Gah, I hope to God^h^h^hBob^h^h^hDawkins that the escapist isn't going to make a habit of surprise sexing ZP. It's getting perilously close to a tossup about whether or not it's worth watching them. Today's huge trailer for an unspeakably lame series was just.. a bit much (polite version).
On the other hand, it's less gratingly egregious than the whiney, dead-eyed colonials honking nasally about some piss-poor film called "Young People F*cking" (Zombie Siskel gives it no thumbs). Plastered on the end of most of the ZPs, it came at just the wrong time. I was catching up on some ZPs that I'd missed- more fool me. In the end, I just plain gave up, as I didn't want the nails-on-blackboard attempts at advert-driven astroturfing. There was enough negative entertainment value there to fully consume the ZP that they glommed onto, like as unto some kind of focus group headcrab.
In essence, just give it a break please. We're on your site, we're going "oo" and "ah" at the massive EvE online ads. Please don't tear the head off the goose that lays the golden egg and then attempt to shit down its neck. Stop fscking up ZP please. That is all.
(Going to see if there are any Cornettos left in the freezer, deep breaths)
