Crystal on 15 Feb 2008 12:05 am
I can think of one owner of a popular site who thinks she’s the shit and it drives me nuts!!!Every time I go to her site I’m like “aahhh” she’s such bitch just because she’s a pro at coding. The funny thing about it is she doesn’t even post her picture, and all these people idolize her and don’t even know what she looks like. I don’t even wanna say what I bet she looks like, today is Crystal is gonna be nice day.
Aw, it must really pain you that I can pull in the hits without having to publish my camgirl-esque photo, eh? Suck it up, you’ll get over it.

You don’t need a picture to prove you’re human. And I don’t need to know what you look like to know that from your blog and Snark that you’re a decent person. ^_^
19 Feb at 8:33 pm
Is it just me that never thinks you’re a bitch, or what?! Because, really, I’ve never thought you to be a bitch at all! Am I the minority here? :P ILU Jem.
19 Feb at 8:35 pm
I reckon the reason you don’t post your picture is because you’re scared you’re not as gorgey as Rose. :P
19 Feb at 8:35 pm
OMG I KNOW WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE!!1!11
19 Feb at 8:44 pm
Don’t lie Amelie. Those times we met, you know I was wearing a potato sack over my face to keep up the mystery.
19 Feb at 8:45 pm
What has having your picture got to do with anything? does everyone judge people by what they look like or something? she sounds jealous to me Jem ;)
19 Feb at 8:47 pm
Damn, she’s gorgeous but her attitude is shit. What a shame.
19 Feb at 8:50 pm
Oh yeah. Damn. And there was me all ready to put up your picture and everything!
19 Feb at 8:51 pm
Haha, that’s kind of funny; I read that comment the other day and thought the girl was probably referring to you =P And I didn’t know you had to know what someone looked like to idolize them. I thought you were supposed to idolize people for important things, like their personality, so who cares about looks?
19 Feb at 9:42 pm
Why do you even go to a site like that? Is this all not a little infantile or have I missed something?
19 Feb at 9:42 pm
I won’t say the exact words that I thought when I saw her photo. Not that she’s ugly, she’s actually quite good looking. It’s just really not gentlemanly to talk about that sort of thing…
19 Feb at 9:58 pm
@Peter: I didn’t. In fact, I didn’t have to. One of those people that “idolize” me passed it on. ;)
19 Feb at 10:03 pm
Am I the only person who thinks having your tits pushed up to your ears is a little unecessary, excessive and slightly unattractive? Maybe I have boob envy (I’m lacking in the department), but I would rather not have someone’s chest shoved in my face.
19 Feb at 10:08 pm
Last time (before I got in Snark) I used to stereotype people. But meh, I knew I was wrong immediately, but then at least I never publicly complained about one before even attempting to know them
19 Feb at 10:09 pm
When you’ve got no personality, you have to use your tits Stephanie. Or so I’m told; I wouldn’t know. Some of us are lucky enough to have both. :p
19 Feb at 10:09 pm
I idolize you. When I grow up I want to be half as leet as you are. I also enjoy flickr’s blog this option.
19 Feb at 10:11 pm
I’d still love you even if you looked like a crackwhore and had hideous boils all over your face. Although, I’m SURE I saw a small picture a few years back. I could have been dreaming, but in this picture, you definitely weren’t ugly.
19 Feb at 10:14 pm
Are we looking at the same photo? O_o
19 Feb at 10:15 pm
i was thinking the same thing :D
19 Feb at 10:17 pm
I never post my pic either…but then I’m secretly a 16 year old girl.. Heh. Not really. As to “tits round the ears”..she’d need to grow them a bit more first, IMO. Bloody toastrack, that is. But then..I’ve been spoiled, I think. Ah well..;) At least Jem doesn’t do the whole makeup thing…such an unneeded waste of time. Never seen the fascination.
19 Feb at 10:25 pm
also i push my boobies up far too but i am very big chested and had 2 kids so they sag something bad so to make them look good i have to, but some one small / med chested should not have to do that they look good with out that and if you want more boobies i be more than willing to give you some of mine Stephanie, my back needs the rest ;P :D her bobbies are not that big at all http://tinyurl.com/3dqtlv a $15 VS bra? uhmmmm… that has to be around what 32a to 38c? correct me if i am wrong ? then i gen i have not wore that size since i was 11years old ………… i know my size there the few bras that do come in it are $56 and more and funny how she has the “dontae’ button right next to the cam and buy that pic? makes you think right?…..
