Valley Fight Clubs?
Ok, this is one geek inner circle I've never been included in! I'm trying to decide what exactly is so disturbing about this. The sheer fighting (this is pretty graphic, so don't watch if you are squeamish), the weird misogynistic element of hitting with purses and Martha Stewart magazines, or the fact that the Valley makes these people feel so "dead" that they need this. Does it flick to a deeper cultural problem in the Valley?

An unforgettable portrait of the emerging world's entrepreneurial dynamos Brilliant, Crazy, Cocky is the story about that top 1% of people who do more to change their worlds through greed and ambition than politicians, NGOs and nonprofits ever can. This new breed of self-starter is taking local turmoil and turning it into opportunities, making millions, creating thousands of jobs and changing the face of modern entrepreneurship at the same time. To tell this story, Lacy spent forty weeks traveling through Asia, South America and Africa hunting down the most impressive up-and-comers the developed world has never heard of....yet.

You have got to be f---king kidding me. Does it point to a deeper cultural problem in the Valley? Without question.
Though perhaps we should just let them kill each other.
