Julia Allison, I Know This World Is Stalking You

julestoday.jpg
Third-most hated person on the Internet Julia Allison has more pressing issues than her maybe upcoming TV show on Bravo: she has a stalker! Not in the traditional sense of the word, mind you; Allison's stalker doesn't physically follow her around or threaten her or cut off locks of her hair while she's sleeping or otherwise do anything that technically qualifies as "stalker-y."

No, this is surveillance of a different order:

Julia's "stalker" instead mines Julia's own Internet brain droppings each day and reblogs them over at the appropriately titled "Reblogging Julia," hosted by Tumblr. The horror!

This makes Julia, who is in no way used to people reading about the minutiae of her day-to-day happenings online, very upset! "I get criticized a ton on the Internet, but I have never become frightened," Allison tells ABCNEWS.com, which actually devotes three pages to this absolutely inane non-story. "This steps beyond the line of a harmless activity and is obsessive." Allison says she hasn't alerted the police—probably because the mystery blogger (Allison claims to know her identity, but hasn't outed her) isn't really doing anything, you know, illegal—but claims that the blogger once called her a "liar," which led her parents to disown her.

We're pretty sure that's not true, but we're just waiting for Nick Denton to publicly call out his stalker on CNN before investigating the matter further.
