Annarbor.don't-make-me-vom

Talk about the most boring newspaper (faux paper) of all time. Like, I truly believe that they could hire seven year olds to write more compelling articles than most of the staff of this sleep (or scream)- inducing online news source. It's actually shocking to me that any of these idiots get hired in the first place. What do they have to submit, their sixth grade diaries?
I read the other day about some girl at UMich who started a fashion magazine, but the outfit that they photographed her looking so smug in looked like something that I would have picked out if my great grandmother had fed me too much alcohol at the age of four. It was so unreasonably disastrous (and boring- as always) that I questioned this paper's sanity, until I was deeply alarmed when I found the article written by a woman who was leaving town for six months with her family. That was what the story was about. You might be asking yourself what's interesting about that, and believe me, I am still asking myself that same question. I don't think I know anyone that HASN't left Ann Arbor for a period of time. Tell me AnnArbor.com, what kind of audience were you trying to attract? First graders learning to read?
The moral of the story is, Ann Arbor has a shitty paper that isn't even a paper. It's a shame, because there are so many intelligent people in this town (where are they hiding?!). Though I'm bored of this sad excuse for anything literary, it's confession time: when I'm bored on Sundays, I pull it up and have a look at it, just to wake myself up and have a laugh. Works every time!
But really AnnArbor.com, stop wasting your dwindling money and start paying some good, worthwhile bloggers (ahem...) ;)

P.S. I hope you missed me!! Because I sure missed you. Being poor and unemployed is tiring so I decided that I needed a quick vacay to refuel but I am back and frustrated (and hopeless) as ever. So please, sit back, and watch me suffer.
