Free advertisement. I've got a friend who has given up reading the Marmot because of Shelton's drivel. I'm still a dedicated reader, but I scroll right past any of Shelton's crap as everyone should.

Any news is good news, right?' But there's a fine line between trying to build brand recognition for one's venture and then disrespecting the owner and audience of the environment he's trying to solicit in. And, at the end of the day, it is solicitation, regardless of the fact that he may feel that he has earned a pass because of his past blog postings here. Good luck with your venture, Shelton. But I don't come here to watch any frontdoor, sidedoor, or backdoor efforts for one to abuse their blogging priviledges to promote their venture. I hope that you learn to develop some dignity and better respect for tactfully marketing what you believe in, but until then I really hope that you can at least show some respect to the Marmot, your fellow bloggers here, and the readers.

Not at all! Is it interesting for the regular waeguk who actually has a social life? Not at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was it worth reading? Well, is it worth me writing a whole article about my vigorous session of masturbation last Wednesday morning? NO! I've DJ'ed at bars before. Did I even bother telling my close friends about it? No! Because it was just a simple experience. Shelton looks at it like he bedded Zhang Ziyi for cryin' out loud!

I absolutely mother friggin' hate Shelton Baumgartner!!!!!! His submissions scream: DO NOT READ ME. I'M NOTHING MORE THAN BORING TRITE ABOUT MY AUTHOR'S LIFE THAT IS NO DIFFERENT, NO MORE WORTH READING, AND NO MORE SPECIAL THAN ANY OTHER FOREIGN INHABITANT OF KOREA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the Marmot. This is a great site that informs us lowly waegukin. Shelton's crap is a blight on it. It's nothing more than crap that belongs on a personal blog that the author's seriously excitement deprived friends and family will read. I've had more exciting experiences on the crapper than Shelton has written entire diatribes about! Robert, please stop allowing Shelton on your blog!
