Context: When Benton and I decided to start this site , one of our central goals was to remain largely positive . We were huge supporters of many blogs and online media sites , we decided , but had become dismayed at how often those sites strayed into cynicism and hipper - than - thou aloofness . It 's one thing to provide commentary on modern society ; it 's quite another to simply make fun of everything that comes your way . That 's no way to live , really : denouncing everything as not - cool - enough - for - you is a depressing and illogical way to spend your time .
