The Moonies' Media Empire

We would like to meet the person who got to Jinners and said to her, "You know what the Internet needs? It needs 1,000 more blogs. Why don't you start them all?" We would like to then commit that person to an insane assylum to protect the public good. Worse, Jinners isn't just content to running an alarming four (!) blogs. Besides trying to brainwash the masses into believing The Walkmen are a good band, her goal is also to suck the time out of all the other bloggers out there so that they lose whatever it is that causes them to start a blog. Sure, in many cases, that's an admirable ambition. However, Jinners carries out this sinister plan with a tag board, perhaps the worst invention on the Internet since pop-ups. The tag board on her main site has become one big chat room of other bloggers who should either be writing on their own site or else not writing at all. And with many of them, we're hoping for the latter. We have concluded that the only thing worse than blogs is bloggers writing to each other.

More creepy is that the first thing that loads on Jinners' main site is a picture of her eyes in a "Big Brother is watching you" sort of way. Thanks to the fact that her Web site has an unneccessary amount of pictures on the homepage, it can take a real long time before anything else loads. You are left just looking at Jinners. We strongly insist from experience not to smoke pot or drop acid prior to visiting the page to prevent you from thinking Jinners is staring at you from the other end of the monitor.
