@misslinda: I do go places I want to go and do things I want to do and approach fascinating beautiful women and say wildly retarded things to them and go home and write angry e-mails to Chris Lehmann.
Wrong, Kamer. The correct song to link to was the Old 97's' "Just Like California." ("Just like California/ to make a fool of me/ steal the sideshow, burn the disco/ slide into the sea.") See you in summer school.
Although I've never launched a website on the back of being shitfaced at work along with Ken Layne, I'm proud to say I've been shitfaced at work while someone was launching a website on the back of being shitfaced at work along with Ken Layne.
@MattGaymon:
Assisted Shoeicide: Cheney, Rove, Weinberger, McCarthy, MacArthur, McNamara, Mussolini, Iago, Skeletor, and the Republican Blister Conspiracy. By Scott Horton.
@PrettyNotPretty: I actually tend to use my name to end e-mails, as does pretty much everyone I e-mail. Meaning really, the only people this excludes are the ones named "Sincerely".
@VoxPopuli: Well, as much as I'm generally opposed to strangling anyone regardless of age, gender, or promiscuity, I like the idea of re-envisioning Layne as some sort of Cormac McCarthy antagonist. Meaning Ana Marie Cox is actually buried under some cholla in the Monument.
Um, doesn't Ken Layne live in fucking Barstow or something like that? Isn't his idea of a "social going-on" to stare down a cougar and decide, in the end, not to strangle it?
This is like having Bear Grylls guest blog for Eater.
I suppose the fact that Anderson Cooper continues to not be Donna Brazile's boo means it wasn't a fuckup per se. But still, the whiteness of the silver fox inspired 40,000 t-shirts, and that's worth listiculation if anything is.
This stuff had pretty thoroughly permeated the Santa Barbara punk scene by 2002, neatly explaining away the Ataris and Dim Mak and whatever the fuck it is Parry Gripp does.
