Yeah, I don't like that making fun of fat people, fat girls in particular, is like...acceptable bullying in this "be nice to everyone and accept everyone" day and age.
Do you get these on mturk, or are you a transcriber somewhere else? I used to do Crowdsurf for 4-6 hours a day until I found this forum and realized there was better paying work available. But I wouldn't mind picking up one or two now and then.

This is why I love Louis CK. He finally has an outlet to do some great work and get some interesting messages out there, and he does it. Personally, I see nothing wrong with this clip at all. The woman is being honest and direct in a way that NO ONE is now, and Louis actually comes around in the end, and is willing to be open enough to share a funny (if un-PC) joke. And there's nothing wrong with the joke, either. Jokes that poke fun at a demographic aren't automatically evil. Believe it or not, there is a wide variety of degrees of offense...and there's nothing wrong with ANY of them. Someone being offended by a joke should have NO factor in whether or not the joke gets told. That kind of thinking is just backwards and sad for a modern civilization.

Yup I get them on mturk. I usually do one long transcription a day unless I find one that pays really well for the time. I work on it when I don't have anything else to do since the longer ones tend to have very long timers.
I dunno. I'm working on the First Active Website ones. I just made a little mouse macro to open each first and second link

I'm going to keep going on these until 4:30 PST(or more likely they run out) since that's when superfish posted yesterday. If no fish, I'm going to sleep for a few hours.
