Engadget reports on my Netflix post
Wow, this thing just won't die. I make a simple, anecdotal observation about *my* experience with Netflix and now everyone wants to comment on it. The NF fanboys think I'm an asshole for not just taking what NF wants to send me (instead of getting the movies I want). Many of the others just think I'm stupid for thinking that this would work 'cause they have tried it and it didn't. Oh well. It *did* work for me and, honestly, I don't care if it works for anyone else.
So don't blame me. I wasn't the one who put it on Digg or Engadget.

Since everyone wants you to sell out to "The Man", now may be a good time to get some banner advertisements put on your site while traffic is high. I suggest going overboard. Way overboard. I had seen a comment on someones sig in a forum the other day that I suggest the flamers to pay attention to. "Arguing over the internet is like competing in the special olympics. You may win, but you are still retarded"
