the consumerist
i really like the consumerist and sources of similar stories. i don't know why, its not the sense of social justice when a company gets exposed or something gets fixed, i just like hearing about the horrors in the first place. think i mostly like the sordidness of things companies try to get away with. i like the tragedy and the indignity. it might be related to my DEEP LOVE of tales of epic failure. ill get to that some day.

StumbleUpon only exposed me to individual articles from the consumerist and thus formed a skewed understanding of the tone of the site; I totally missed the humor. It definitely wins a place in my RSS reader.
For some reason it reminds me of the LiveJournal vintage ads community. Advertising hilariously illustrates how much culture changes over time.
