Inky Cuddle Party Piece, I Cram 2 Understand U
If you look at the official Cuddle Party website, you can easily tell that Cuddle Parties seem to have enjoyed their peak zeitgeist moments sometime in 2004. So why a big piece in the Inky now? Just one of the questions raised by what is really one of the more deeply concerning Inky pieces we’ve come across in some time. It’s concerning not because in 2008, people are still getting together to cuddle (and very decidedly not have sex) — although that certainly IS cause for concern — it’s concerning because, well, just how does a big city newspaper show up on the scene so randomly and so late? We could sit here and make a lot of jokes about how cuddle parties are weird, but in the end, nothing will change the simple fact that it’s 2008, cuddle parties are happening in Bucks County, and there’s someone who still hasn’t been laid off at the Inky that is writing about them. THAT IS WEIRD AND I WANT IT TO STOP.

I read that cuddle party piece and not only “2002″ but also “what next Inky, a story on cake parties?” Actually, if they want to do something interesting I’d like to read about where the cake girls are NOW.
