new hobby...

so today i found a new hobby. it's a bit of a joke of a hobby, but i get some satisfaction from it.

we are huge netflix fans, despite the issues that we have had we LOVE the service.

i was rating some movies and tv shows so that they would suggest media that would actually be appealing to us and i found myself reading some reviews for some shows to see what the shows really were all about. this is when i found my new hobby:

flagging the ratings that aren't actual ratings but are complaints as "inappropriate" since they aren't reviews/ratings but are complaints. for one show that i found about 50 people had posted reviews saying "you took season two off instant watch. you are stupid. put it back on." or stuff like that. those comments made it really difficult to find actual reviews of the show and i still don't know whether or not to watch them. so netflix, take better care of your site and maybe actually preview comments like you say you do. keep them useful.

I'm impressed you even read those things at all! They're critics; they hate themselves. As such, I usually just go by what my friends tell me and leave it at that.
