This is so not cool, LJ

[soc_puppet]

Words fail me.


I'm beginning to think I need a running tally of how many months LJ goes without making terrible PR decisions. Just so I can keep track. *goes back to staring hopefully in the direction of ScribblIt a-and virtually ignoring IJ, er*

TEH INTERWEBS IZ SRS BIZNEZ, YO.

But seriously, are these guys fucking morons? How many Strikethroughs do we need until something gets through to the corporate mongrels?

VAR SRS BIZNEZ.

As many as it takes for them to lose a good 50% of their userbase at this point, I'd imagine. I could write a paper on the idea that the internet causes brain damage based solely on the handling of LJ over the last... however long.

Wait, wait. Not true. The LJ users are intelligent enough. The corporate assholes of the real world trying to play a hand in the world of the interwebs, however...

Yeah. You might want to put things into a bit more perspective than what you mentioned before. Obviously, it's the opposite of what you say. Obviously.

I'm not saying that the internet does make everyone stupid, I'm just saying that, if you only use 6A/SUP as an example? You could very easily get that impression. Plz to pardon my unintended foot-in-mouthage.

It's fine~ And like I said, it's the corporate assholes from RL trying to make their dirty money with OUR interwebs. Like hell we'll stand for it when we're obviously far more intelligent than they~

But yes! Do write the essay at some point! It would be complete win and awsum, really.

Still, not a lot else we can do :/ Just yell, and make cool slogans. (I'm thinking of calling this one Basic Fail; what do you think?)

Playeth not devil's advocate! Also, I would totally never even get started, let alone finish, as I am hardly even remotely interested/don't have quite enough sources yet.
