This Valleywag website is a laff riot

My God you have to see this side-splitting Valleywag spoof about what it would be like if, like, Sergey Brin was like talking on a solar-powered mobile phone in -- wait for it -- in England! Ha! Because it's not very sunny there! Geddit? So the phone would go out a lot! Ha! And they've got a picture of some guy naked on the first page today too! Naked! A guy! And he's in Alaska. Where it's cold!

Meanwhile, Gawker today has this even funnier article about Matthew Broderick breaking his collarbone in a riding accident. I mean, my God! Wow! Funny stuff, right? If only he'd pulled a full Christopher Reeve and become a quadraplegic, oh my God, then it would be just be the funniest thing ever, right? But here's the thing. Sure, Matthew Broderick breaking his collarbone in a riding accident is hilarious by itself. But it's even more hilarious because his wife looks like a horse! Geddit? She's horsey! And her husband almost died falling off a horse! Wow! Gawker is so hip that they call her SJP instead of Sarah Jessica Parker because everyone who's hip (like me, or should I say moi) knows who Matthew Broderick is married to, so you don't have to say her name, just her initials. Oh my God! What did we do for fun before Gawker was invented? Wow. Classy. Hats off to you, guys.

Better still is the link I followed to http://technology.guardian.co.uk/news/story/0,,1858101,00.html -

"... Mayer is proud of Google and unable to name any mistake. 'Of course there are things that haven't worked,' ...".

Re-defining the English language would be a novel idea, if George Orwell hadn't thought of it first.

And "She says the ability to buy 'the blouse Jennifer Aniston is wearing', while watching her act, is 'the coup de grĂ¢ce of where we might end up with video'."

Only last night, while contemplating how to create world peace and end global poverty I was saying to myself "if only I could just click through from the Emmy's broadcast to buy that dress Helen Mirren is wearing, at least malaria and HIV would be a thing of the past.".

If she's their spokesperson, you should have plenty of material. But then you aren't saying mean things about them anymore, are you?

Just had a brainstorm. Why you don't YOU write something mean about them? Since you seem to care.
