Seducing The Sydney Confidential Ladies

As some of you who read our Big Brother blog would know, ausculture.com launched a campaign to get the term “Graxon” used in the media. Why? We’re still working that out for ourselves. Still, we were shocked to find out campaign was rather a success, with Graxon-mentions being spotted in Melbourne street press (no, Davek, we haven’t forgotten about you - bless) and heard on Victorian radio.

Our biggest goal was getting Sydney Confidential, a gossip and showbiz column in the Daily Telegraph, to start liberally using the term so we emailed them and alerted them to our cause. Gasp, shock, horror - they embraced Graxon, and it’s been spotted at least twice in their column over the last two weeks.

Unfortunately, ausculture.com didn’t get much of a mention - and by “much” I mean “any mention whatsoever”. Hence all our plans for wealth and fame were crushed beyond recognition and we’ve spent the last week or so cowering under our doonas, crying and sobbing over our shattered goals.

But as a wise Japanese mystic once told me, “Stop your fucking sulking Jess, and get back to harassing your way to the top!” Touché, Nayimasaki…

So tonight I emailed Sydney Confidential a few article ideas they could use in order to plug our website in the papers, therefore leading to unimaginable arrogance, bling-bling shopping sprees with P. Diddy and saucy hotel antics with Paris Hilton.

Will our charming, subtle cry for attention be welcomed by The Con? Or will we be cruelly shot down, destined to live out our dull and depressing current existence? Below are screenshots of our burgeoning email relationship with the Sydney Confidential gals, and as we know our readers are as eager for ausculture.com world domination as we are (ie: not all that much but you’re bored enough to indulge the thought) we’ll be sure to keep you informed of any progress. Pray for us.
