The age of the understatement

Blog in process, looks pretty homemade at the moment. CSS editing skills a bit rusty.

I don't like this blog voice I'm adopting. It seems a bit smarmy, and I'm sure if it was embodied in a person I'd punch it in the face. Or just mutter under my breath about how I'd like to. I don't know how to avoid it, though.

Do all bloggers adopt a voice? Is the fact that the internet has allowed every single one of them to voice an opinion the fact that they sound so smug? Are they naturally smug and as a result "proper" publishing mediums can filter them out?

I'm gonna continue with my theses on how other people should shut up but I have the right to my opinion. Smarmy or not.
