Good thing I'm on vacation so I had time to read this drivel.  Four pages - I read it all and I feel this point was never fully explained.  It wasn't about the music, the web site, the review, the people, or anything other then Celeste and Rhett's boredom needing to incite others.  That's what bitches do, and they like doing it.  How many years has this been going on folks?  And you still let them do this to you?  Silly people.

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Who asked you, asshole?
 
 Did you even read the two offensive reviews?

smackie's point proven.
 
   besides, who takes such offense to a CD review???
    lol.  talk about being petty.
 
  i bet even that ringenburg guy wouldnt have cared as much!

I think we've learned on this board that different people get offended by different things. Sometimes these things may seem trivial to the person saying them, as well as others who are not offended by the comment.
 
    Perhaps offensive was not the right wording. But it is annoying to read stuff and dumb as the shit in these two reviews, even if was written by a mere kid pretending to be a music journalist.

So there's no need to call me names.  I didn't call your wife a bitch, she labeled herself a bitch, and did so proudly I might add.

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

My point was...why jump into a conversation that pretty much ended yesterday?
 
    The conversation was about the poor, vitriolic quality of the writing in the two reviews that would tend to reflect poorly on the website that they were posted on. The conversation was not about Vansmack being judgemental about other people on the board.

I did Rhett.  But I know better the to make blanket statements about Slate, ESPN, Salon or any other web site because I disagree with an article or two contained therein.  And so should someone who writes professionally for a living.  
 
 And I don't go to Country Music web sites to read reviews about the new U2 CD.  And if they do review it, would I be shocked that they hate it?  No.  And even if I were shocked, I would definitely not be shocked enough to write a six paragraph critique and post it on a different web site all together.  
 
 Doesn't Big Yawn have an avenue for your wife's grumbling?  I assume she would have used it first, unless of course her point was to do something completely different then her (somewhat masked) attempt at taking offense to two reviews of CD's she disagreed with.
