Adventures in Egotism

You know that kid in star_wars_kid.wmv? Someone tracked him down and people are giving him money… $3519 so far.

Why? you ask. “My $2 donation was about what it cost me to see Attack of the Clones. This had better character development, and the special effects were almost as good.”

Dude. You just wasted 5 minutes of my bandwidth. At about 1:20 I was saying to myself, “there had better be a damn punchline at the end of this dumb-ass movie.” but there wasn’t.

Hey, I never said stars_wars_kid.wmv was good. I said it’s cool that people are sending him money, for the reasons described in the article.