19 Feb at 10:29 pm
I don’t think so judging by everyone else’s comments! Hmm :P
19 Feb at 10:33 pm
That wasn’t a knock at you, Matt ;) /hijacks Jem’s comments
19 Feb at 10:43 pm
Pff, the girl’s silly. A very popular photo of Jem online can be found at http://flickr.com/photos/patricia/2190640/ (she’s the one on the left; I can only assume the cutie on the right is Karl).
19 Feb at 10:46 pm
I can vouch for Jem in saying she is actually human. I’ve seen her many a time – in person. Sounds like missy is all butthurt. Has she ever received a pants award?
19 Feb at 11:02 pm
Isn’t the ninja good enough? :)
20 Feb at 12:48 am
What an ordeal it must be, Jem, to be respected for your brain instead of “respected” for the amount of skin you show off on the Internet.
20 Feb at 1:05 am
I actually admire your no picture “rule” (if it can be called a rule) because it proves that appearances are not necessarily everything. Besides, I’m pretty sure you’re human. If not, and you’re some kind of magical coding creature (something tells me you’d be a cat…), then that’s pretty cool.
20 Feb at 1:45 am
Damn, she has my name. I never understood those sites where owners camwhore themselves off, or camportals in general. There’s facebook for that. Lmao Sarah, nice link.
20 Feb at 2:10 am
Aww poor Crystal, she must really hate you and your awesomeness. Oh she’s just jealous of you because no matter how many photos she posts on her website, she still can’t beat your Google pagerank.
20 Feb at 2:19 am
When you’ve got no personality, you have to use your tits I lol’d. Uh, you’re not a bitch? But you’re not modest about the fact that you’re good at coding. Which is ok, because you’re a coding goddess. I’m envious. And since when does having your picture on your website constitute an online status symbol??
20 Feb at 2:31 am
Sarah, thanks for the link. So THAT’s how Jem looks like, adorable. Bleh. Crystal’s attitude is definitely showing. It doesn’t seem like a nice thing to post any way. Jealousy comes to mind. But there’s really no need to call her ugly and everything. Really. Sure, it is very camwhore-esque…
20 Feb at 3:15 am
I love when people talk shit in comments. The lulz that abound.
20 Feb at 3:19 am
Crystal and Shannon: Jem had better watch out–I hear chinchillas aren’t found in the wild anymore, only in pet stores. :(
20 Feb at 4:01 am
To me it just sounds like Crystal is jealous of the fact that people like Jem without seeing what she looks like. I used to have a pic on my site, but don’t any more. I agree with Jem about the no-photo. It isn’t needed. Most people you talk to online are not going to meet you in person anyway.
20 Feb at 4:18 am
That made me ROFL.
20 Feb at 4:20 am
Yeah she does. From here on out, I shall assume you’re a really smart bot.
20 Feb at 5:13 am
Oh, but I’ve seen a picture of Jem: I think it was a quarter of a jeans-clad leg =D Aside that I think Crystal’s confusing web developer with topmodel, because I sincerely don’t see the correlation between your skills and your looks. It’s a pity the bingo card has to be a square/rectangle, otherwise you could add this to it. But yeah, this is a new one. Your opinions don’t count unless you attach a picture to them. *cue dramatic eye rolling*
20 Feb at 5:16 am
I have to admit that part of your personality I love is that it’s alluring and mysterious. It keeps me coming back here, because in order to get to know who you are, I have to read about you.
20 Feb at 5:26 am
20 Feb at 5:59 am
Psh, she’s just jealous. You’re supposed to visit a personal website because it’s an interesting read. Your face shouldn’t be the only reason people go to your site. Pathetic much? I’ll admit, I’m often curious of what webmasters look like, but it’s usually only when they insult other webmasters for the way they look. Kudos to you for being interesting enough to have returning visitors without posting slutty pictures of yourself all over the place!
20 Feb at 6:31 am
Pssh, last time I checked, everyone knew that ninjas were invisible!
20 Feb at 7:20 am
Actually Jem takes after her mum, she’s downright gorgeous!! All without the need for makeup too hehe. As for Karl, you fibber Karl, you told me you were nearly 21 ;)
20 Feb at 10:43 am
What about the poor bastards who have neither? :o
20 Feb at 11:03 am
Hmm, so suddenly popularity is defined by how one looks? So utterly superficial. Jem rocks, so does her brain. :P And I’m sure she’s gorgeous too!
