Not fud, just yes
But there is still no denying the similarities. One useful idiot just had a more practiced handler.

Yes, I'm a bitch
But I have to say I can like someone without condoning behavior. That's what editors are for.

I wondered if I was the only one
wondering if a reporter had not dipped into the eggnog before overwriting.
Not fud, just worth remembering
I still recall our Brazilian friend hysterically packing up to move back home during this frenzy. Nothing since 9/11, my ass.
Not fud, just infuriating
And he had the unmitigated gall to tack an MRI onto his "sympathy" tour. Can Jan. 21 come fast enough?
HFS
Bad enough the errors were on what looked to be a blog post. In print? I guess all the layoffs were not just on the letters page.

Christmas makes people
fucking crazy. This is actually a pretty good story, but what a waste -- all that effort for no good cause. And 11 pounds of butter for 500 dozen cookies? Talk about loaves and fishes. . .

Go, internets
For some reason this post -- and the comments it elicited -- gives me absurd hope that the stories behind the promotions will finally be told. Eat your almonds, they said, and next thing you know we have a Torturer in Chief.

Not fud, just good
And the steaming pile in the middle of the definition of sociopath is the guy running around polishing his legacy while trashing the country and getting trashed in torture reports.

Spoiler
for anyone who hasn't seen "Slumdog Millionaire;" otherwise, a trip to Mumbai without the sensory overload.

Not fud, but excellent
Socialist in chief (and it is telling that everyone takes Medicare and it's a fight with Blue Cross).
Once upon a time
saying this would have gotten a writer covered in simian feces. Today it's just accepted as fact.
Not fud, but telling
The one advantage formerly arboreal media apparently has, and the NYT decides to tuck Sports into another section so you can't throw the damn thing out.

My suspicions
about the Archway/Mother's cookie debacle might not be so wacky. Big business is taking advantage of the "everybody's doing it" offense.

I was joking
about his sobriety, but this would be fascinating if the answer weren't obvious: Non-Republicans are always held to different standards. We never got to see who blew his dad, but today everyone's having a good laugh at Monica. Pisco sours all around.

Not fud, but almost revolutionary
Imagine adding a reporter with expertise on another beat to a dull political story. You actually get expertise and context.
Not fud, but thank allah
someone said it, and incredibly well. Everyone's dancing around as if she only got the aftermath wrong. The sumbitch was eating pretzels at the switch.

Drink up.
It's good for someone. Attaturk's motto "in like douchebags, out like colostomy bags" gets truer every day.

Calling Martin Parr
See more Adam "Ghost Panther" McKay videos at Funny or Die
(Filched from the unlikeliest snark trove)
Funny how wrong
resonates more than right. I would never have heard of these if they'd been tasteful.
Is it any easier
if it's food insecurity rather than the H word? (Saw this in the Journal of "lucky duckies," not the NYT.)
Not fud, but excellent
I was wondering how you can "create" a legacy in the last dirty days of the most incompetent reign ever. I was looking for the wrong hero in the piece.

Good take
on a thoroughly recycled story by a guy who has clearly not bought movie popcorn since FDR was on the teevee.
Craven
but it has its moments, including the photo. This kind of comment-seeking, though, is like a Roach Motel.

Recycle the red covers
'cuz they're worthless. Admittedly, I have not been to Hong Kong since it was on the verge of being handed over, but if this is really the one three-star on offer let's all head to Flushing.

Not fud, but good
Almost takes away the bad taste from the interview that nearly ruined Thanksgiving.
