she's perpetuated the same behavior... aka, ALWAYS!

    ReplyDelete
  82. @Scary Mary: thanks for your response.

    I ask because I think most people, including the writers of this blog, seem to believe Julia visits regularly. I have a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that a sane human-being can visit a site like this, read through its comments, and continue on with the inane crap that brought about RBNS to begin with. You see, I am baffled. I would think she'd have to purposefully ignore this site in order to continue going on with her crazy headband/pink pink pink/cupcakes/I'm so happy posts.

  84. @Dahling

    Julia has said she's come here. And she e-mailed the site to say she would welcome a meet-up and conversation (and then retracted that). In her first insomniac video she said she's been reading comments on the site as well. She did not mention it by name, but it seemed pretty clear, what with the e-mail. And yeah, I believe she comes often. Her and Mary both seem to respond to things written here, quite quickly. Mary, in a positive way of handling criticism with grace and upping her content, Julia usually by stomping her tackily-clad feet and making up a lame quote.

    Obsessively. Most of the NY media types subscribe to google alerts on their names and read anything and everything written about them.

    Julia is hardly a NY media type (she is of the hanger-on variety), but she shares all the same neuroses, with a healthy side dish of batshit nuts. Plus, she has no work ethic, and this is a repository of material she can blog about.

  88. Well said, Ineffable!

    Julia admitted in her first crazed video that she visited this site. And we've drawn many parallels with things that she posts that directly address things that have been said/brought up here. I don't believe for a second that she visited, got her soul crushed and then vowed to never visit here again. This website is a twisted version of her ultimate dream... a place completely devoted to ALL JULIA ALL THE TIME. ME ME ME ME ME ME ME. What narcissist can resist a place completely devoted to them? It's not the kind of attention she wants, but it's a tiny shred of attention nonetheless, and about all she can muster these days. We are the tiny audience for her crappy personal online reality show. Talk about a microchannel!

  91. Oh, and on the IP thing, we just don't want to go there. For one thing, it's meaningless to trace IP addresses in a major city -- it could be anyone. But if we're going to rail on Jackles for invading peoples' privacy constantly, which she does, then we would be hypocritical to start trying to track people down via their IP addresses. We're just not into it.

    And oh yes, I have a 60-hour-a-week job, one that requires being online almost constantly, so again, doing RBNS is easy and requires very little time or effort.

    Thanks for asking, though!

    ReplyDelete
  92. I didn't really think of an IP address as an invasion of privacy because, correct me if I'm wrong because I *don't* know for sure but: without a court order you can't get someone's specific information like address etc. from an IP. Only a general area.

    Since this seems to be a hot button issue, I would love it if someone could explain it to me?

    Or email me so as not to piss off the commenters who want funny funny funny all the time... either way.

  94. SM: I just think it freaks people out when you start publishing IP addresses. We don't want commenters to be weirded out and think that we would see how often they're coming on or from where, that's all. We want this to be a happy snarky place, not a nasty snarky place.

  95. Thanks James.

    And Jacy I was going to point out the same thing you did. It usually takes a minute to post a quick comment and I'm sure it takes not much longer than that to write up a brief post. And I totally agree with you on the IP thing.

  96. It's not a hot button issue. You're the only one who cares about it. Could you please learn when to stop beating a dead horse so this blog could go back to being enjoyable? This is why most people have been ignoring you in the first place. This isn't a place for you to come and squat so you can promote your blog.

    ReplyDelete
  97. I didn't see the IP addy post as a big deal. The average person (and even the 'hacker') can't do anything with an IP address, it can belong to anyone, and typically they're dynamic and re-assigned regularly. I don't agree with invasions of privacy but I'm aware the intent there was to compare if there were many visits here from whomever that was, not in order to have people stalking someone down by their IP.

  99. No offense, but I come here to read the snarky and sometimes hilarious comments. It's amusing when Julia's many hypocrisies get pointed out here on a daily basis. The commenter-on-commenter bashing and off topic discussions kind of bore me to tears. Can we please get back to discussing the monumental topics at hand, like the state of Julia's nails, her current level of bloat or whether or not she is wearing fake bangs today?

  100. Ok, back to the fun stuff - this photo! Julia doing some kind of jazz hands pose *standing* on the counter of the Apple store Genius bar!!! This is right after her talk at Parson. Standing on a store counter in her dirty shoes that have been walking on NYC streets, standing where people put their computers/handbags/do their work:

    Megan: I wish I were still a virgin.
    Meghan & Me [simultaneously]: WHAT!??!?! WHY!???
    Megan: Because you don't know what you're missing if you don't have it.
    Me: Or you could go my route and just not have it for so long you don't remember what it's like.
    Meghan: You're re-virginized.
    Me: Yeah, it's like when you're signed into your bank account online and it logs you out if it's been inactive for more than ten minutes.
    Megan: Ways to know you've spent too much time staring at your taxes today.
    Me: Ugh, totally.

