    Internal Documents: Naming Our 'Vows' Column

    Because it's a holiday, we're loopy, and a bit bored-anxious. Maybe a little lonely! Definitely cold. Those are the circumstances which lead us to now publishing what we like to think of as The Most Useless Internal Email Thread In The History Of Gawker, In Which We Learn Who Is Efficient And Who Is A Complete Fucktard. (Hint! It breaks along gender lines!) The emails concern the naming of the new 'Vows" rating column, which will debut this afternoon.
