Be Nice. Be Courteous. But They Did Ask, After All.

Jeff Jarvis’ Buzz Machine has provided us a nice little link for a survey. The Parents Television Council (PTC), those same kind folks who think that you have a little bit too much freedom when it comes to what can and can’t be sent out over the airwaves and want the government to cut the balls off your cable, want to create a PTC seal of approval.

Go. Fill out their survey. Do NOT behave like assholes, because that’s exactly what they would want you to do. But answer the questions truthfully. Rest assured that they will ignore you when you, like I did, list Penn & Teller: Bullshit as being among your favorite shows. But I’ll track how many folks we get to go over there. And let’s just see what happens, shall we?

Again. Behave yourselves. But do that thing.
