@Jordan Golson: After school, the frat brothers hooked each other up with sweet cushy gigs at magazines like Business 2.0, while you were left out in the cold, forced to find work on that new inter-web thing.

@BEAVERTON_HUSTLA: Fuck being a member of a frat -- who wants that? I just befriended frat guys.

Thus I did not have to clean up afterwards. Work smarter not harder, that's my motto.

THE FUNNIEST PART IS THAT EMPLOYEES OF BOTH WERE NEVER COOL ENOUGH IN COLLEGE TO GET INTO A FRAT. JUST LIKE VALLEYWAG.

@Alaska Miller: The pay rates are definitely adjusted between the sites, but writers can make a good living on either site.

how much are they paid in comparison to you guys? are they on the traffic payscale too? wouldn't it be unfair considering most of their stories get 100k+ views?
