If someone jumped off a blog cliff, would you jump too? I can easily hear this phrase rattling around in my mind whenever some blog meme goes around. Most are silly ("Name three books you've read this month") and some are useless. But a lot of bloggers happily jump off that precipice. I rarely do, and this one really is useless, but I couldn't resist: I'm an A-lister! Ironically, this makes the BABlog a "very high authority group", which is funny, since I constantly tell people to question authority. But actually, this makes me happy since on another site I only rate the C-list. I guess I get a B average then. I graduate college with a B average, so I'll take it.
