Things the Internet Needs to Shut Up About

I love the delicious irony of this whole post.

Yes, it's in 3D, and yes, it's pretty; I appreciate that. But, please, enough is enough. Thank God the Internet wasn't nearly as active when Titanic came out...
Also, to those who point out its flaws, do you really think you're saying something groundbreaking by claiming that Avatar and Pocahontas/Fern Gully/Dances With Wolves are similar? Criticising Avatar for being generic is like criticising leaves for photosynthesising. Go save your self righteous opinion for something relevant, like whether the new episode of Naruto is out yet.

The iPad
This isn't so much the Internet's fault as it is news sites and the general blogosphere. I haven't seen this much hype since Star Wars: The Phantom Menace (and didn't that live up to expectations?...), I'm not looking forward to March, when the actual thing is released. Anyway, there's not much more to say than that this iPhone, which has been made 3 times as big and called something else, is going to make Steve Jobs umpteen billion dollars while he still buggers around in cheap jeans. Meh.

Feel free to add your own!
