FROM THE (ELECTRONIC) MAILBAG

[WEEKEND update is below. PLEASE read what follows til the end. It's short.]

You publish such sweet and touching letters. I dare you to publish this.

How does it feel to finally grasp that you are a worthless piece of sh-t [redacted]?

You've been bitching on about the good your site accomplishes and how hard you work, blah, blahlala. You've been doing this to people who should actually care. Well, pal, they don't.

I don't want to be mean. Actually I do.

Don't you feel like a total moron?

By your own admission 99% of your readers don't give a flying f-ck [redacted]. They've ignored you. They won't even send you the cost of a cup of coffee or even a subway ride to keep your site alive.

Liberals, buddy, support their cause. Ever heard of "micro-donations"? Contrary to your racist notions, even our poor help out for "the cause".

You are a sucker for throwing your life away for a cause that even those who claim to believe in won't support.

Chew on that and CHOKE!
