Blessed Blogger - always counts her blessings and will only admit to problems if they are in the past tense with a corny Little House on the Prairie life-lesson learned.

Bitter Blogger - rants and vents about how everything in her life pisses her off.  Easily spotted by her posts dedicated to tearing trolls (i.e., anyone who anonymously disagrees with them) a new asshole and angry insistence that she does not need anti-depressants.   (ex.
