Sigh
Reading tripe like this from other people roughly my age makes me groan and think maybe my generation is hopeless after all. It also makes me wonder if I could write some third rate drivel about my sexual exploits and my jaunt through Europe (oh wait, every middle class kid in America has had a significant European experience these days) and get it published. Normally I enjoy almost everything in Salon, even the fluffy pieces or the ones that don't seem to have much of a point, but this one has just pushed me over the edge. Maybe she should try reading some Fitzgerald so she can figure out what a real short story is like.
