I Hate You, Promotions

One of my pet peeves, something that irks me on all levels, even so much that it forces me to use to the work 'irk': Teases.

They're tricky little bastards to do right, and most of the time writers just fuck 'em up. Given more time, I'd list some more examples. But on Wednesday, just mere hours after the bridge collapse, ABC7 was already teasing their 11:00 coverage:

'Misery on the Mississippi'

I hate you, promotions. Pure disgrace.

(More on teases later...)
