Blog buzzword whoring
Wow. Americans really love buzzwords. They eat that shit up like crazy. Only problem is it really bothers people who know whats up and hate when words are plugged in just to sound snazzy and cutting edge.
Take for example this page [autospies.com]. Its an article from what I call the best auto news site on my links page. Nevertheless, these guys have submitted to buzzword whoring just like the rest of them. If you look at that article, you’ll notice they refer you to the “blog” section found further down the page. But you know as well as I do that that is not a blog. That is what has been known for the past umpteenth years as USER COMMENTS or FEEDBACK or whatever. For a short defitinion of blog we turn to dictionary.com.
Is it just me who gets annoyed by stupidity like this? And the propagation of it thereof?
Lastly, I just heard one of the craziest names ever, Jed Bloodworth. Yes, its a real person. Yes, he’s from Texas.
