"Consumerist--the blog for frustrated writers.
"I went to get a Coke out of the machine, and it came out so hot I couldn't hold it" turns into a novel, not to mention something worthy of indignant consumer action?
WTF?
Maybe I'll contribute a scathing literary tome regarding my wet newspaper the other day.
People--remember the story about the boy who cried "Wolf!" next time you think you have something worthy for publication here."
"He bought online using his check card ("Yesterday, I returned home at 8 pm from vacation to find my checking account was in the negative.").
That he was wronged does not cancel out the stupidity of using a check card or Paypal from checking account to buy something online, especially from someone he doesn't know.
No sympathy here."
"I'm not exactly siding with the insurance companies, but I shed no tears for a girl who leads her life like this--makes poor choices--and then expects the world to accommodate her.
It's time for the world to show her some tough love."
