Idiot PR people
These people are idiots. They ignore my helpful page outlining what I do and don’t want to hear about, and clutter up my inbox with their crap. Honestly, I get so much rubbish you wouldn’t believe it. So now I’m going to name and shame. Every time a PR person sends me some crappy press release which is nothing to do with the stuff I write about here on Kits and Mortar, I am going to list them here.
If you find yourself listed on this page, you only have yourself to blame. You should feel ashamed, hassling bloggers without any thought for how you are making our lives a misery. You need to go away and rethink your strategy for communicating with bloggers, because I for one do not appreciate the reams of shit you’re sending out. And no, I’m not going to take you off this list, and yes, I know I’m being a bit cross here, but that’s your fault. You are idiots and you deserve to be called out on your bad behaviour.

I have dozens more but the rest get away without being named purely because I can’t be arsed. But anyone now who sends me an irrelevant press release gets listed here, no exceptions.
