First you need to sneak a bottle of Wild Turkey into Ritual and top off your mocha with a hearty splash of 101. Launch your RSS client and start drinking. Take a drink when Michael calls something ‘killer’. Take a drink everytime TC reviews sites that offer almost the same features, yet fails to interject any analysis declaring one better than the rest. Take a drink every day Edgeio loses money Take a drink when a website using AJAX is referred to as ‘app’. (this could very well kill you, if you are not gifted in heavy drinking.) Take a big chug whenever you’re sure Mike is XMLing smoke up your ass. You can tell he’s just copy-and-pasting the PR email and adding the word ‘killer’ here and there for good measure. Good, hard pull everytime Mike gets testy with another blogger. TechCrunch starts yet another Crunch ’spinoff’, sorta like a blog version of Jodie Loves Chachi, finish the bottle. Whenever Mike promises to comp your blog writers some free tickets to his party then totally negs on you because ‘the list is getting a bit tight’ hit him with the empty bottle. Revenge is a dish best served cold, Mssr. Arrington. [...] [...] So now we add to this noble list with the Michael Arrington TechCrunch OpenHype Bar game.

Knowing you, I'm sure that you have done the right thing. It's sad to see some of these people who don't know you, taking things at face value and ignoring the facts. To say that you are a prima donna is really laughable! Rach,