20 Feb at 1:39 pm
Yes… the day Jem decides to stop blogging – ALL WILL BE REVEALED! It’s like… the Truman Show… OR the Turner Show! Oooer.
20 Feb at 3:28 pm
Jealousy! Jealousy! You know when people make little (often nasty) comments that are meant to be witty, but end up just making them look kind of lame? Yep.
20 Feb at 7:50 pm
Ps, I remember back in the day of custom cursors and scroll bars, Jem had a picture on her website. A small and not very good one, but a picture nonetheless! I will stalk you with the memory of that photo. Beware.
20 Feb at 7:51 pm
Stephanie, do you even remember what I look like? You don’t scare me, you crazy foo’ :p
20 Feb at 11:02 pm
I do. Long dark dair, dark eyes, and this little smirk that we can all imagine without the help of a picture. But you were like 16 or something, haha. So I would probably, logically, have a hard time finding you at this point.
20 Feb at 11:13 pm
I would just like to point out this: http://web.archive.org/web/20021127131749/www.jemjabella.co.uk/aboutme.html If only Jem hadn’t of removed that photo from her server… :)
20 Feb at 11:45 pm
Did she miss the memo? All l33t PHP ninjas are sexy. ;-) It’s just a given. And YIKES are those (_______o_______)Y(______o______) real?
21 Feb at 7:28 am
I\’m assuming someone wants me to comment this entry because I had a childish person post the link in a comment on my site. In that comment do I ever recall mentioning you or your site so I don\’t know why you would just assume it was about you. The only point I was trying to make is honestly I would never idolize someone without knowing what they look like. The reason being is a they could be some fat slob, or an old man pervert named Billy-Bob. Not saying you\’re either of the two, but that is just my honest opinion. Also- I\’m not jealous of you because your site is popular or whatever. I was actually a little bummed that you posted my link, because unlike your site with it\’s 57487473489 hits I would like to keep mine a little bit more low-key . I also don\’t need people ridiculing me, and posting stupid comments. Real life is full of drama and I don\’t need it online too.
21 Feb at 8:52 am
OH MY GOD, I remember THAT version..heh…PSP5, Photoshop 7..Dreamweaver…how time moves on…! Oh good lord…some of the stuff on there is classic…
21 Feb at 5:16 pm
@Karl: I like how she preceded everything with “Wooh!” I love you Jem :D
21 Feb at 6:47 pm
Ah jeez, why can’t the archives just gtfo :S
21 Feb at 7:37 pm
When I was in the sixth grade, I was really into the social studies assignments given by a cool teacher. When I began expressing this intelligent enthusiasm, a few of the others girls started making fun of my hair. 30 years later, it still amazes me how bent on maintaining the status quo, keeping other women “in their place” women can be. Who needs men to abuse us when we’ve got each other!
22 Feb at 10:24 am
It WOULD be nice to see what you look like, but that comment was just… stupid. Awww, she took down her camwhore picture. :(
22 Feb at 9:29 pm
I still dont understand this point. If I admired someone because of what they can do or how they articulate themselves, then what does it matter what they look that? to put this into an extreme context so you can realize how silly this is… are you saying blind people shouldn’t idolize or admire anyone just because they can’t see? of course not, that’s ridiculous.
23 Feb at 1:08 am
As Christine said, I fail to see your point. Jem isn’t giving out advice in fashion and beauty. She’s a blogger, who has more than 100 times proved her skills in coding. That’s what people admire her for. What she looks like is entirely irrelevant to that.
23 Feb at 2:44 am
OMG @ “Jemmie’s Junk Box”. Jem, your “wooh!”s are so cuuuuute. :P It’s kind of cool to look back on the “old days” sometimes isn’t it…hah! XD
23 Feb at 4:31 am
I remember when I first joined the Q*Bee I remember coming to this very site because as you know I suck at all the validating & design. While here I was browsing your site & saw pictures. Not saying of who but I saw pictures of a dark haired woman. :D I still come here because I still can’t code if my life depended on it. And I big ones. Where I can only buy bras online & at Fredericks of Hollywood… but I do not make anyone look at them. It just helps sometimes in the stores to get help and some younger guy is all willing.
31 Jul at 2:17 pm
Wait a minute… I idolize you? I thought I just read your blog…
