Hollywood writers have gone on strike. Now, if you know me, you know that I'd be the last person on the planet to care about derailed TV shows, but seriously. You people write for a fucking living. You ungrateful bitches.
Yeah, and they usually get the respect of serfs. Stuff in Hollywood isn't known for who wrote it unless it's the director or producer. That's why I wouldn't want to write a screenplay. Not because it doesn't seem cool but because I want credit for my work, thanks. Plus they don't get paid as much as everybody else. More than me, I'm sure, but when you write for a living the money kinda matters. Anyone could write for a living if they chose. They could also starve.
What annoys me is precisely the fact that many of these writers are not starving. And for those who are, a strike is the last thing they could possibly want, since it effectively puts them out of a job while the bigwigs at the top work out a deal. This strike was caused by a pack of bastards who didn't care how many writers' lives they were screwing over in their quest to be greedy bitches.

Not to mention all the small guys who work for the writers who are out of a job. Like my brother. :-P
