Dear Mr. Moment-of-Zen-Maker:
I must express my displeasure with this terrible, terrible post. After clicking on the link to the "Screaming Penguin" site, I watched the short video of a Teletubby ("Dipsy") dancing to M.C. Hammer's 1991 hit single, "Too Legit To Quit". Frivolous content online is, of course, pervasive and ubiquitous – that you should link such material is by no means a surprise. What is surprising, however, was that the editorial instincts which normally guide your judgment in selecting links of interest was – in this instance – entirely absent. How else could the selection of this link be explained? As you are aware, you have a principal audience of well-educated adults; adults who are, furthermore, inclined to somewhat more sophisticated amusements.
"Too Legit To Quit" qualifies as "retro". "Retro", as we are all aware, is a self-conscious fad which has outlived its own irritating cleverness. It's not funny. It's not even droll. Frankly, it has become somewhat insulting.
Finally, one must assume that you chose to link to a site that had posted the video (rather than simply posting the video yourself) because you're lazy. Is there another reason? I hope there is. I don't mean to be disrespectful, but it's hardly likely that you double-linked this asinine video out of respect for your readership.
Sincerely yours,

Dear MOZ Purveyor:
I realize that you're probably not responsive to requests, but I'd like to make one nonetheless. There's a sizable segment of the population whose interests are often neglected by websites such as yours. I'm talking about folks who would actually pay hard-earned money for one of those rubber forearm-&-fist things that you see in "adult novelty" shops. Of all the people who operate and/or manage websites, you have clearly emerged as most qualified – in temperament, proclivity, and resources – to meet the needs of such a population. Please serve your community.
Sincerely yours,
Mr. Gno Shiite Jack

Dear Mr. ________.
The editors of the MOZ really don't give a rats ass what you thing, what you want, or how you want to be pandered to. Frankly, we're sick and tired of the e-generation (e=entitlement). While you mince about canoodling with your wang up your ass, the rest of us are trying to get some sleep. We (being the entire editorial staff) can't be bothered to care and we don't see why you should. Perhaps if you took up a hobby? I hear needlepoint is better than prozac.
"Too Legit To Quit" qualifies as "retro". "Retro", as we are all aware, is a self-conscious fad which has outlived its own irritating cleverness.
As the person who posted this video on the "Screaming Penguin" website, I must point out that while "retro" might be its own (recurring) fad, juxtaposition in a parody remix is eternal.
