Dear Google,

You killed Google Reader on July the first, 2013. It is now November 23, 2024, a date unrelated to the shutdown of Reader, or any other date pertinent to it in any way that I know.

In case you were wondering, I am still furious at you about this. More so than when it happened, even. Good chance I just won't ever stop being mad at you for the scale of the damage you wrought and how thoroughly you misjudged that action. The fury deepens as you stray further from good sense.

" Then along came Google Reader and... friends, if you are reading this and are of a certain age range, there is a strong chance you have feelings just seeing the phrase "Google Reader" mentioned."

You got me. Great read, thank you.

Finally even with my brother, who had a couple of games on CU Amiga coverdisks in the 90s 😎🙃

I’m seeking a young, clever woman, cute enough
to prompt a smile, armed with enough pity for
the dregs of the universe…
