Sexist loves Maria incompetently

Following the fairly reasonable success of Game Journalists Are Incompetent Fuckwits, I’ve started two new Tumblrs. One is about game design, and I won’t be linking to that one just yet. The other is about endemic sexism in advertising, and is called If Your Product Were Any Good, You Wouldn’t Need Sexism To Sell It.

My screenplay adaption of Rene Engström’s Anders Loves Maria sort-of died a terrible, horrible death during the Spring, but I’ve reinvested myself in the project with renewed candor. I haven’t touched my adaption of Rob Grant’s Incompetence in a while either but, to be fair, I know that story inside and out and I reckon I’ll just nudge it forward to next year instead. Right now I’m intent on re-reading ALM, taking notes, and basically doing what I did to the Buzz Lightyear action figure I had as a kid – dissembling it, putting it back together, and hoping the wings still pop out.
