Post a comment to this blog. The comment should consist of 2 parts; a compliment and a criticism. It is important to keep this first comment fairly rational. You want to suck people in and make them think you might be capable of intelligent discussion.Eeeugh!!
Stay anonymous! Do not include an e-mail address or (how embarrassing!) the link to your own abandoned blog. If anyone questions this, say you "do not have the time" to set up an e-mail address, or to write your own blog.
The author of the blog will then post a comment back thanking you for the compliment and addressing your criticism. This is great news! You've got someone's attention!
But wait. Aren't you a little upset that this person's blog is more popular than yours was? Yours was clearly superior. Your reply should be very, very critical. Mean, even.
At this point, all but the most inexperienced bloggers will realize what's going on and not address you again.
Don't worry, their friends will come to the rescue, and jump to the bloggers defense.
Get really, really nasty. Launch a personal attack on the blogger, not just the blog itself. Who cares if everyone hates you? You are the center of attention! Bask in it!
Sounds like the Newman of my nightmares. It sort of explains my predicament and reasons for setting up this new page, so it seems quite appropriate that I kick off this blog with this entry. :)

Always happy to be of service.
No, no, I should be thanking you.
No negative criticism to kick off a flame war either. :)
