Best Gay Blog 8

Jon is a 26 year old China Town junkie (although notes he’s not a heroin addict) from the big apple. He describes his blog as having a dark twisted sense of humor. Many of his entries are created early in the morning and have the prose of that fresh morning feeling.

The first thing I often do when reviewing a blog is read the most recent 5-10 entries to just get a general sense of what’s happening in this person’s life, style of writing, and a sense of “now”. When I did that reading Jon’s blog, “The FashMagSlag” I knew that this was someone with good writing skills, but I felt like I was just skating on the surface of what could have been some creative topics. It wasn’t until I read a recent entry where Jon admitted, “I am completely aware that this post is as boring as boring can be. I've been having trouble coming up with interesting posts as of late. But, there are some good ones here and there if you feel like browsing through my archives.” And so as a respectful visitor, that is exactly what I did…and behold I found a few gems. My favorite is an entry called “If I ever…” In this entry, as a Japanese American, Jon shares some frustrating (and very funny) experiences he has even in the melting pot of all cities, New York. I could clearly picture the scene and hear the voice in his head responding to the situation. It was cleverly written and had me laughing out loud.

Go check it out yourselves to find that and the other jewels in Jon’s life (including having sex with a bear – no not the type who steals your tent). Other recent topics include the hair styling of Prime Minister Koizumi, getting off with or without gay porn, and a Karaoke night.
