Hey, Blender! You Suck…
Here’s a rough draft of a letter I’m putting together for Blender magazine, a publication to which I currently subscribe:
Dear Blender,
I just received your latest ‘issue‘ of your monthly magazine and really, WTF? This is the thinnest magazine I’ve ever seen. Seriously. I’ve read tract literature that was thicker than this. I’ve written letters for work that had more actual content than this pamphlet you call a magazine. I’ve gotten emails about travel deals that were more interesting than another article on the Jonas brothers.
But you get the idea.
Look, I know times are tough, especially for magazines. And yeah, you guys canceled Stuff and thinned Maxim, but Blender wasn’t that good from the start. It needs every page it can get. Technically, it doesn’t even have a spine anymore…it’s a fold over and staple magazine now.
Blech.
Signed,
Patrick D.
Now I just need an envelope and a postage stamp.
