We Hate Area Rugs Club

We hate the blog Area Rugs Club and we hate the post When A Rug You Love Is Backordered.

1. WE HATE that we found your blog while searching for something entirely different. But our wife probably thanks you.

2. WE HATE these sentences:

“So you start looking online and find the perfect rug which you think will lively up that drab floor of yours. But there is a problem! The rug is back ordered for six weeks! Ohh no!!! So what should you do? Frankly, I don’t know what you should do as I’m unaware of your specific circumstance.”

We read Area Rugs Club a few times a day precisely so you can tell us what to do. Don’t give us that “I don’t know what you should do,” crap. You know exactly what we should do. Our rug smells like doob and Doritos. We need a new rug. And you need to sell us one, apparently. You need to sell us one so bad that you have a blog.

We've seen a lot of reactions to Two Girls, One Cup, but this one takes the cake.

3. WE HATE that you even have a blog. We prefer our blogs to be narcissistic explorations of the blogger and possibly his/her family. We like family photos, long ramblings about missionary trips to Massachusetts, the occasional linked image of a celebrity, recipes for tomato soup, maybe some arty photos of an empty baby swing or barbed wire. But business-run blogs and photos of nerdy 20-somethings staring intently at rugs on a laptop? That simply has no place on the internet.

4. WE HATE that your most used tag is Area Rugs and that in second place is Rug. So, so predictable, Area Rugs Club. Wait, where’s the Area Rugs Club tag?

Is that a Netscape icon? What the hell?

You rug people. Always so desperate for attention.

5. WE HATE when our rug bunches up on one end. We have one end under a coffee table and it always bunches up right by the table. We bought it at Sears. Maybe that’s it. But the other one we bought there isn’t under anything and works just great. It creeps a little bit, but we just move it back. No biggy. We suppose this could be seen as an endorsement of Area Rugs Club, the fact that our last point is a complaint about rugs in general and not about Area Rugs Club in specific. But make no mistake, the Area Rugs Club blog can go straight to hell. Don’t buy anything from them.
