Dear Readers,
When writing to or about Bwog, many of you refer to us as BWOG. Although our logo is in all caps, we prefer to be written as “Bwog,” like a name, not an acronym. It’s not a big deal or anything, but sometimes it bugs us.
Love,
The Editors

@But is Bwog/the Bwog arthrous? (see site header)

@Anonymous what if i dont capitalize pompous assholes? will that make u guys feel better?
@haha the question that i’m surprised no one has asked is, why the hell did a significant enough majority of bwog-makers think that this was a big enough deal to warrant ONE THIRD of their daily posting? if you have people referring to your website by name, be happy. don’t nitpick them for how they capitalize it!!
@hey #30, STFU
@do it bwow me
@Yo Lydia Why not have the best of both worlds? Small-caps: elegant, refined, and both capitalized and non-initialistic at the same time!
@... Sometimes I write caps so it’s more noticeable… that way if your staff is skimming comments they’ll know it’s addressed to them… that was my rationale… i don’t feel strongly either way tho…
And lydia, anything can cause vitriol on the bwog… you should know that by now haha
P.S…. i switched it up just for ya’ll
@DHI Fuckin’ D.C. Sports Bog. I am really out of it today.
@Lydia Wow guys, I had no idea this little note would arouse such vitriol. Really, we only meant it to be a small expression of preference, not some whiny complaint. Feel free to call us what you want if you feel so strongly about it.
@hey bwog suck my dick….Bwog. I didn’t cleverly use “BWOG,” but u can still suck my dick.
@wait a sec i get it. bwog. like blue and white blog.
shit. that’s great.
@seriously? it took you until just now to get that?
@for the late bloomer HAHAHAHA!!!
@DHI It’s my understanding that the intending spelling is BWOG, but with the the W in white text, so that it reads B OG unless you highlight it. This is a tribute to the Washington Sports Bog.
@really I think their alternative of “bloody wall of gore” is pretty creative.
@ok... Stfu, B.W.O.G.
@meh change your goddamn banner then, hypocrites.

@wow from now on, let’s only refer to BWOG as “BWOG”
unless this is a cunning scheme whereby BWOG actually really wants us to call them BWOG
in which case, let’s call them…
bWOG
@dear BWOG, This is the best BWOG post ever!
Don’t you realize that if you tell people not to use BWOG, then they’re only going to use BWOG even more?
Eh, BWOG?
Weren’t you ever wiseass kids?
Oh yeah, you go to Columbia.
@hmmm Bitches

Gossip?
@ummm The Blue and White’s Online Garbage?
@dear editors, get over yourselves.
thanks!!
@this comment!! will exclaim things!!!!!
@LOL Love you #9.
I thought BWOG did stand for something? Let’s make an acronym for BWOG!
@!!! this post best represents everything that I hate about bwog
@Why don't you read some other blog then, okay sweetie? The creators or administrators have every right to specify whatever they want about it, and you as readers fussing about this simple statement are the truly pretentious ones.
I fully support this anyway, since acronyms annoy me. Every single student group around here is some stupid forced acronym.
@The King of Spain They’re right. It’s not spelled BWOG, it’s spelled “pedantic douchebags.”
@sure alrighty, then, BWOG.
@I love Bwog.
@so... …you bug us sometimes, and we bug you sometimes! It all works out!
Stop bitching BWOG, and take it like a man!
@this post makes me want to bitch-slap BWOG.
@slow news day? …
@hmm OK – Oll Korrect
why don’t you change the banner then?
