I thought this thread was going to be a confession of horrible secrets and inability to cope with life. I thought I was going to be able to feel better than somebody else appeared. You're an asshole. I hate you.
What do you mean by "the same stuff"? Is B3ta stealing SA's writers, articles and Flash cartoons? Because if they aren't, they don't have the same stuff. Those SA goons are masters of Photoshopping, and I'll bet no one at B3ta ever made anything as funny as Doomhouse. ^_^

They've got a pretty good business model going. The membership fee helps pay for their no-doubt exorbitant bandwidth costs. If I were a regular there, I'd probably pay it. As is, I generally stick to Photoshop Phridays.

I like 10 dollars. That gets me closer to getting a PS3 (a.k.a. 1/50th of the way).

Actually, that looks more constipated than angry. Emoticons have failed me once again!
