Smart People Playing Dumb

I dig 37 Signals. I read their weblog. I buy their books. I use their sites. They're smart cookies.

Except when they aren't.

If you ask people who think you suck to express how much they think you suck, you should expect the obvious. But, I guess not.

I'm sorry, but the "jump the shark" post was literally asking for non-productive "noise" to be posted. I know that turning comments off have been a while in the making, but this was clearly the straw to the camel's back.

Honestly, I don't care. I don't go there to read comments. In fact, I'm fed up with "community" sites. I should say that I'm fed up with certain aspects of these sites, mainly the asshats who use them to try and make a name for themselves. Think "first post!" and I think you get my drift.

I, for one, will welcome our new comment-less SVN overlords.
