...Wow, AMC, I mean, I agree that the tenor and flavor of the outcry was nastily different in a lot of ways from the usual backlash, but still, that was really kinda...

AMC: "Not finished. Stop being assholes about Veena Sud, we mean it. It is not her fault that you are dumb, whiny, entitled crybabies who couldn't be bothered -- because you were too high on your own incipient autism and self-righteous nitpicking -- to just watch the show you were watching and see what happened next. You asked for a story, you got a great story, which for some reason made you act like you'd been waterboarded and sent to bed without dessert. It was frankly embarrassing. We were embarrassed for you. You drink the sand because you don't know the difference anymore. Please enjoy some more cardboard-cutout zeitgeisty bullshit like The Walking Dead, because we are fucking exhausted by you. You and the pants-shitting Twitter tantrum you rode in on."

Damn, girl! Pretty sassy for somebody whose salary we're paying, man. Not that I don't agree with every word. If it weren't for that tantrum I wouldn't have seen this show in the first place. And for that, I thank every entitled crybaby with a blog or a Twitter account. XOXO.

Jacob can be found online at jacobclifton.com, on Twitter, and on Facebook. IRL work appears in BenBella's SmartPop series of anthologies, and novelette "The Commonplace Book" will appear on Tor.com in October 2012, and if he really had balls he woulda talked shit about the silly and overhyped Breaking Bad somewhere in there too. But I think that would be a bridge too far, frankly, so I'm glad he didn't.
