Seems as though Cooper Lawrence should do more research before reporting on the next hit video game. The author criticized Mass Effect for being pornographic and sexually explicit on the Fox News program “The Live Desk with Martha MacCallum,” which was based on her asking someone else what they had heard (good detective work right there). The best part? Gamers lashed out by submitting reviews on Amazon.com to Lawrence’s most recent book “The Cult of Perfection: Making Peace with Your Inner Overachiever,” sending its user-generated rating into oblivion. In one week, 412 of the book’s 472 user reviews were one star. Unfortunately, Amazon.com has removed the extraneous reviews, leaving on the one’s that people actually read.

Read the full NYT article.

Seriously, this was on New York’s Best of Craigslist (although the actual posting is located in Connecticut). Read the Craigslist personal ad here.

And of course, my favorite comment in response to the post:

He almost had me going…
Until I read this: I’ve been known to actually turn down offers of “two chicks at the same time.”
Seriously though, I’d love to see the look on two girls’ faces when this guy says, “Sorry ladies, I’m looking for a vi user, and you two look like you can’t even use Word.”
