Newsarama readers: putting the ass back in class
You know, I'm neither a prude nor an elitist. In fact, I follow a very live-and-let-live philosophy when it comes to life. But sometimes the anonymity of the Internet affords some social rejects a level of exposure that just grates on my nerves. Case in point, this regular Newsarama "reader" (who goes by the classy handle of SMARTASS8) commenting on a story about IDW's new comic based on the Jennifer Love Hewitt TV show Ghost Whisperer:
I like how this guy's user icon and signature file reaffirms every single stereotype about comic book fans being mouth-breathing pubescent boys living in their parents' basement. But I suppose there's a bright side to all this: Jennifer Love Hewitt can rest easy at night, knowing the aforementioned pubescent boy won't "kick her to the curb" should she ever show up at his parents'-basement-comic-book-lair-of-love, looking for some hot comic-book-message-board-commentator action.
