Thank Gawd
[Read the article: Who's Hillary Clinton's supersecret special mystery endorser?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]For a second there I thought she'd been endorsed by John Waters.
-
"You know, it seems a little strange to have a nominee chosen by 48 states."
[Read the article: Night lands Clinton closer to oblivion]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It seems a little strange to end a baseball game after 5 innings, but them's the rules if it rains. Michigan and Florida rained on their own ballgame, and they shouldn't be allowed to go unpunished.

Mmm...Slutbucks
[Read the article: They "might as well call themselves Slutbucks"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Seriously, I'd go there every day if it were called Slutbucks.
-
Spring sucks
[Read the article: A nation of individualists]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]What an overrated season. It's so tentative. Winter sucks too, but at least it's got some balls.
-
the island that was once hugely popular
[Read the article: Livin' La Vida Clinton]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Oh, it still is...
-
Critic schmitic
[Read the article: Gore Vidal's inconvenient truths]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"I suspect that the energy expended in reading 'Gravity's Rainbow' is, for anyone, rather greater than that expended by Pynchon in the actual writing. This is entropy with a vengeance. The writer's text is ablaze with the heat/energy that his readers have lost to him."
Whatever. I love Gravity's Rainbow, and I love the fact that it takes energy to read it. I don't lose the energy though--it's continuously transferred back and forth. There's nothing wrong with requiring some effort on the part of the reader.

2000 is not Nader's fault
[Read the article: Is Ralph Nader losing it?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Arguably, it was the voters' fault. But still, hindsight being what it is, I do not in the least feel guilty about voting for him in 2000. (I didn't in '04, and I won't this time.)
-
Starbucks coffee tastes like dirt
[Read the article: The meaning of Starbucks]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Or asphalt...I can never decide. Dunkin' Donuts coffee, even McDonald's coffee, are far superior in taste. Let's hope DD puts Starbucks out of business for good.
-
B.,
[Read the article: The meaning of Starbucks]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I wouldn't hate them if their coffee didn't taste like the undercarriage of a rusted-out Chevy. (This is not to say I don't drink it anyway sometimes.)
-
Great. Yet another mainstream poet laureate. Yawn.
[Read the article: All hail Kay Ryan]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Collins and Glück as opposite ends of a spectrum? Please. Salon's knowledge of contemporary poetry evidently runs the gamut from A to B.
-
Don't drag
[Read the article: Dissing McCain]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Wilford Brimley into this.

What is this?
[Read the article: Is Barack cheating on Hillary?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Fox News? Because that's what this kind of language sounds like:
Is Barack cheating on Hillary?
Rumor has it, Obama's checking out some other women for the V.P. slot. And some Hillary supporters are pissed.
That's so Murdochian it's not even funny.
-
"probably funnier if you're totally baked"
[Read the article: "Pineapple Express"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Isn't that true of every movie ever made?
-
Paul
[Read the article: Dare to struggle, dare to win!]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]King didn't write this article. Krich did.
-
Can we just pause for a moment
[Read the article: A chick-less ticket?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]and take note of sockpuppet22's hilariously lame-ass attempt to fix his stupid joke?
-
This is great, but
[Read the article: Get your Mac on!]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I would have a very difficult time maintaining an erection the moment the words "John McCain" entered my mind.
-
Timbo,
[Read the article: "Ugh" of the day]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]This Dante guy is the worst of the worst. Using him as an example of a typical man is ludicrous, and using him as an example of Obama voters is just so profoundly stupid.
-
Wow
[Read the article: The Sarah Palin rap]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"I'd club a baby seal if there were oil inside it"
HAHA!!!
-
What the hell

Putin rears good head

Her accent
[Read the article: Your daily Palin: Debate response edition]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]was actually explained in Slate the other day--it's a common accent in her particular region of Alaska, the Wasilla area.
-
Uh, low standards maybe?
[Read the article: Ferrell-Fey '08]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]You thought this was funny? My description would be more like "lame and predictable", like everything else on SNL.
-
Jon Favreau the actor
[Read the article: Winners and losers]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]is always a winner in my book.
-
Didn't need to Google him
[Read the article: Steele, Gingrich clash to take over RNC]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]His name's in the passage you quoted. Duh.
Read your own posts much?
-

U want to no y itz funnee? Az Looie Ahmstrong sed abowt jaz, "If u haf tu ask wat it iz, yool nevr no."
-
wow
[Read the article: I can has cheezburger ... and pathos?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]odintao and others, your absurd righteous indignation is something to behold.
Does anything, ANYTHING at all, make you people laugh? Do you ever smile? Do you ever enjoy life at all? Even one little teensy bit?
Yeah, I know life is full of endless suffering for everybody everywhere...but not really.
Must we all walk around with furrowed brows at all times, living in a constant state of somber, brooding melancholy?
LIGHTEN. UP.
I realize it's slightly hypocritical to write a serious letter urging people to be less serious, but whatever. This sturm-und-drang, high and mighty attitude of Salon letter writers gets really, really old.
-
Wiig
[Read the article: Replacing Poehler]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]is probably the funniest person on the show.
(But that Casey person is completely talentless--you're right about her.)
-
There are low brows and beasts everywhere, on every side of the ideological spectrum.
