The Insider

Those of you who read this website frequently know that we at Ryan the Angry Midget and Friends have very high journalistic standards and integrity. We don't display either of those traits in what we write here, but pretty much the only people who actually read this website are friends or relatives, and they have known us all long enough to see these traits in us. Buying that? If so, I've got some money in a bank account in Nigeria and I need you to send me your money to get it out.

Earlier today, one of the contributors to this site posted some sensitive material related to his work on the website. It's a long story, but it's related to a different website that's only legal in Arkansas because the acts displayed on said website involve animals, and he was advised to remove said content.

This was a difficult decision for us to make. Removing content is censorship, but aside from the occasional free drink at a local watering hole, we don't make money because of this website, so we all need to keep our jobs. We had a very tense meeting that can be dramatized by the following picture:


Those of you who read the blog as it is updated got some inside information. The rest of you, I apologize for removing the post at the request of the author.

Well, now (*censored*)'s partial, drunken(?) phone message makes much more sense.

What's funny is, the information wasn't really all that 'inside,' but apparently, it was enough for a certain company to complain about it. Just mentioning a certain piece of product was enough to get attention.

Or so I'm told...

EXACTLY. No Discuss Anything.

Some companies actually pay people to surf the internet, just to look for the mere mention of their upcoming product. At least our website got a couple more hits out of the post...

And yes, a bell boy in Mexico stole my PSP. Good times.
