One less loudmouthed douchebag polluting the airwaves with hate passed off as "humor"?

Good riddance.

Does Imus being a misanthrope make his bigotry and bile any less offensive? What kind of an advertiser wants somebody who hates all of humanity as their spokesperson. Imus is an ass whose time has long passed. Good fucking riddance!

No offense, but America was NEVER the "old America that the world looked up to." That America was a carefully-managed myth that swept all the fractious, contentious issues and inequalities under the rug. If you're "a foreign-born citizen" you probably bought into the myth. Welcome to the reality - same as it ever was.

Hey LW - don't listen to these knuckleheads telling you to "stick it out" or that the military will "straighten you out" because that's all a fat load of horseshit.

The military exists to do one thing: train people to kill in defense of our country. They are not in the business of fixing people's problems or making recruits into better people, and often the problems and baggage you bring with you into the military is only compounded.

Not everyone thrives in uniform and the dangers are very real. Unless you are 100% commited, take Cary's advice and DO NOT GO.

And then save some money and get the hell out of appalachia. I recommend you try Philly - great arts scene and cheap rents.

Good luck and hang in there!

Nobody in New York gives a damn about Broadway either. I work near Times Sqaure and all I see are things like Joey Lawrence in "Chicago" and "Legally Blonde: The Musical" and Disney and Monty Python adaptations outnumbering "serious" productions like "Coram Boy" and "Moon for the Misbegotten" &à-to&. I piss myself laughing at anybody who considers theater a more lofty cultural pursuit than film and television. What a joke. The only people who still care about theater are queers, tourists and the people who work there.

I work hard by Times Square and I fucking HATE those stupid tourists and the pitiful pittance of revenue that they bring in.

Fuck Disney and Fuck Guiliani. I want my old, scary 42nd Street back in all its grindouse glory. What New York needs is another ecomic downturn and some high-profile tourist killings to chase all the subranites, midwesterners and their damn Olive Gardens out of our city and make it affordable for REAL New Yorkers again.

And why does anybody think her tired, wrinkled old ass is still relevant?

This is America. We don't care what old people or intellectuals think - so why is Salon boring us with the ramblings of a senile old pseduo-intellectual cow?

Give me more Lindsay Lohan and less boring old cow!

... that he actually needed to put a parenthetical translation of "double entendre" into his letter so that Cary could understand it.

What a laughable douchebag!

Hey LW: here's my advice for you - go fucking kill yourself already. There are too many people on the planet as it is and we don't need any more fucking douchebags like you taking up valuable resources.

I'll take Cornershop over Pink Floyd any day of the week. I never heard a Pink Floyd song that didn't want to make me stab myself in the ears with a knitting needle. Boring, pretentious, whiteboy self-indulgent noodling. Blech!

Um, we have also have "a variety of Asian shops and restaurants" here in NYC, rvwnsd. I've been to Argyle street and it was cute but hardly anything to write home about. Meanwhile, here in NYC we have three distinct Chinatowns (the big one in Manhattan, Sunset Park in Brooklyn, and Flushing in Queens). I'm not talking about a few discreet streets of restaurants and shops, but sprawling neighborhoods of block after block after block of high rise apartment buildings, rowhouses, warehouses, sweatshops, 99 cent stores, restaurant supply stores, lighting supply stores, mega supermarkets, electronic import stores, etc - catering to every diverse ethnicity from China: Cantonese, Fujianese, even Manchurians and the occasional Taiwanese. Not to mention Koreatown in midtown, Vietnamese enclaves on the fringes of every Chinatown, a huge Japanese wholesale mall (I'm not telling anyone where), and more Thai restaurants than you can shake a sprig of lemongrass at. And yes, the occasional Cambodian or Burmese joint in Brooklyn or the East Village.

Sorry Charlie, but Chicago just doesn't measure up. San Francisco and Vancouver, definitely. But Chicago is still a hick backwater compared to New York. Get used to it.

But we New Yorkers just laugh disdainfully at you silly Midwesterners with your defensiveness and impotent rage - that is, when we bother to think of you hillbillies at all.

You're just jealous because you can't make it here in the capital of the world. Frankly, I've got nothing against Chicago - it's a wonderful foodie town with alot of great culinary strengths that NYC can't hold a candle to (Brats? Hot Dogs? We've got nothing on Chicago. But WTF is wrong with your pizza?).

But nothing makes me laugh harder than some angry New York hater idiotically claiming that Chicago has a greater diversity of Asian food than NY. That's just completely ridiculous and makes people like me laugh at your self-inflicted Midwestern inferiority complex.

Learn to play to your strengths already and stop acting all angry and jealous just because you don't have what it takes to make it here in the center of the universe!

And Bruce Willis is even worse.

Why can't somebody give John Hodgeman a starring role in an action film?

Everything else Hollywood sucks massive donkey dick.

Ugh. I truly hate people like her. She's just an awful human being. Pure trash.

Nobody is going to do a damn thing about it and Cheney is going to get away with everything.

We don't deserve to live in a Democracy anymore, since we're all talk and no action when it comes to shit like this.

Bla bla bla... you're all a bunch of pussies.
