Randall has professed to work very hard on his comics. This is a sad juxtaposition."<br /><br />Your writings are superior to Randall's in some criteria, but they are definitely inferior in appeal. The proof is, well, trivial. And people get paid by their appeal, not by their universal quality alone, also for trivial reasons: People buy what appeals to them.<br /><br />I recommend you Sponville's Treaty of Deaspair and Beatitude for you to get rid of quality idealism.Eikinklosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06224032606695416367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-7788575148848145362010-09-19T10:14:08.094-07:002010-09-19T10:14:08.094-07:00yeah, other than that, you really should have star...yeah, other than that, you really should have started that blog.

Just weak.<br />After two paragraphs of making fun of "cuddlefish", in a horribly unfunny way, you imply that it is not worth your time to read xkcd.<br />Yeah, because it's not like you're a webcomic reviewer or anything.<br />After that you make it seem as if the first thing that "cuddlefish" would tell you to do is to stop reading lifehacker, when in fact, the first thing they would actually say is to skip that post and read other stuff in lifehacker. Then you give us four links, which lead to two websites between them. Hardly enough to count as "unavoidable," "forcing," and especially not a "disease."<br />If your friends do stuff you don't like, it's your own social problems, not Randall Munroe's, so complain to your friends, not Randall.<br />Seriously, you suck at writing rants.Jobbeybobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13538216576309349688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-61108856676656228032010-08-12T20:20:42.969-07:002010-08-12T20:20:42.969-07:00I think it's meant to convey general ignorance...I think it's meant to convey general ignorance of the internet.
