Really Worried

By Nelson

Mel found ReallyWorried.com. It’s a site where people can share their worries. Seems to consist of people asking for and receiving advice about things like health and money. In a stroke of lunatic genius, however, they’ve added a “Current Affairs” section. I think we know what comes next.

Really Worried about Ulrika Jonsson
She is pregnant (once again) with her fourth child. Her other three children are from three different fathers.

Really Worried about Amy Winehouse
She is always in the papers for drink, drugs and self harming. Her husband is currently remanded in custody.

I’ve been worrying about Frodo Baggins in that scene from that film where Frodo Baggins gets into danger. You know the bit where he’s on the horse with that bloke from Aerosmith’s daughter and she’s riding along and Frodo is all blue and flopping about and you’re clutching the sofa and screaming “OI ARWEN! YOUR HOBBIT’S GONE WABBY!” and you worry that he might die? Damn. I barely slept a wink last night.

Entertainingly, it appears that the chap who runs the site showed up commenting on the “About” page. He says “I don’t get what you are saying about the site. Please explain”. Can it possibly be that he doesn’t find some of the worries hilariously, arse-bendingly daft? Either that, or he’s just trying to generate a bit more traffic. Here you go chap.

Also, he’s the absolute spit of Harry Hill. Gaze upon the face of Richard Rubin. Quality.

    Ha ha! It’s just like SpeakYou’reBrane only you can talk back to the idiots! I know what I’m doing all day today…

    That’s brilliant. I expect it’s a result of the government promoting homophones.

    The moral is simple. Don’t be a non-worrier.

    I think people must be taking the piss - please tell me they are…

    Given that the author calls themself “bumrage”, I’d say it’s a safe bet.

    It worries me that you think I look like Harry Hill. If I’m not mistaken he is bald, wears big glasses and has a manic expression on his face.

    You worry too much :)

    That’s why they call me Richard ‘RealyWorried’ Rubin aka Britain’s Most Worried Man

    See. Now I’m really worried about why your name doesn’t appear above your comments unless I edit out the single quotes.

    Ah. Sorted it. I replaced them with HTML entities instead. Shonkeh.

    Now, see, I started off mocking them all and now I’ve got sucked in and given some helpful advice as well. Damn this warm glow of usefulness!

    I’m really worried because my account got deleted after giving some “advice” to this plonker http://www.reallyworried.com/Worry.aspx?worryId=4523

    Today I’m worried about why Nicky refers to people who seek advice on my site as idiots? Care to comment Nicky?

  14. on 30 Nov 2007 at 12:41 pm   Richard "ReallyWorried" Rubin

    I also worry about why name doesn’t appear above my posts here?

  15. on 30 Nov 2007 at 1:21 pm   Nelson

    I fixed it to some extent.

    I think Nicky is referring to the large proportion of people who are worrying about pointless bumquack. They’re worrying about what they’re told to worry about instead of what’s actually happening.

    It’s like the idiots on HYS who are having a furious debate about Labour vs Conservative and believing the media pretense that it makes a wank’s worth of difference which shower of cunts you vote for. The media calls it “voter apathy” whilst the rest of us call it “none of the above”. How stupid do you have to be to believe that the political spectrum is bounded by Gordon Brown at one end and David Cameron at the other? Bookmark this site to find out.

    I like the idea of ReallyWorried.com. If it were my site I’d remove the “Current Affairs” section to avoid being swamped with Curtain Twitchers.

    It *is* a worry isn’t it?

  18. on 30 Nov 2007 at 5:58 pm   Nicky

    What Nelson said.

    I don’t think *all* the people who post on your site are idiots, Richard. Only the idiotic ones. Even you must acknowledge there is a proportion of them on your site. (And a proportion of pisstakers, for another matter.)

    A woman was worried about a cat getting tarmac on its paws, for chrissake. Just keep the cat in! It’s not hard, is it?

    OTOH there ARE people with geniune money or legal worries and I am doing my bit for them, all the while chortling at the ones who are scared that the rules for drink driving in LA will ever have any impact on their lives at all. It’s how I keep my karma balanced.

  19. on 30 Nov 2007 at 6:02 pm   Nicky

    What did you tell them, Momentum? I’m really worried I’ll never get to know what you wrote.

  20. on 30 Nov 2007 at 8:25 pm   Richard "ReallyWorried" Rubin

    I am worried about this Nicky bloke and his smart ass comments.

  21. on 01 Dec 2007 at 6:14 pm   Nicky

    I’m worried that with tits like these I still get mistaken for a bloke.

  22. on 02 Dec 2007 at 1:46 pm   Richard "ReallyWorried" Rubin

    That’s funny, sorry.

    This ReallyWorried site must surely be a parody. I mean this comment -

    “Some doctors have already been licensed to provide addicts with cocaine. And these government people are so called “experts.” Can someone please explain the logic.”

    can in no way been written with a straight face. Unless, of course, I’m giving people too much credit.

    Obviously I is a arse for joining a thread seven months late, but the front page there now has “Are YOU a funt?” written in the top corner….
