So, the blog's been kicking around for about two and a half years now. And I'd say in that time, I've had ten, maybe twenty, posts that were worth a damn. The rest have been self-indulgent musings about things practicaly no one else cares about, lists made for the sake of making lists, product reviews that collectively a half dozen people have read, reports on the whereabouts of every b-list celebrty from the seventies, and political rants that serve no other purpose than to keep me from screaming out my window. How's that for a sales pitch.
Speaking of those political rants, here's one now...pundits make me sick. They boil important issues down to three word catch phrases. They seal their point by screaming the loudest and talking over the other guy. And in the end, they're all just pretty mean-spirited people. (My name's Jellio, and I speak in sweeping generalizations)
Regarding the man-spirited thing, back in September of '05, I asked Mike, a friend of the blog, to help program a game that would seal the point in my eyes, but in hindsite was just stating the obvious in a "we get it already" kind of way. I'm reposting it now because 1) Mike put alot of work into it, and did a great job, and 2) any day I can ridicule Ann Coulter is a good day. So take a look at a mindless little matching game we created called Classic Condemnation (reference to the 70's gameshow, Classic Concentration. Christ, I'm old) and see what took up many hours of my time about two years ago...before I upgraded the level of my posts to flying squirrel videos.
You may have noticed we get political from time to time here at YesBut. We definitely have strong opinions, but at least we usually take the time to hear the other side's argument before we trash it. (Except Monday mornings, don't fucking talk to me on Monday mornings)
This is precisely the reason political pundits piss us off so much. Seems their main reason for existence lately is to stir up controversy and anger, solely for ratings. Honestly, the last thing we need around here is another reason to get angry. (Karl Rove's got that one covered)
So, what's our solution when a serious issue needs to be addressed? Exactly, we do something pointless. And so, I give you...Classic Condemnation, the game. Click on the image above, and have a little fun, in a serious issue kinda way.
