A Paid Subscription to ‘I Might Be Wrong’ Will Now Get You DOUBLE CONTENT Instead of My Scorn!
An announcement for non-suckers
Since the beginning of I Might Be Wrong, paying for this blog has been the exclusive domain of total suckers. I have, at times, referred to those who choose to pay me out of the goodness of their heart as “generous” and “kind”. But we all know that those words are just euphemisms for “world-class chump”. There’s a name for people who pay for something just because they feel that it has value: Communists. Rest assured that everyone who signed up for a paid subscription to I Might Be Wrong has been reported to the FBI.
But, after more than two years and 343 articles, there will — for the first time — be a reason to pay for I Might Be Wrong other than soft-headed largesse. Starting this week, I will approximately DOUBLE I Might Be Wrong’s output. That’s twice the articles, twice the podcasts, twice the plagiarizing of opinions that I read on other blogs, and twice the re-purposing of jokes that were in my standup act in 2006. But half of that content will be behind a paywall. You’ll be able to access all of the content for $6 a month, which I’ll point out is less than Disney Plus, and I Might Be Wrong will never flog the Star Wars franchise to a slow death in front of your children.
I hope that you subscribe. I do, after all, have liquor and video games to buy, plus a baby to feed if there’s any money left over. I promise to deliver thoughtful, non-ideological content, unless that doesn’t prove lucrative, in which case I’ll churn out pandering drivel and watch the money roll in. If that happens, I will pander to the biases of my paid subscribers first and hardest — that’s one of the benefits of membership. Also, I might start shit-talking random unpaid subscribers in my paywalled posts. The only way you’ll know for sure that the I Might Be Wrong community isn’t giggling about you behind your back is to subscribe.
Thank you to everyone who has read, shared, or supported I Might Be Wrong. I’m happy that from now on, readers who pay $6 a month will receive double content instead of my undying contempt and round-the-clock FBI surveillance. I started this blog with two goals: 1) To provide sharp political comedy unconstrained by partisan allegiance, and 2) To get lick-my-nuts rich. Having failed at the first goal, I hope you’ll help me achieve the second.
Best,
Jeff
Goddammit Jeff. I was paying you so I could say I was better than your other readers. Now I'm just a customer.
I love that I am about to be rewarded for my soft-headed largesse! Makes for a nice change!
