Not to beat a dead horse, racing or otherwise (how’s that for a mixed metaphor?), here’s the thing, I think, that’s been getting to me:
If you’re paying or about to pay for something, a person (critic) who has experienced it already can give you useful information, and has a good reason to express negative opinions on it.
We are not paying for this. It is a gift. I guess I’m just surprised by how many people seem to be unable to take it in the spirit that it’s offered. I’m grateful to be able to read GA again. I missed it for many years.
Too much coffee, too little sleep…as today’s chief whiney-baby I now withdraw and will not carp further.
