Also, before any idiot starts spouting off about how “House of Cards” deserves a Webby, it’s a show based on a 1990 UK television series that was based on a book published in 1989, eight years before the Webby Awards even existed.
As for the “stats” that Dick loathes, here’s the article on MassLive.com about how “self checkout lanes not only do not save their customers time but usually take them even more time.” And yet another article about how Albertson’s grocery store chain is also pulling their heads out of their asses.
