Then, when commenters call him out on the patheticness of this crap, he gets completely butthurt and defensive. Great work all around.

Now, for a post that actually contributes something to society and took the author more than 2 minutes to write. I wouldn't want to be accused of bias. There's still some sort of useful content on BA.

I also got a nice heads-up on some lucrative new Amex offers this morning. Too bad I had to read about them 6 times, but still useful.
I clicked on your link to second post you referenced. I tried reading her when she first came on BA but found nothing of value. I stopped reading as I find it an absolutely awful blog. There is absolutely nothing IMHO of value in a pictorial post, which is what the Austin post was. I can't believe it took more then two minutes to write as it seems to be all pictures. I guest she is going by the old adage that a picture is worth a thousand words.

I'll give anybody a chance but if they want me to come back again they have to give me a reason. BA's bloggers (at least 98% of them) don't. It seems when there were less bloggers (7-10 years ago?) there was more reason to go there.
