She quotes herself. That's it. (Actually, the self-quotage is the title, and the post itself is merely self-attribution and name-dropping.)
I knew she was a fameball (to use Gawker's delightful neologism), and I'm fine with that. This, however, strikes me as just tacky.

Quoting something you said earlier IRL on your own blog is the equivalent of telling the same story to everyone you know, all the time, forever.
Not a good look, Julia.
