Angry rants can be hilarious but he's veering into net kook territory with reviews of console based feed readers. I'm anxiously awaiting the next article where he gives us his Ham radio call sign, rips the authors of various Amiga emulators a new asshole, and then reveals his latest project - an album of bird calls he performed on the tenor recorder.

The problem with limiting your repertoire is your response becomes one dimensional and tired. Maybe "Angry Zed" is following the Joel Spolsky "Rule 1" in Painless Functional Specifications Pt4, "Be funny" ~ http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000033.html http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000033.html The only thing is Zed is not funny. Now if you want Angry try emulating "Angry of Mayfield" (Kenny Everett)~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXkxJkjCk-c http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXkxJkjCk-c or how about Mr.Gumby (Monty Python) ~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIlKiRPSNGA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIlKiRPSNGA or if you want a quick essay read the "Argument sketch" (Python again) ~ http://www.davidpbrown.co.uk/jokes/monty-python-arguement.html http://www.davidpbrown.co.uk/jokes/monty-python-arguement.ht... Once you have made your "Angry" point you should move to a different style. Unless of course you want to be a "blub" blogger like Jed.
