why the times is lame: underwhelming media coverage and sobriety?

Boo NYT. bah. we are so tired of the times' lame twitter obsessive fawning.

ahhh another one of these out of touch nyt articles we hate. !!! the nyt reporting on media in an inane outdated way. like when your dad asks you about music and is like hey, have you heard of death cab for cutie. or even more appropriately the way your parents send you emails with golf jokes, or political humor. its like that, somehow.
Andy Lauer:
ya, it's better than their articles about how rich people are suffering due to the economic downturn
10:04 AM Charlotte Young:
they do both those things incredibly poorly
Andy Lauer:
Re: article. "a woman at South by Southwest uses her cellphone in the old-fashioned way, for talking, a rarity here."
HMMmmmmMMM
Charlotte Young:
!!CELL PHONES? FOR TALKING!!
and theyre like we can roll twitter into SXSW- ALL THINGS HIP AND TRENDY!!!! (still bitter everyone left me and went to austin)
um also the woman in that picture is fucking ugly. like could they have chosen a more unappealing picture to represent antiquated technology. things the nyt does not understand: facebook, twitter, the middle class. However i only read the style/arts sections perhaps there's alot they're doing well, in other sections.
Andy Lauer:
you mean "do well" like this? whoopie pies. hard hitting.
Charlotte Young:
Those are beautiful cookies. or covering fashion week. i was down with that. pictures, slide shows, i also like those audio slideshows? you know the one about winter coats.
Andy Lauer:
ohhh yaa
Andy Lauer:
do you ever read the "proof" blog, about drinking. it's fucking terrible.
Charlotte Young:
about all the movements in bars?
Andy Lauer:
'cause it's all about people who have STOPPED drinking. like recovering alcoholics. talking about how happy they're sober now. sometimes they talk about cool shit.
Charlotte Young:
oh. recovering alcoholics. theyre depressing.
10:11 AM Andy Lauer:
but it's like....why is your blog about alcohol all about beings sober
10:12 AM Charlotte Young:
no one wants to read about sobriety
except other recovering alcoholics



poop on a bitch
