Everyone Is A Critic

I came across a humorous piece written by Paul Simms for the New Yorker, which takes an amusing look at blogging.

In this brave new world of social media, where everyone can leave their thoughts and ruminations as quickly as they are thought of, delayed only by the processing time of signing in, the resulting comments can be quite entertaining in their variety.

In this case the premise is simple; what if the Creator had a blog and invited readers to leave their comments? Enjoy.

  6. @dbs, thought you'd appreciate it. Thanks.

    @Nubian, I understand. Good things need to be shared. It's hilarious, isn't it?

    @Sprite, still laughing at that line too.:)
    And "Amoebas are too small..."

    @VinnyC, given the chance, I think that's exactly what would happen.

    @Barb, yes, thought so too. Imagine the billions of comments and suggestions that would be left.

    @Alistair, as did I.
    Missing a link here.;)

    @Laoch, agreed.
