Apr.01.2008 I hate April Fool’s Day Pt 1: Fuck the Consumerist
I’m technically a humor blog, though I could see how one might get that confused since many things I write aren’t “funny”, but today I’m putting on my Combudsman (comedy ombudsman!) hat and critiquing the awful April Fools Day shit I see today.
From The Consumerist:
Dear Reader,
Hi! I’m Chad Steelgate from Haberdasher Communications and I’m really excited to announce that our team has purchased The Consumerist from Gawker Media Network. You may notice a few changes around here, just some minor tweaks I assure you, but for the most part, it’s the same blog you know and love. For starters, one small alteration, the blog will now be called The Conglomerist.
Sincerely,
Chad Steelgate
HO HO! See it’s funny because their blog defends consumers! And they got bought out by a heartless corporation! HA HA. HA HA. Oh man, what a rib tickler. What next? Posting items that aren’t on sale! OUCH, my sides. They are a-split!
