    So, um, no one is in Japan? You two are just making that up? And John W isn’t in Switzerland? hmmm and

    I FELL FOR IT!

    If the ranking goes up (lower number), it will be because of my handsome mug. If it goes down (higher number), I will blame someone’s shaving mug.

    And here I thought the site was rank because of an unwashed sock

  4. PencilvaniaPencilvania says:

    Hey, those asterisk likes were supposed to be under Sam’s comment! Dime, no fair moving likes around.

    I don’t get it, if our rank was zero initially, wasn’t that better?

    Don’t get all stretched out of shape, Sockrates.

    ?So if I sign in and just leave it on the computer during work, does that improve the stats.

    Gee, guys, do we really want to have an Alexa rank? I prefer flying under the radar.

  8. DevereauxDevereaux says:

    It’s the internet, drl. Everyone knows EVERYTHING on the internet.

  9. John Walker says:

    The Alexa rank (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexa_Internet) is based upon statistics collected by the Alexa toolbar, which is a plug-in users can install in a variety of browsers. Users who do not have this toolbar installed do not contribute to the ranking of a site (unless the site has paid Alexa for “pro” service and installed tracking junk on their home page).

    I have never had this toolbar installed and don’t know a single person who uses it, so I have always been dubious how much one can trust Alexa’s rankings.

    Who should I believe John Walker or a real live sounding Amazon Echo called Alexa? I will do what we all do in a dilemma like this. I will ask Siri.

  11. 10 Cents10 Cents says:

    I brought up the rank for fun. I agree with John.

    The Lint Lizard strikes again!

    Ha! Oxyclean should take care of your spots!

  14. 10 Cents10 Cents says:

    We already had a 20,000 US Rank change in the right direction. What does everyone think the boost was from?

    I have just doubled Dime’s salary.

      No thanks. I want to be paid nothing and tell everyone how big a martyr I am.

    • DevereauxDevereaux says:

      ?So he’s now duodecadime.

      • 10 Cents10 Cents says:

        I am too modest Dev to let you jerks know how more important I am than you. I am top drawer now.

        • DevereauxDevereaux says:

          Bah! No sock is every top drawer. That’s for valuable things like jewelry.

          • AvatarEThompson says:

            Unfortunately, I had $30K worth of jewelry stolen from my top drawer and the detectives told me that is the first place thieves look for valuables and suggested I keep my socks and hosiery there instead. Store your valuables in a bank vault!

            No offense meant to all who own:

            Ankle Length Socks
            Quarter Length Socks
            Crew Length Socks
            Mid-Calf Length Socks
            Calf Length Socks
            Knee Length Socks
            Thigh High Socks

            I wouldn’t know because I rarely wear shoes let alone socks and … arrgh!! no pantyhose. Whenever I’m forced into a cold weather climate, I’ll succumb to tights and Ugg boots. Or a nice suede pump.
