so if i wrote a fake memoir and stole people's money and then went on oprah about it and pretended to be sorry and then reinvented myself with a fuck you attitude, i could intern at gawker? rad.
Dear James, How many applications have you sent in to Paul Janka yet? This could work well, especially if you agreed to be a Gawker double-agent. You did not read this here.
Nope. I need more snark. This is vagrantly snark-challenged. He has more work to do. Maybe make him a commenter first. That's the only way to toughen the nipples. Actually, if there are moobs involved, which certainly seems possible given the bagginess of his t-shirt around the upper-carriage, this should be an excellent experience.
@VTBen: A comedian roasting Drew Carey once said "Cleveland Rocks? Cleveland Sucks! What town would name their football team after the color of shit??"
I didn't read your book because I hate Oprah. I didn't see the famous dressing down because, again, I hate Oprah and who the hell does she think she is anyway? She *makes* people and then gets all upset when they are not who they say they are.
Did she check Dr. Phil's disciplinary record to see that he had inappropriate relations with a staff member before she brought that fat bald piece of bloviating pukedom into our living rooms? No.
Did she know he was a fucking jury consultant and not a practicing therapist before making his big stupid ass rich? No.
I thought I'd forgive her when she went into the Obama tank but it's clear I haven't. Even Barack can't make up for that tool Dr. Phil.
You are small potatoes in a sea of Oprah missteps.
Well played, Mr Frey, well played. I commend you on your astute strategy. Walking into the lions den and then feeding the lions. Brilliant. Now Gawker and its commenters can no longer mock you with impunity for fear of looking assholey. Who can stay mad at someone so humble?
You have proven a true master of guilt-based reconciliation. We all misunderestimated you.
@Mount_Prion: I think everyone's pretty quick to forgive James Frey. He seems like a pretty cool guy. There doesn't exist a period of time long enough to forgive Tucker Max's existence. The man isn't fit to intern for Cat Fancy.

I read your book and liked it, dammit. Yeah, I said it. I didn't believe half of it anyway - what, do I look stupid to you?

In the meantime, I can't stand the thought of Gawker de-Sheila'ed. This is a verifiable fact.
