An amusing take on the recent 37signals/Curebit controversy.

Only part I got a chuckle about was the book jab

Uh... I'm redirected to some really lame site with Paula Deen riding things. Boo!

Well, they've given so such to the community by Ruby on Rails, so they just deserve to be successful. Even if charging more for their products.

Should have been 73Signals, not 67. Even Sheldon Cooper would approve!

Oh, and a HN account created on the spot, just to post this BS. Well done.

Amusing it is not.

From the very first header:

"Do the same thing other people are doing but charge more because we are hip and edgy..."

Really? "they charge more" as grounds for a parody?

Go and use something else, nobody forces you to use 37 Signals products -- in fact the huge majority of the world, something around 99,9999% does not.

The rest is equally BS. Sour grapes, maybe? What have you done that is successful guys?

And who are you? "Registrant: Domains By Proxy, LLC". Yeah, no balls either.

Could even have been made by the Curebit guys themselves. They sure know how to reuse others people's assets, after all.

(btw, thanks for the downvotes, guy-behind-the-"parody").
