John & Kate deserve the hate for mediawhoring themselves and their kids.

You haven't really thought this one all the way through- have you?

Assume you suddenly have 5 unanticipated mouths to feed? Can you really hate them that much for finding a way to do that?

I'm not saying they're not ****ty people, I don't really pay enough attention to make that judgement- but kids are ****ing expensive and I have a hard time coming down on them for finding a way to offset that cost.

I'm saying there's plenty of hate to go around. Hate for them, hate for the media knobs who shove them in our faces, and hate for the troglodytes who watch that garbage.

In three months, early January, heavy rain in Northern Ca will washout some folks living along the Russian River. If it is a slow news day, camera crews and newspaper reporters will be sent to cover this tragic unforeseen act of God disrupting the lives of folks just like me and you flooded into Bolivia. There people crying at their loss. There's a muddy stuffed animal. If I can set my watch to it, it isn't a tragic unforeseen act of God disrupting the lives of folks just like me and you.

Yeah, I don't understand the idea that there is only a finite pool of hate that one can draw from. I hate new people all the time without sacrificing my hatred for others.

How do you feel about Phil Mickelson again?

Self-hating Dids ITT.

Tony La Russa's hair.

And Tony La Russa.

I enjoy watching the Yankees lose, so I'll be there, watching with hope. Tony La Russa, otoh, I can't even enjoy his disappointments because he's involved in them.

**Dids** · 10-05-2009, 11:12 AM

I'm not going to go to the effort to find it- but I made what I think is a pretty solid post explaining why I dislike Phil in the context of sports, which is totally different than what I'm talking about here.

You don't root for and against people in real life the same way you do in sports.

I see what you're saying. I guess i'm more annoyed by people who use Twitter. It's annoying that something so simple became so popular only because, like you said, people are dumb and they like to talk about themselves.
