THE CYCLES
"Cycles" are extended bouts of blog entries centering around some internet misfit that we (mainly Mark) saw fit to pick on at length. Usually results in death threats against Spinkers.

WarBlogging / Bill Roggio Cycle:
We blog from Iraq so you don't have to.

The Trouble with Trembles Cycle
Background: I offered atheist podcast show Hellbound Alleee free advertising, and ran it for a few weeks until co-host Francois Tremblay - a Libertarian - went apeshit over my polite criticism over the content of one show. The rest is hilarious history.

The Mark Philip Alger Cycle
Background: Mark Philip Alger is a conservative blogger who writes on BabyTrollBlog. The kick here is that Alger not only writes as himself, but also in the voice of his Xena action figure, "Dolly." Done is all seriousness (his is not a satire site!) both Alger and "Dolly" team up against liberal critics of his off-the-hook rants or his weirdo sexual amateur SF stories about how Dolly came to life and how old guys fuck her. Or something. Icky, yes. Funny, yes. Trouble is, soon thereafter one of my own old action figures -- an 8" tall Mego Hulk -- came to life and took over my blog. Karma.

The Michelle Malkin Cycle
Background: Mark Spittle took an interest in Dialectical Malkinism in college, and carried his studies onto this, his website.

The Rocco DiPolepuffer Cycle
Background: Rocco DiPippo of The Autonomist thought he'd be cute and call for his conservative readers to hunt down and post the personal information on New York Times editors, writers and photographers, with the intent to threaten them. Of course this becomes fodder for fun at Spink.
- Rocco Socco Robots:
After DiPolepuffer published his own address and taunted Liberals to come visit him, Mark reveals what's being sold out of said address. Styrofoam never had it so bad. UPDATED: This post was redacted. The rest is history. Or will be.
- Two (No, Three) Questions for DiPolepuffer:
Mark challenges Rocco to denounce domestic terrorism. Of course, he doesn't.
- Paradoxical Parabola of Pity for 'Pippo, Part 1:
Mark pities Rocco? WTF?
- Paradoxical Parabola of Pity for 'Pippo, Part 2 :
Mark still pities Rocco? ROFL.
- Rocco Hires Gays, Illegals, Terrorists?
Diversity in the workplace, Rocco-style.
- Bigfoot and Elvis Invaded Roswell with Jew Blood Money
Rocco's boys use debunked urban legend to make point.
- Rocco Puts A Price On Mark's Head -- Literally. Rocco offers steak dinners and wine to anyone who reveals my personal info. That's all I'm worth?
- Mark Spittle Outs Self, World Shrugs.
I beat Rocco to the punch, and find out it's more like the party drink, not the fisticuffs.
- Rocco Still Believes I Am A Superhero
Dumb as a post, Rocco doesn't buy the outing.
- Rocco, Admitting Malice, Maintains the Bounty
Still not satisfied, Rocco's price on my head is still up.
- Rocco Lawyers Up... To His Daddy!
You can't make this shit up.
- Rocco: Fight Against SPittle is "Search for Justice."
Maybe it's under the couch cushion.

The Mafuckka Moment
Background: For over a year, Crooks & Liars occasionally ran links to Spittle & Ink bits. One fine day, Mike from C&L went nutty over a bit Mark ran about Nancy Pelosi's facelift, and things spiraled into a maelstrom of fun thereafter.
