Last night I arrived at my dorm around 7. I walked in, greeted all the suitemates, and started putting my things away. Dmrt was in the common room along with DM so I walked out and started talking with them. I noticed my blog was up on Dmrt's computer which was cool, "Dmrt...checkin out my blog?" He just said something like he was checking it out yesterday. I started shooting at the mini basketball hoop in our common room while we were talking, when he burst out laughing. "Bhoov you have a comment on your last blogpost. Who is Carlos Wang?" Then he proceeded to read the comment that many of you have already seen:
"BHoov,
I am a blog "expert" and read tens to hundreds of blogs every day. The mindless drivel seen on this "supposed blogsite" just makes me furious. To be fair, it's not just you. In this day and age it seems everybody considers themselves a wordsmith, and thinks people like me want to hear about the boring and dull bullshit you are unfortunate enough to apprently live through every day. Keep these stories and old memories to yourself, because I can guarnantee you no one wants to read this rubbish. If you must tell someone, go to a cemetary and enlighten the graves with your experiences; at least you can't bore them to death.
Sincerely,
Carlos Wang
c.wang311@gmail.com"
While Dmrt was reading everyone was in the common room laughing over this crazy comment post. When I first heard the comment, I really didn't know what to think. I guess I just thought some idiot with too much time on his hands decided to make himself look like a jackass on my blog. My suitemates asked if I was going to write back because of course they wanted to see sparks fly with this one. I decided that I was going to write a very calm but insulting response. By the time I posted this response, 3 others from some of my close friends followed. Each of them said about the same thing. I posted this event on facebook to try and get more reinforcements against this blog expert. When I returned to the blog Mr. Wang had posted another comment which was much more intense than the first. I had a war on my hands here.
The bout lasted til 2 in the morning. I was sitting on my bed in my room thinking of a great comeback when Dmrt, TE, DM, and PP came in. They asked how it was going and then Dmrt kind of smiled. "Hey Hoovie, what was Carlos Wang's email again?" I looked it up under his comment, "c.wang311@gmail.com," I replied. "311 huh?" He said with another grin. "What room do we live in?" The lightbulb flashed in my mind, "Shit..311." Everyone burst out laughing all at once. I got punk'd plain and simple. Carlos Wang: created by TE (along with Wang's gmail account) and propagated by Dmrt and DM. A practical joke. The best practical joke I've ever been a part of..and I was the target. It was well planned and well executed so I have to tip my hat to them. They made all of you believe them too, lets be honest.
Carlos Wang: Born October 11, 2010---------Terminated October 12, 2010
Hope everyone enjoyed the show
