Well, it's true that paid users and advertisers are what allows basic accounts to exist. But basic accounts are what draw people to LJ, and I don't mind paying extra so other people can play in this sandbox. If I didn't like what I was getting, I wouldn't pay!
But I parodied it from the other side because the adolescent quality of the strike struck my funny bone. Rather like the adolescent whinging "You'll miss me when I'm gone!"
I suppose I shouldn't be surprised nobody got it, face to face nobody ever gets that I'm being funny either (when it's sarcasm or irony or parody, at least).
Re: parody? whoa, apologies.
