Damnit…
...Thou shalt not use my name in vain. Okay, so that doesn’t work quite right here, but it captures the feel of the moment.
The name is kind of catchy, though, isn’t it?
Do follow the link from Instapundit, though. As always, the Zombietime photo essays are always great.
Update: Okay, since there now is Insta-traffic rolling through, here are a few suggested posts for someone who expected to find something more than a little good natured bitching. Click to read about:

I saw that and thought “cool, Insta linked my boy!”
OK, really I thought, “cool, Insta linked my boy, let’s get that comment thread filled with links to my site!”
But it turns out not.
Yeah, sorry. Not too many links from Instapundit of late.
Anyone trying to ride my coattails should plan on having a slow journey…
I’ll have to market directly. You need long love tube missile to make your lady go crazy! I have pills now at great rates, click here today!
Wow. You got an Instalanche for something you didn’t even do?
Talk about the power of Zombies!
BTW, am I the only one who’s starting to think it’s getting a mite thirsty ‘round these parts?
Zomby (Properly Misspelled) Powrrrr!
Rocky Mountain Blogger Bash thoughts will be posted in just a moment. Tell all your friends.
Last time I got traffic for something I didn’t do, it was because I didn’t have nude pictures of Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen.
Hey, a hit is a hit is a hit.
Meanwhile, if I can go on a one-woman crusade to disabuse everyone of the notion that the conjunction of damn + it = “damnit” I will not have lived my life in vain!!
It’s, “dammit,” dammit! It’s not a mash-up, it’s a whole new word, really. When you put a vowel after a silent letter, it brings that letter back to life, like a zombie.
How interesting. I figured I’d check The Google for the word.
Results 1 - 10 of about 860,000 English pages for dammit [definition].
Results 1 - 10 of about 622,000 English pages for damnit. Did you mean: dammit
I find that quite odd, as damnit is clearly the correct way to compound “damn” + “it”. Why would anybody substitute n/m?
I only rarely get traffic for something I didn’t do. Maybe I’m not doing it wrong.
Probably the funniest recently was the hit from Google images to the River Tam action figure, for the search term “buttplug”.
Re: damnit v/ dammit.
Do you think I’m going to let some watery tart from Florida dictate the spelling of my mild profanities? I think not.
Power to the damnit, damnit!
Spell it as you like. The rest of us will spell it like it sounds: Wojciehowicz.”
Damn.
I’m cleaning ramen from my desk right now and I blame you.
