From Salon.com Writing on the Web, we're used to being flamed with colorful and gratifying names like: "beer-swilling, ignorant, inbred hillbillies" or "some outdated, leftist, probably divorced or never married cliché from San Francisco who fancies herself an intellectual or 'literary' personage because she read the entire 'diversity' book catalog at whatever burnt-out, formerly great -- now leftist-controlled and declining -- university she went to." That kind of thing. But sometimes, when the ire in our mailbox becomes too bitter a pill to take alone, we turn to the Web for a little bit of sunshine at usoFyne. UsoFyne is a self-proclaimed "prop-giving, flattery-delivering service administered free of charge." Basically, give this site your e-mail address, and they send you a note blowing smoke up your ass in the most extravagant way. The nice thing is that the slavishly complimentary e-mail doesn't arrive until a few days later. By then, you've forgotten that you've engaged in this masturbatory pursuit of praise -- until you get a message saying something like: "Katharine the mother fucking GREAT is more like it, you dreamsicle of a female specimen! Trees creak and groan as you pass, just so they can get a little closer to that incredibly hot ass of yours. Scholars find themselves daydreaming of your infinitely powerful mind as they form their treatises on life, love and obscure philosophical texts. We here at usoFyne spill our Bloody Marys on our flip flops cause we get so excited when your name comes up at our round table discussions in the usoFyne solarium!" And so on. It's just nice to know that someone out there on the Web is dedicated to dishing out the love with just as much fervid, florid prose as the droves of e-mail critics. -- Katharine Mieszkowski [5:05 p.m. PDT, May 15, 2001]

From BLACKBOOK
MAGAZINE Therapy With Attitude Despite
the proliferation of viruses and bad Web comedy, your computer can still
make you smile, thanks to the folks at usoFyne.
Conceived by a group of college buds, usoFyne delivers dizzying ego
massages written in delicious high-‘70’s gigolo prose.
Users simply send over the requested specs (intended recipient
name, why recipient needs cheering up), and usoFyne replies with a free,
custom-crafted love letter that holds true to the company tag line,
“Blowing sunshine up your ass since 2000.” The
site (www.usoFyne.com) was launched
– appropriately – on Valentine’s Day, and now the team plans to
bridge the digital divide by taking the act on the road for a fee.
According to leisure scientist and cofounder Tbooms (all associates
use “fonkay” pseudonyms), they will “go in groups of two and three
to a client’s house, make up a batch of Bloody Marys, sit around with
them for an hour or two, and just talk about how fucking awesome they
are.” Hey bartender… |
