I like to think that when Al Gore invented the internet, this is the kind of site he had in mind. Informed debate, sophisticated word play, challenging essays and insightful, original viewpoints - all these concepts have been carefully considered, then rejected in favour of the blend of mindless pap you see before you. I've chosen to take the pith out of this website. So read on, read like the wind, but above all, send me money.
