Mockarena
Who is Mockarena?
It’s a question for the ages, really. Who is Mockarena – this mysterious, elusive, captivating, beguiling creature and what do you, as a prospective mockdocker, need to know about her?
I can’t really remember when it started, but for some time now, I have had a totally unhealthy curiosity about celebrities such that I used to even subscribe to crapmags like US Weekly and OK Magazine. But my curiosity has never been about admiration or even genuine interest as much as an intense desire to look at their pictures and mock them. And what started out as just a way to mock celebrities has slowly morphed into a blog on which I mock all sorts of things. Celebrities – yes, but also non-celebrity people and political figures and inanimate objects which, for whatever reason, I find mockable. There’s humor in just about everything, really.
Mr. Mock is actually the one who came up with my screen name, Mockarena. The conversation went something like this:
Me: So, now that I have this website name, courtesy of my sister, and it has to do with mocking, I need a good screen name. What’s a good screen name that has to do with mocking?
Mr. Mock: Mockarena.
Me: Ooooo. YAY! That is totally going to be my name.
Seriously. That’s about the extent of planning and forethought on my part that went into my name selection.
Anyway, the only real difference between me and Mockarena is that Mockarena is my meaner and more sarcastic alter-ego. She has keyboard courage, whereby she can write scathing commentary about celebrities and helpless freaks alike, but if I were to encounter any of these people in person and they even LOOKED at me crossways, I’d curl up in fetal position and cry. Other than that, what you read is pretty much what you get. Scroll back through enough of my posts, and you’ll start to get a pretty good feel for who I am. If you’re particularly clever, you’ll find video of me (for those of you who are curious about what I look like.)
Stay awhile. Check out the archives. Tell your friends. Become a mockdocker for life.

P.P.S. If you buy something from my store, and subsequently photograph yourself wearing or holding or otherwise using said product, a tribute post and accompanying haiku will be posted. You know you want one.
