i am the *real* booshy, dammit.
1 / 08 / 2010I’m thinking I need to make a play to become the end all to the mental picture of booshy. Because apparently, branding “booshy” would be a publicists’ nightmare. Good thing I’m not *that* popular because they’d probably have a shit-ton of work to do, since apparently “booshy” is…
A 500 pound man that hangs out at Harrahs.
A British comedy show called the mighty boosh (that I still don’t think I totally understand?).
A girl from London on Twitter with zero followers, 4 friends and protected tweets. The hell? Dear Emma Ling, aka booshy: You’re not fully utilizing either the Twitter or booshy. Thus? You probably should relinquish said Twitter name. To me. Immediately. Love, the real booshy. PS: “booshy” is not sane or normal. Which is probably why everyone is confused.
An atrocity of a definition by”Jersey Vino” that was posted on Urban Dictionary in December 2009 (This date is important)
Which? Eerily similar to my post regarding booshy that I wrote back in MAY 2009. I call plagiarism. Or something. Stealer. Cheater-face. Unoriginal bastard.
Sooo…yah. Maybe I should’ve picked a different name. Then again? I’m pretty sure I was being creative.
Ideas on how to clear my “name?”
You may have been creative, or you may have had your ears tuned to the collective unconscious. Embrace booshy in all its incarnations, become one with it… only then will you find your release.
Maybe?
I think you should totally be allowed to pirate Booshy as your Twitter name, seeing as you are doing much more to promote and spread the word, quite literally.
I’m English…and “The Mighty Boosh” is rubbish! I’d far rather read your blogs, and everyone else’s instead!
I’d never thought about where the word Boosh came from before, but then I couldn’t care less!
Just you keep on blogging, because I just can’t be bothered to Tweet or all this FaceBook stuff!
Blogging will still be here long after that has died out!
Hugs!
laoch’s comment about the 500 pound guy made me laugh all day.
i think all of us would have been like “booshy is here? wow”…and then see the dude who looks nothing like you.
perhaps that WAS the real booshy you and you just use pictures of some random couple you pay some bucks to make all of us believe that you are this young hotness who writes cheesy ilu text messages to hubby
you don’t need to clear your name. live life booshy style and things will fall into place
Will the real Booshy please stand up?
Darn it! Angelia beat me to my comment! Okay fine. However I think the Twitter Booshy is clueless and shouldn’t be using Twitter. Although I’m anti Twitter anyways…
Girl, you know I feel you – I couldn’t get Pretty in Orange on twitter so I had to go for PurtyinOrange.
I just like the way it sounds…booh-shie…booshy…
Be like water and flow past the impersonating booshes…
You are the only booshy I know!
You should totally sell t-shirts.
“The Real Booshy” with your web address.
If nothing else people will wonder why we’re all wearing shirts claiming to be genuine poop.
You know, if I was somewhere and I heard booshy, I’d be scanning for someone that looks like you, lol.
That’s just…well…Booshy!!!
♥Spot
I’m still stuck on the booshy=bullshit thing. I don’t think so.
ok, why is it that i check your blog so often recently? shouldn’t once a day be enuf? and above all this is the fear of you not blogging at all anymore once you start work again…could this be an addiction?
they’re trying to make me go to rehab….
send 500 lb Man-booshy to england to “clear this up” with Emma Ling. if 500 lb Man-booshy is not available, give Jersey Vino a call. he sounds like he knows people who know people, ifyouknowwhatimean.
Do not abandon the quest for the ultimate booshiness!
Well if Miss Emma Ling is so normal and sane why are here tweets protected? I think she might be a tad deranged.
Clearly no one likes her. No followers. At all.
I say we all get together, befriend her on Twitter and threaten her. You know, tell her she better give up booshy. Or else.
I think it might work.
You can make yourself the ‘verified’ Booshy on Twitter and get a nice little green v on your profile. People like Stephen Fry, Jim Carey etc have them, look in my ‘friends’ section.
@Franzi – “they’re trying to make me go to rehab….”
But I said no! no! no!
Couple of really good ideas here!
You don’t got nuttin’ to clear sister. You just keep on keepin on and the Booshy Best will outshine all others. And I mean it.
@Stone Fox: good idea. @Laoch: track down 500 pound booshy. Also: Alice in Wonderland: Find Emma Ling. Meet us at the airport. We’ve got some work to do.
@DJ Kirby: I’m not awesome enough for that, apparently. *sigh*
@BrilliantSulk: if Stone Fox’s plan doesn’t work, we go to plan B: Be-Friend & Harass
@Amy: booshy shirts? Brilliant. We should start on those ASAP.
Yeah, I have no idea how to clear your name. But I’m with Amy on Booshy shirts. Ijustine, ShayCarl and ShaneDawson all have shirts.
When we started Blonde Monde, we thought the name was SOOOOOOO cool and were SO COMPLETELY surprised that it wasn’t taken. Probably because it’s not even correct French. It is, however, correct Frenglish. I tried registering for a formspring.me account with it and it was THE FIRST place where the name was taken. THE HELL?! WHO IS TAKING MY NAME?!
Anyway, can’t you submit or modify urban dictionary definitions? You need to do that.
Your the only “booshy” I care to know. I wont speak or acknowledge anybody else using that name.
I gave you a little gift over at my blog…because you are special.
The Brit husband bought the Mighty Boosh box set a few weeks ago because it was only $20 and oh-so-english (like our House of Elliot and Ms Marple box sets weren’t enough). i fell asleep within 5 minutes. The Brit lasted 10 minutes. your blog is way more entertaining.
I get so pissed when the username “supacoo” is taken. I mean, I hate to be all *memememe* but I AM SUPACOO.
hey, how was your first day back? tell us!!!
A year ago, I decided to tweet and found out some arse already registered ‘fracas’. I took ‘therealfracas’ (see how Amy is so smart at #9?)
While arse is still ‘fracas’ and not even using the damn thing, I have noticed the trend for celebs who’ve had their name squatted are calling themselves ‘thereal___” and so I figure I win.
You should too.
therealbooshy
That’s my vote!
Hmm I guess they must be saying “Booshy” in Summer Heights High, when they’re all “that’s booshy miss.” I always wondered!!!
Fuck. So I have been following the wrong Booshy on Twitter?! LOL. Just kidding.
You ARE The ONE AND ONLY BOOSHY in my book.
