Kottke snaps at a clueless commenter

Kottke’s in a mood:

You should charge people more…

I usually don’t respond to crap like this, but I’m in a mood today. Charge? I don’t charge anyone anything to read the site…it’s completely fucking free.

You do know not everyone lives in nyc, correct?

You do know you’re not the hall monitor for kottke.org, correct? You do know you’re not compelled to read the site if you find it uninteresting? You do know that you’re free to delete the bookmark to kottke.org and never come back? Or free to ignore the items you don’t find appealing? Or free to take a walk or read a book or fly a kite or paint a picture or do a million other things aside from reading anything about NYC or food on this site? Seriously.

  1. I feel his pain.

    I still get comments from AOL users that are pissed at me for not hosting downloadable pirate version of the games or movies that I review on my site. I get one just about every other day.

Have your say
