Can anyone translate the part of this that's all about me? (The post is reprinted below for convenience; the link is to provide context.)

Who's Being Respectful Again?
Por hoy, me chupan un huevo los cuatro posts que tengo pudriendose al sol, porque Rivka volvio a postear.

Yo se que esta embarazada, y que quedo bastante mal desde que sus compatriotas confirmaron en las urnas que quieren un presidente de ultraderecha que los haga llegar con las minimas paradas (privatizacion, teocracia) al infierno en una cesta. Pero estuvo posteando por un mes despues de la eleccion, y entonces entenderan que sea legitima mi preocupacion: le habria pasado algo mas?

Lo que sea, parece que fue temporario. Tres meses mas tarde, recordo que tiene un weblog e hizo tres posts politicos, que si bien son macanudos, me dejan deseando por mas posts de los solo podria haber escrito ella, de los que mas me alegran el dia (claro que habitualmente no por el tema, sino por el tratamiento).

Yeah, even if I hadn't known that, it was clear from the comment I responded to. That doesn't tell us what it *means*, though.

God, my Spanish is rusty. =/

[chupar un huevo]
I don't remember ever hearing that particular phrase before, the only thing I can find at the moment seems to say that it's an Argentinian idiom that would roughly translate as "to not matter".

Actually, now that the ol' reading comprehension is kicking in, it looks like roughly "The four posts I have waiting don't matter, because Rivka's posting again".

Thanks for filling in the last piece! Now I am blushing and happy.

In Baja California, huevos can be "balls," so "chupa un huevo" is "suck balls."
