Maher's writers
just aren't that funny

The Ads Bite The Big, Red One
Right down to the lowest buck private.
With a million+ subscribers, on top of the (vastly more lucrative) Site Pass revenue, and all the static ad click-throughs, you're telling me that Salon still has to tack on these fucking ads to "official" Video Dog clips???
Please stop insulting our intelligence.
Oh yes, and if anyone is watching Bill Maher for either of his two monologues, they're watching for the wrong reason. It's the guest banter that's always more entertaining.

Stop Whining, Shut Up, and Subscribe, Rob Anderson
You come to Jell-o, I came to Slay-Yo!
Man, what a dork are you.
You complain, complain, complain, yet don't pay a penny to come to salon.com.
Either pay your share or STFU.
Ooh, now I better quake in my boots to your intellectually superior retort!

Cute, Except...
The reason why the hotel has bunkbeds is so that you DON'T have to pay $500 a night. Here in NYC, it's a budget alternative in a city of virtually no bargains these days. The rooms are advertized not just to bring families into the city for a more affordable stay than the usual fare; it's also so that young singles can come into the city and split the fees.
We sorely lack young, creative people in Manhattan these days. All of our recent young residents are boring, perfectly coiffed, perfectly white-toothed trust fund babies. It's a shame non-wealthy young singles can't afford to live in the city anymore. But at least they can come in for a few days if they don't have to pay a king's ransom for a decent place to sleep.

Ads? What ads?
I don't see no stinkin' ads.
Of course, that's because I'm a premium subscriber. Content without ads is one of the benefits.
Rob, if you don't like seeing the ads, there is a VERY easy solution. It's much easier than complaining. And there are other benefits, too.

You stop telling me to subscribe, I'll stop telling your mother to suck my cock
You have no right to tell me to subscribe. I shouldn't have to. I am an active member of the Video Dog community. My posts add value to the site. They generate hits and therefore, revenue. Salon makes enough money off of me without bleeding me for subscription fees.
They should post one of my movies on here. I'm a filmmaker. My movies would make them a lot of money.
Stop with the fake postings under my name! You're all a bunch of childish pricks!

booooring
Who chose this ham handed whatever Maher moment as highlight? Typical of his humor, but seriously, bunk beds? Is there something topical that I'm missing here?

Rob Anderson DOES add value to the site - being the pompous twit he is
Rob, you're self-important and delusional, but I'll agree, you DO add value to the site - entertainment value. Your pompous, ill-informed pronouncements do entertain us all. It's hard to believe that you're serious. Maybe it's just a post-modern farce of someone who's supposed to be a self-absorbed twit. If so, then bravo, dear Rob, you pull it off with grace and aplomb. Kudos to you!
By the way, since you're always so honest, I guess I should be as well: you're not a real filmmaker. Your tripe is derivative and tedious (just like your comments).
I just hope that when you leave grad school - or your mom's basement, whichever comes first - that you can find some sense of enlightenment as to how the real world operates.
In conclusion, stop whining about the salon.com ads - they've got a business to run. If you don't like them, go elsewhere, so the rest of us don't have to read any more of your annoying rants.
And, dude, that comment about my moms really hurt bad. Ouch!

Yeah, Get a Subscription!
And join the legions of us who make no difference whatsoever to Salon's real bottom line. Who cares what Michael Kinsley says? What does HE know?? Stupid founding editor of Slate.....

This is a notch above the high-pitched bunny...
merely because Maher's "jokes" are considerably shorter than that abunnination of a video series you keep playing with sterilized rabbits.
That sure is some deal you got with the Bill Maher Show - they give you a 15 second piece of bland humor and he gets to advertise the worst aspect of his show.
Here is REAL comedy:

Rob is so out of touch with reality...
...he might as well be Dick Cheney. And he's just as polite (though much less witty) than your average freeper.
I gave up arguing with him. It's like debating a barking dog. Surreal, but ultimately a waste of time.

At least it's not a pod like in Japan
