THIS IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! I'm a little confused, though. Exactly where is the adult content?

I'm not good with the words like you, but I think you should definately add something about point whores, online lovers that have met here at Joe, and the so called "cliques" that form.

mignuna,

I expect that most people who read it liked it, but are not clever enough to come up with anything that seems like a worthy addition.
I will make the attempt, lame though it might be:

Blooger - (bluh-ger): A blog writer who is unceasingly, obnoxiously snotty.

Wingnut - (wing-nut): someone who is at the far end (doesn't matter which) of the political spectrum.

Dispewt - (di-spute): an argument characterized by logorrhea, especially of a hateful or vindictive nature.

Example: no need, I think everyone knows at least one in their lifes.
