Can I take a blowtorch to him? Or at least a salamander?

Why all the fussh? Hasn't Graydon just hired him to be another busboy at the joint?

@Conbon: You know it. Plus he's decided to name himself (I can't think it's a family name, in the era of Top Chef) after a dessert.

Maybe Graydon will make him revert to the Polo obsessive he was when he lived in glamourous Ottawa?

@ambitious: We'll if he's insufferable at VF I'm sure no one will notice. Seriously though, they could use some new blood.

@Ryan Tate:
"The Mirage F-1 fighter may be out of date, compared to the muscular, assertive F-14 Tomcat or the sleek, minimalist F-22 Raptor, but Dassaut's classic jet still has a certain Gallic-chic timelessness - the Catherine Deneuve of assault aircraft."

My mom loves Brûlé's CDs and loved his Starbucks commercial.

One of his FT columns, I swear to god, was about how he wanted to buy this one military hydrofoil because it was so precious. From some Scandinavian country, of course.

Love him and always will. But he is very, very insufferable. I think that's part of hís chârm.

Oh, Josanna I hate this guy. Sorry Wallpaper fans. I spent enough time in the 90s with being told to buy $1800 weed-pullers by naked models in between six-page articles on the upholstery details of Swissair business class and the "kooky, campy" architecture of Pyongyang.

So, factoring in the circumflex and the acute accents, I believe his last name is pronounced: "insufferable?"
