For those of you who just want to cut to the chase, the guys at Popsense gave today’s content from the titan of indie reviewing a 6.7. I give the review of their review a 5.6; it gave me a few chuckles, but scored too many easy points for it to enter the “classic takedowns of Internet not-very-sacred cows” pantheon. (I deducted at least .5 for “Also, a using-lots-of-dashes-to-describe-something technique is a lazy way to describe something”–if you’re going to talk about editorial laziness, make sure you don’t use the same noun twice in the sentence covering that topic!)
