We love Rachel Riley and here's a blog to prove it

Post by Daniel H »

With the permission of Mr. Reams I am here to promote my new blog dedicated to the one and only Rachel Riley.

http://weloverachelriley.blogspot.com/

I'm not obsessed, or a mentalist, or a stalker - I am merely an admirer of beauty. Alright, I am slightly mental, but that's neither here nor there.

Anyway, bookmark it and check it daily if you see Miss Riley through the same eyes as myself. You won't regret it!

PS. Charlie has assured me there would be worse players on Apterous than myself, so maybe I'll give it a go.

I have to say, as Rachel Riley blogs go, this one is remarkably non-creepy.

I bet she'd find it creepy.

I like it. I like the way the only labels used represent what colour Rachel was wearing, and I like the lack of any kind of editorial text in the daily updates. It's quite strange and uncompromising, but has a definite purity of vision.

I hope there's going to be more than just pictures of her in her outfits every day, because in fairness, they do seem to be on a cycle at the moment.

And I've seen some of the September recordings and while I won't divulge results, the dress cycle seems to be remaining in place until further notice.

Having said that, there aren't any more recordings until September, so hopefully Rachel will have purchased a new wardrobe by then. ;) :) :D

No, it's definitely creepy.

You have to remember he's probably naked while he's updating the thing.

You should see what I get to when I'm editing the wiki.

I disagree that it's creepy. Then again, I suppose I would.

Stuff like this is creepy:

Yes, you're quite right... that's very creepy indeed.

Great stuff Daniel H. That rachelriley.org site is pretty gay, but yours is cool. Nice and simple, good quality images.

Great site, keep up the good work.

This is fucking creepy, especially since you effectively have a restraining order.
If I suddenly have a squirming baby on my lap it probably means that I should start paying it some attention and stop wasting my time messing around on a Countdown forum

What?

Has she seen this?

The only words on that site are, "We love Rachel Riley," and all it's got is pictures on it!

That is so robotic!

In fact, it gives me an idea. Watch the forum, everyone.

Oh my God. Please don't tell me it's a thread entitled "We love Drew Carey".

I think it's pretty mean to suggest Drew Carey is robotic, Kirk.

Cheers mate. Yeah, that other site is atrocious. If anybody thinks my blog is creepy, go and read some of the stalkeresque fanfic over there and look at the photoshops of Rachel's head onto a naked body. Weirdos.

I was going to detail my daily trip to her house to look in her bins on each entry, but once I read the first couple of accounts back to myself I realised it wasn't that interesting.

In what way does a website consisting solely of photographs qualify to be described as a blog?

I believe 'phlog' is the preferred terminology.

No. Anonymity is wonderful.

Only on a Countdown forum would the teminology of the word blog be called into question rather than just admiring beauty...maybe it isn't a conventional blog. This is a new dawn - a Rachelution; a Rileyaissance, if you will.

I'm off to be sick at the fact I just thought of and posted that.
