Self-Contradiction Comes Free With The Unhappy Meal
Hi, reader. I wrote this in 2005 and it's now more than five years old. So it may be very out of date; the world, and I, have changed a lot since I wrote it! I'm keeping this up for historical archive purposes, but the me of today may 100% disagree with what I said then. I rarely edit posts after publishing them, but if I do, I usually leave a note in italics to mark the edit and the reason. If this post is particularly offensive or breaches someone's privacy, please contact me.
I hear complaints about Salon's redesign and feel the urge to dismiss them as the rants of a cranky, vocal minority. But now that Arrested Development is either cancelled or about two inches from cancelled, I am that cranky minority. It was the best thing ever! How dare Fox actually listen to its viewers and give them what they want? They need to teach its viewers what to want by giving them good stuff, i.e., things I like. Bah to stupid taste! The pernicious bollocks that is mass media's stranglehold over certain awesome cultural artifacts pains me.
