Hi, Nicole,

I love the Hello Kitty Hell site. I agree with you that it’s better to write than go for the baseball bat. Pre-easy-WP, I had the idea of creating a blog, that invited wives to do a little husband bashing. I was particularly perplexed that day because of some silly thing my husband did, (and always does) like leaving the top off the toothpaste.
I thought it would be better to write about than be angry for something that is never going to change.

The world might be a better place if we had more “anti” blogs, instead of regrettable violence.

Love the wierd Wednesdays, keep up the good work.

This is awesome! What a fun way to approach a niche. I could totally be anti-DragonBallZ, or anti-Bakugan, or anti any of those other shows that make no sense whatsoever.

No. That can’t be true. Hello Kitty wine?! No. Is anyone on the Hello Kitty marketing department checking these things? Are they frickin’ nuts?!

I just gotta say, Hello Kitty Hell guy, you really have the ultimate cathartic blog. I like and understand it.

I think Hello Kitty is pretty cute!

I am not a fan of the super sexification of Halloween costumes…I am starting to see some backlash against those, which is great. Why does every costume for women need to be sexy?

As far as choosing niches, I am also a used book/media seller and I often come across some great books that are hot sellers, so if I am selling a lot of actual books in a certain niche, I certainly think of its online potential. I am actually seeing a trend of popular websites publishing books-I just sold a hardcover book from the Cakewrecks site, for example.

This site is hilarious. I was wondering how he earned any income, but having him add his comments was a great plus. Sounds like choosing the right anti-type site might be the way to go if someone could find a topic they hate, but could still live with blogging for any length of time. From the looks of it, some months he spends very little time on the site and it still gets a lot of visitors. Plus, he has had it going since 2007 – that’s pretty impressive for a topic the webmaster dislikes.

I love that you are sharing these sites with us!

The sad thing is that there is Hello Kitty wine (along with assorted other alcoholic beverages).

Although I never really thought much about it, looking at the sites and blogs I run, the “anti” theme has been a pretty profitable niche for me. I may have to look into starting more with that in mind rather than just happen stance…

Thanks so much for popping in to give us an inside peek into the rantings of the Hello Kitty Hell man, himself.

What you didn’t figure into your income, though, is the money you saved on therapy (and beer) by having such a great outlet! I love it! Heck, I’d be 20 lbs thinner (and a lot richer) if I had a Hello Kitty Hell blog to vent on rather than having my wine every night. 🙂

Appreciate the insight and the great humor, too.

Warmly,
N

Hi Kimberly,

I definitely understand. And, I’d feel the way if it were a site that was trashing a person. But, since Hello Kitty is a toy. I feel ok about it. However, I respect your view, too. 🙂

Warmly,
N
