Unpleasantries - June 4 I'm a bad journaller. I spent most of my computer time this weekend either playing Snood or reading websites, instead of worrying too much about updating. In my reading, I noticed a lot of people were affected by a denial-of-service overload at LiveJournal. I hate it when things like that happen. Whoever started this one should be ashamed. Something else I noticed is a disturbing upsurge in bad manners. I will probably have more to say about this another time. Today, I was paying more attention to things offline. And just when I had settled in for the evening there came something I wish had not happened. The new show in the CBS lineup, "Creature Comforts," had, in its first few minutes, a homophobic joke. I guess it was supposed to be funny since it was delivered by an animated character instead of the human who said it for real. I was already not amused with the show. That particular bit caused me to change the channel, and using the network's feedback form, I've let them know. Text © copyright 2000-2007 Becky
