Day 2 without HuffPost

Comments

I've no idea what HuffPost is, but I think people of any age need pretty much every single minute they can get for writing slash. That and ogling pretty men and stuff.

It's an online news site. Or, it calls itself a news site. More like a gossip rag whose main purpose since joining up with AOL is to get people to call each other names.

Jeeves would not approve.

Ah.

Your time really would be loads better spent writing manporn, then. If you're short on inspiration, anything with BBC!Lestrade given Rupert Graves' plentiful naked scenes (and lush bum) should inspire you at least somewhat.

You're doing well. Be strong. Breathe in and out. You'll make it to day 2, you'll see....

It's now heading into Day 3. Sometimes I wish I weren't such a news junkie.

I totally agree that slash writing is much more important. Plus you still get the kudos for your witty remarks.

[storyfan]

Plus, my blood pressure will remain at a normal rate.

[lil_1337]

That is always a good thing.

It's gotten to be such a rag now that it's gone all corporate, anyway.

[storyfan]

It is a rag. No matter what Arianna says, this is not a news site. It's not even a news-site aggregator. But this is what you get when you don't pay real, decent journalists a fee to dig up and write news. Most of the people post for free, so what incentive do they have to actually get the facts?

Ick. Just, ick.

Trust me, after watching the best Daily Show and Colbert clips, you'll see HuffPo doesn't really have much more to offer.

I love those guys. They're a lot more fun than Arianna, that's for sure.
