Dear Blogger,
When I couldn't blog for two days due to technical problems on your end and suffered the kind of withdrawals that people would normally take Methadone for, I forgave you. I wrote my blogs in Word and sat it out. Despite the fact the problem took longer to resolve than rewatching an entire season of True Blood, I forgave you and continued to herald Blogger as the best free blogging platform in the galaxy. Yes this mostly due to the fact that I was temporarily placated by how hot Alexander Skarsgaard is, but also because I was trying to be patient and understanding.
Now my patience has run out. After writing a blog post on the literature behind Star Wars that took about 4 hours of forcing my brain to think about more than eating cheesecake (or Alexander Skarsgaard shirtless), my "Save Now" feature wouldn't save. Later I would get an error message about posting in a language I didn't even recognise and I, like C3PO am fluent in many forms of communication including Korean, French, English, Arabic, Tagalog, Japanese, Mandarin, and many offensive hand gestures - all of which I aimed directly at the computer screen while your logo - which looks like a sideways deformed ass btw - mocked me unapologetically.
I do not think myself above being mocked, however I do think given that I have been extremely vocal about how great I think Blogger and by extension Google - despite the fact I secretly believe one day your search algorithm will become sentient and take over the world - that this is bullshit.
You owe me all the little tidbits I added to my blog post that I personally believe elevated it from being great to being nearly as awesome as the first time I saw Star Wars. If I were a Wookie I'd get on a plane, rent a car, drive to your offices, and rip your arms off.
When a company or entity has such a dominant presence in anything, nevermind the 24/7 culture of the Internet you have a responsibility to your clients. Yes most of Google's services are free, but please don't add insult to injury by allowing glitches to occur on your free blogging platform and not on your ad revenue moneymaking search engine.
Sincerely,
____ - ______ __________
