New Scaratings

The halfwits resemble the people in the Buzztime promotional materials.

I think Buzztime (and perhaps even the site) would rather have 10 of those people play for 1 hour once per month than having me play solo for 10 hours during same month

I don't really care what the promotional material pictures look like. BT will never hook this crowd, ever. I am stealing this from SPOTES, playing trivia will never be cool.

I am actually quite embarrassed about the low-attention span twits that so many businesses covet. You can sit and play trivia next to them, they ask how did you know this or that (something very simple that anyone with a brain should know), I don't know I learned to read at an early age, and you? I know it isn't about trivia, it is about cash, I am in general just disgusted with this current generation that is coming of age. Most/many of this 'special' age group are woefully incompetent with nearly everything they encounter. They don't play because they are afraid to show how stupid they really are, proving the suspicions of the older folks.
Thread jack, over..
Rant over.
