The happy hypocrite

I never cared that Caitlin Flanagan calls herself an at-home mother, even though she's a magazine writer with a staff of helpers. But now she's using her battle with cancer to denounce feminism and extol her traditional virtues -- and I've had it.

    Totally gay

    Apparently private schools don't teach the difference between "weather" and "whether," but who cares? Spelling is totally gay anyway.

    Actually, I do have a job that lets me post on Salon frequently --- I run a home- (well, dorm-)based online business. All of the skills involved in this business were learned outside of school, because luckily the horrid education I received only motivated me to learn on my own.

    —Eric Theodore Cartman
