If you think the waiters are rude, you should see the manager.

Why do people read Kotaku? I've never seen a more pathetic excuse for "journalism" anywhere

This might be the first time I've read a story about video games causing violence in asians that had nothing to do with starcraft.

I don't think anyone reads any Gawker Media blog for journalism.

Are you kidding? Deadspin is the premier source of all sports related journalism.

I find kotaku is often amusing and interesting.
True they are far from top-notch professional, but that's part of the charm

The funny thing is Kotaku is probably more professional than most of the other Gawker sites. Deadspin is hilariously juvenile. They have broken a few major sports stories, though. Primarily the site exists to make me laugh about sports.

Definitely. Some of the best content on Deadspin is provided for free by a small collection of brilliant commenters who just spend all day, every day trying to out-joke one another. Deadspin does deserve props for doing some excellent reporting on occasion though.

Put your name on an article sent to you by a PR firm and spend the rest of the day alternating between computer solitaire and masturbation.

You're not a real professional journalist until all three of these activities involve a bottle of Old Grand-Dad.
