Nonsense Social Commentary Articles on Yahoo!

PeterK · Nov 2008

It's a constant unending stream of useless social commentary from Yahoo!...

* How to tell if he'll cheat
* 6 ways to one up your mate
* How to eat a pizza
* <Useless nonsense article telling me how to live and what to live for.>

Why do people feel justified on writing this fluff, is this journalism now ?

Why is this an acceptable sentence in our society ?

"'its great to date a guy with ambition -- and his deep pockets definitely don't hurt when he brings you pricey baubles "

Pliang, please don't reply to my thread.

I can't answer your question since I can't figure out the reason why one day, someone decided that Hubs like Yahoo's and the likes are of any use. I guess it's just ad placement.

So : use this!

That way you'll cut the crap.

Hmmm.... so you are fighting the useless stream of social commentary? Perhaps you should report to a re-education camp at once. Before you go, forward me the "how to eat a pizza" article, I am intrigued.

And by the way, remember, the job of journalists/news people is not just to report. They also have to fill space so advertisements can be shown.

perhaps you should write an article commenting on how to improve your life by ignoring them.

Many people can't get through their lives without reading a book/article/billboard that tells them how. It's not just yahoo. It's everywhere. http://www.wikihow.com/Boil-Water

Also, I love you.

Why are you going to Yahoo.com?
The last time I went to Yahoo for anything was in 1997.

The fact that you read that shit means that you are in fact interested in it somehow. :poly121:

Haha, well people are tools and tools need to be manipulated to work.

If those articles dont make no sense to you then you probably have a mind of your own

If you are using a heat source such as fire try using something like metal, but don't try to put metal into a microwave and don't try to put plastic over a fire.

I can just see someone following the directions and putting the water into a plastic container, sticking it on their stove, turning the stove on, then reading further through the directions and going "Ohh shi-"

Funny, never noticed those before but supposing I did then surely I would have to be wandering around the internet aimlessly looking for something to do, that's never the case as there is always so much to do! Hmm, there is a point though, people love to see nice things like food ads or the mentioning of nice things because it helps the economy and it helps alleviate the pressure and stresses of everyday life, that's only my view of course.

trendy female college graduates need to feel important too, they need to feel like they are contributing to society and are doing something useful. thats who i've always imagined writing these articles.
