I think the writers on the most recent shows are too young, too high or too drunk to come up with that connection all by themselves.

Sure. Last night's episode was written by Spike Ferestein, who also wrote "The Soup Nazi", "The Little Kicks", "The Wig Master", "The Andrea Doria", and "The Muffin Tops".

Over the past week I wrote a set of daily stored procedures that do the work of three full-time administrators in less than 5 minutes, plus gave my client a significant lead-time in projecting their demand figures and thus a competitive advantage in the biotechnology market. Not something that some loser named Dave could write while sitting in a sparsely furnished living room in his underwear with 2,000 VHS tapes and a 19" TV and thinking that he could just re-record them every 10 years and still be viewing them when he's living in a publicly funded nursing home 50 or 60 years from now.

And I thought Puddy played Superman. Hmm. Guess I was wrong. (Here's a clue, if the lies aren't so outlandish, they sound more believable.)

Copied this out of InfoWeek, did we?

You sell beef jerky, Slurpies, and Hustler magazines for a living. Admit it.

Obviously, these credentials prove beyond all doubt that you are the leading authority today on sitcom writing in the 90's. We're all looking forward to your sweep of all the comedy writing awards at this year's Emmy's and every year hereafter. After all, no one but you is capable of determining for everyone else what we should and should not find funny. Please forgive us for laughing at the material of other so-called writers that you would deem inferior. We forget that we need your stamp of approval, but the firing of synapses in our brains sometimes induces laughter so rapidly that we are unable to logon to alt.tv.seinfeld to access your reaction without having already been betrayed by our own individual sense of humor. We realize that having different backgrounds, values, beliefs, instincts, life experiences, etc., than you is no excuse for our unauthorized outbursts, especially in a domain as objective as humor. Therefore, we, the comedically challenged, promise never again to question your comedic genius and pledge to adopt all of your opinions as our facts.
