The Least Satisfying Five Minute Fling My Spirit Ever Had On Salon..
He's right. I clicked my Calender ready to laugh, was it April 1'st already? No it wasn't. Salon's editorials are a daily ritual, this is a gourmet supermarket for food for thought, and we are never charged, and this is fair to say: Salon has never insulted us but in this borish, asinine and totally uninteresting front page article, they've dropped the ball on their laurels this week. Can anything in a single article, convince a first time reader a Premium subscription is a sham so effectively?
Consider editor, three things that simply do not exist here: insightfulness, topical relevance, thought provocativeness to conceivably anyone. It's like the least eventful episode of Sex & The City with a dollup of malaise. She's selling a book that apparently the same Java paragraph generator was used to author also.
So basically you are a case of human insipidness that transcends gender and whose attempts at base human intimacy are a mockery; a rare occurrence to be sure, much like sociopathy but not - you'll be informed by others also - remotely worth anyone's time reading or thinking about. Hindsight is an important faculty, it would tell you if you possessed it for instance, explaining at length what psychologically healthy individuals know instinctively as a confounding mystery, and solved by dice throws of tacky would irritate for perfectly valid reasons.
Considering all this, and the financially lucrative careers available for the shallow and colorless, you chose the life of a writer. Except writing is half a creative profession, driven by personal communication skills and sustained by appreciation of hallmarks: constructive insight, whimsical and ironic associations, and the reward of intimately relating to others. Everything in short you pointlessly reveled in here you fundamentally lack, and what lacks in this regard more than any I've ever seen on Salon.
You got your point across.