  106. I saw that BunnyBingo! I think Jacy even said she would not post it because it would bring on too many nasty comments! But yeah - GROSS. It reminded me of the photo of Julia sitting on top of the concession counter during her Oscar movie marathon... putting her ass on a counter where food is served. YUCK. Doing crazy ass shit in public - like standing on the Genius Bar - is the reason I think Julia is completely batshit insane and I have zero sympathy for her. What a sociopath.

    Scary, it's been noted by all of us that you write a blog and wish for us to visit it. Rest assured those of us who are interested will. There's no need for daily reminders and cross linking.

    This is not an attack. I love all my children. But you gotta stop trying so hard.

  109. Yep, my issue with the counter top posing would be from a purely hygienic/rude behavior POV. Who does that? It's where someone has to work!
    I understand posting the pic might have invited lots of nasty comments about Julia's appearance etc tho. I am curious as to whether Mary has/will respond to the email. It astounds me that Julia publicly attacks her friends. (surely she knows these emails will be made public?)

    ReplyDelete
  110. Oh, BunnyBingo, that is just more of Julia Baugher's HEEEE-larious fodder for that screenplay that she promised herself she'd write this year. I am sure once she posts a Craigslist ad and finds an intern to do all the writing for her, she'll sell it and be a huuuuuuge star just like Diablo Cody.

    I appreciate your point but I have not posted any links to my page here today, I simply stated in my first comment today at the end of it, that I posted another vid for those who care. My being here at all or commenting at all is not necessarily promoting my page. Anyway whatevs, I get your point and I respect it. Mostly. If something is relevant I should be able to post it just like anyone else can come in here and post links to any other site that has something relevant. I'm not even posting links. How many links are on this page? And how many are pointing to my site? That's all I'm saying.

    BLERG.

  113. SM - You have made about 3 or 4 references to your blog today. Jesus has more patience than I do. You're a hypocrite and a phony who employs every tactic Julia utilizes to gain attention. You're no different than she is and you're just as annoying. You self-promote, you ingratiate, you balk at criticism. You don't hate Julia. You are Julia.

  116. On a more thoughtful level... for ME at least it isn't self-promotion that bothers me. I live in LA where everywhere you go people are self-promoting, networking. Hopefully if all that self-promotion gets you anywhere you don't use the opportunity to create a mess like NS. It's her everything else that offends me. But to each his/her own.

  119. This is downright absurd. This letter can not be real. If it's not real, what is she trying to gain/prove? (Scary thought.)

    If this is real, Julia is a complete moron. Even dumber than I gave her credit for previously. And it is pretty classy that Mary keeps turning the other cheek. But at some point, she has to walk away from this for real.

    Jacy, I think you're kind of awesome. Don't let all the stupid ass comments get you down.

    And, Ineff, that comment at 4:51 was brilliance. That's totally why I come here.

  120. Well. We used to. Then RBNS took it down because, well Jacy said my link caused problems? haha ok. Um. Yeah. *shrugs*

    I continue to refer people here via links on my page when I post relevant things from this site. So it's not as one sided as you think. Actually, maybe it is but in reverse. Don't know/care.

  128. While I don't publish the private email exchanges I receive via email, this isn't the first email JA has purportedly sent out about this topic. All of it smacks of bullshit attention-mongering, and to the smallest of audiences, namely, her detractors.

    This is fake controversy, folks. This is what you do when no one else will write about you. This is an attention whore being starved of attention, save for her detractors, which she considers "readers."

    ReplyDelete
  129. Something that has crossed my mind a few times is... I wonder if her parents have seen the Insomniac #1 video. If my child, of ANY age, tossed the word "suicide" around, that would be WITHOUT A DOUBT, time for SOME kind of intervention.

    That is serious. Yet fathers voicemail sounded like he was clueless.

    Or careless. Who knows.

    ReplyDelete
  130. SM, I do wonder sometimes whether her parents understand what it is she does in "The City".

    ReplyDelete
  131. BunnyBingo, they supposedly read her shit and she once whined to an interviewer that her mother stopped speaking to her for a period of time because of something that was written about her on the interwebz.

    Question for Baugher: Did you ever put on your (re)blog that Julia had emailed you some tips about Mary (I would assume that's to get the nasty attention off of her stupid self), or am I misremembering?

    ReplyDelete
  132. I just think that throwing the word suicide around is something that would strike panic into the heart of most parents. This isn't her writing some asinine column that her mother finds offensive or something. This is their daughter on the internet falling apart on camera talking about thoughts of suicide by paperclip.

    Maybe they didn't see it. Or maybe they did and are apathetic and that's how she ended up the way she is.

    Who knows.

    ReplyDelete
  133. This post is exactly why Julia has no friends to speak of.

