This guy really pisses me off

Apparently, plagarism is okay if you feel you've been slighted.

From Washington Post.com
Observer Editor Peter Kaplan said Blair appeared "deeply angry" at the Times. "He seems to have obscured his own moral lapses in what he did, in deference to the racial injuries he feels he suffered."

and people wonder why I decided that journalism maybe wasn't for me. I knew SO many assholes like this even on the ASP that it isn't funny. I mean, you'd like to think that someone would grow out of this kind of behavior. I don't care if he's had a hard life, setbacks, etc. There is NO excuse for what he did. None. And I hope that they continue to burn him in effigy.

Journalism (and any sort of information dissemination) has a responsibility attatched to it. And it's not a difficult one, either. Just be accurate, balanced and truthful. I never found this to be difficult. Granted, you're only as reliable as your sources, but journalism (good journalism, anyway) requires a lot of hard work and a lot of vigorous pavement pounding. I guess this asshole was just too busy with the getting drunk/stoned parts of life to realize that.

Something Positive: The Fans are as warped as the strip!

it's nice to know that no matter how mature, urbane,and otherwise grown up I think I am, a good fart joke will still render me useless and completely unable to stop giggling for nearly fifteen minutes.

*ahem* from the som_pos group, they were talking about playing pranks on the deserving, and one person suggested rearranging the distributor cap cables, saying that the car would 'misfire like a night of bean burritos.'

and I can't stop laughing. I'm well aware of the fact that I'm 8, so no need to remind me. Thanks. ^^
