This most recent one feels like a poorly done Zack Parsons impersonation, which I guess is an understandable thing to go for because Parsons is actually good at what he does.

Yes, getting paid for collecting the work of others and presenting it without any attribution is cool and good.

Hey, it worked for Buzzfeed!

It is especially cool and good after years of Something Awful taking user-submitted photoshop projects and slapping their watermark on it, something goons used to make fun of ebaumsworld for doing.
As far as I recall, those were originally added specifically to counteract eBaumsWorld stealing them. And at least in the Phridays the images are posted with attribution.

I think it's lovely to repost the work of others without credit, is all. Regardless of who's doing it.

If only the ignore function worked on the front page.

Thanks, I really appreciate it. I seriously did not want to write a wall of text. I hate long winded poo poo, but when I looked at it, I felt it was a summation of a lot of what's being said. Him posting a plug for his book shows without referring to it proves Davoren and Aubergine right. It kinda makes me feel validated in the post. Dude got no time for nothing that ain't his personal keyword brand.
Your post is good. Asterios' writing is bad.
