One of the things that makes reading this blog full of hot air and profanity worth your bookmark (I think) is that I’ve done time on both sides of the fence. After my last post, where I complained about what a reporter owes the reader, it occurred to me that any reader could have written such a screed. So, today’s will be something any CM could write. What does a reporter owe a studio after drinking the free booze and hauling away t-shirts in the free tote bag?

I just updated my Twitter feed with a snarky comment about MMO reviews. Then I realized I had more to say than the Twitter window allows.

Ten years ago, no one would have reported this: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,410781,00.html
It HAPPENED, but it wouldn’t have been on Fox News. Okay, maybe Fox.
And how horrible am I for thinking that instead of dumping her, the guy should have been grateful she was in fact a she?
Hat tip to good ol’ Swanny for sending me the link.

I feel like I’m on a particularly bizarre bandwagon. There’s a lot of drinking and black humor, so it’s a FUN bandwagon, but still.
As you already know if you’ve been reading, oh, any gaming news site in the WORLD, Austin got a little wild-eyed and scary recently. A lot of good people are looking for work right now.
So am I!

Ben Silverman makes me sigh, but this link makes me laugh.
“Fat Princess” kind of amuses me. Yes, it’s another dose of the same old, same old. Yes, it’s sexist and vaguely stupid. No, you’d never see a game where you feed chocolate to a male character and make him slower in combat. But if you DID, it would be funny. And that’s really my point. It’s just funny.
Huh. Guess It’s Like Second Life After All
