TC simpletons:

Don’t you get tired of Paul Graham hyping his Yugo VC firm Ycombinator to unsuspecting idiot college kids?

I sure do.

Don’t you also tire from TCs stream of “advertorials” which to most of you nerds, is unfamiliar. But to the rest of us, it is journalism at its cheapest–and most dangerous.

The reason its dangerous? TC’s financial relationship with Ycombinator makes it unlikely to critique anything affiliated with it, and that is not good when the viewers come to TC to get an objective news story on the world of technology.

Graham is keenly aware of this. But he’s a huckster, a PT Barnum with a Iphone, shilling his trinkets for everyone around.

But it’s much ado about nothing. If ever there was a fella who personifies the phrase “All Hat: No Cattle” it’s Paul Graham.

Sad, really.

here is the pitch: give a “company” $100k and you can call yourself an “angel”, with all the petty affectations that come with it. you will not receive this money back. if the “company” has a low burn-rate, you should be able to drop the word “angel” into conversations for at least a year. it might even get you laid (for gold-diggers that can’t figure out that you are in fact not the real deal). once your “company” goes under, you will go back to just being the guy who was lucky enough to ride on someone else’s coattails at google or yahoo

Matter of fact, as I sit here and read through Extreme Enterprise’s plan, it’s quite ingenious. They have an extremely low burn rate due to the fact that they have built an entire infrastructure around trade of stock.

Their office space, furniture, equipment and supplies have been traded for stock, plus they have traded stock for products and services too such as payroll, consulting, hosting, media and promotional items. In addition they are closing on some major media alliances and they already have local advertisers under contract.

I think you should speak a little more educated before opening your mouth and that goes for any person passing judgment on something they know nothing about. It makes you look completely ignorant along side of being a full blown pessimist.