    ReplyDelete
  134. If I were Jacy, this kind of comment nonsense would make me think twice about continuing to write for this blog. The original RBNS has all but abandoned the blog it seems. And RG posts whenever she can which, unfortunately, is not that often.

    Frankly, I think it's time for all of us to take a break from this thread, do something else, and come back when we have something to discuss besides IP addresses, unrelated blogs, and criticisms of each other. And, no, I'm not signaling any one out; I think we've all been guilty of nastiness towards one another and RBNS/Jacy/RG in these threads.

    Also, I'd MUCH rather discuss the events of JA during the past 72 hours. I think Jacy has done a superb job of bringing us "breaking news" and it would be awesome if we could return to the times of ole' when we ALL (and I mean everyone with a recognizable handle in this thread) got along and dished dirt about the subject that originally brought us here.

    ReplyDelete
  135. I kinda thought we were getting back on track?

    Well anyway, worth a mention.. someone brought up how Julia commented about Shira being "so young", when it seems it's really that she's young(er) and has accomplished what Julia only dreams she had by now.

    Nothing funnier than Ashton "won't answer her tweets" Kutcher interviewing Shira for his BlahGirls site & tweeting a link to her twitter. That Shira just seems to get everything JA wants. I couldn't speculate but I'd think this contribute to the most recent down cycle quite a bit.

    ReplyDelete
  136. TJ--I usually love your input but this thread is not bad to this casual reader. Some entertainment, some dissent, whatever. It's an opinionated bunch and everyone has at least articulated valid viewpoints. As far as the internet goes, this seems civil. We even have Baugher weighing in. I say: carry on!

  139. *Oh, I love dissent, 8:17. I was hoping we could get away from all the IP drama, that's all. But it's not my blog, thread, or space and we all must roam it how we see fit. I'd just rather talk about the cunty Yoolia Igcrazias email!

    ReplyDelete
  140. Gosh you know, she's a mess right now but imagine how she's going to be feeling as the years go by and the looks continue to fade? All her "value" is in her appearance, and she's set that tone for much of her teen and adult years. There's only so much you can do with the plumping and injecting and whatever before you start looking like a too shiny, plasticene science project. By that point your mental state is so far gone reality basically ceases to exist. She is really NOT going to take the process of aging well, and you can see that now when she's still quite young. She needs to recognize this and consult a professional, not just a business empowerment life coach (who knows if that's even in the equation anymore, though).

    That Ashton tweet must be killing her.

    ReplyDelete
  143. I found Jill (age 28)'s method of introduction of Shira(25) at SXSW rather belittling. "Here is a very LITTLE lady of the internet JUST TRYING to get by" (okay, I'm paraphrasing, but we all remember). The passive aggression was relentless during their talk in the blogger lounge. So, yeah, Anon 8:35, the swipe is coming, I'd say.

    ReplyDelete
  144. Just had this thought relevant to Julia's behavior and their sponsors...

    I vaguely recall their life coach being linked before she was simply being quoted constantly between her site and Mary's (Meghan, can't really remember). I kind of wondered if they had an arrangement with her too, because I just see that process as being so personal I didn't think people just announce/promote their life coaches so openly to the public. An attribution to a quote with "my life coach", I'd get, but the linking and constant name-dropping had me suspicious.

    Anyway, I just think that for all these possible agreements/contracts, the aftermath from Julia's behavior has to be brutal for whatever expectations these people have.

    Promoting Blueprint Cleanses --> Constant vocalizing of body issues, unhealthy eating habits, and unhappiness with self and weight. Her association with the product brought it to the attention of many sites they'd probably prefer didn't know they existed. Never mind the recent article that made it look terrible and its adopters look mad.

    Promoting Kodak --> Blogging about having lost a brand new CANON camera.

    Promoting Cisco --> Don't remember this exactly but I think Gawker said something about the networks coming up in MA's cribs videos not being Cisco at all or her not having Cisco products.

    Promoting Life Coach --> Again, not sure about this. But if you aren't improving as a person and instead are constantly having these random outbursts of callous behavior that extends to your close relationships and professional life, that's not the best advertisement for the individual who's been (supposedly) helping you get over roadblocks to achieve personal and business success and contentedness.



    And really, anytime you're even remotely starting to consider sympathy towards Julia, just read that MediaBistro article again. It's only about to be a year since that article and yet, what's different? Then consider her history, before that article even existed. Nothing new at all.

  146. A little late to the party, but...has Julia ever been to visit Mary in Houston?

    It seems she only deigns to visit Austin because that is where all the "cool" kids are hanging out. She bitched about the food and the weather the entire time that she was there, and clearly (from the video) knew very little about it other than Sixth Street and the Hyatt (or wherever).

    It cracks me up how many people want to declare that this site is over. While Baugher remains the original, this site does the hard labor, and if some trolls come by to troll, well, everyone gets over it.
