Affirmative action for WASP retards in the EmmEssEmm is wrong and I for one confess myself offended by it. Also, fuck her. She’s a douche nozzle.

And this woman gets paid to do exactly what for what reason? Have to agree with JDM3 about the affirmative action for rightards, but have to say she is much more of an enema nozzle.

Holy crap–I thought that was a Shorter. But it wasn’t. It was verbatim. Holy crap.

I mean…holy crap.

Hey, you have to give it to her: at least there’s full disclosure. Other asshats like Tom Friedman just claim “the cabdriver told me so” and blather on as if they had a clue…

Now, tell me again why are we supposed to rely more on a “journalist” like Megan for our info than those pesky bloggers who just pull it out of their ass and can’t be trusted? At least they sometimes show us pictures of their dogs…

You people! We need such hard working “journalists” to absorb those pesky fact things, morph them into shapes compliant with our world view, take out the big words, make ‘em rhyme in a clever if snarky fashion, and then feed them to us.

Well, I’d leave a comment, but I have to buy a gun on my way home tonight.

So I can hunt and defend myself when I go out drinking liberally in Adams Morgan.

God help me, I read the whole stupid thing. It’s hard to top that first line, but she tried.

There is a distressing lack of attention to the female market in gun companies. I want something with accuracy and stopping power, but also, an attractive exterior casing that easily integrates with my other accessories. This doesn’t seem unreasonable.

Because when she feels paranoid and sure that the guy across the street is about to hurt her, she has to look good shooting him, damn it. WTF?

There are a few good writers at Atlantic, Megan isn’t one of them. For the life of me I cannot understand how an editor can look at that post and not fire the author.

My awareness of internet traditions indicates that you must call a shorter, a shorter.

At least they sometimes show us pictures of their dogs…

Actually, those pictures are mass-produced in a sweatshop in China, just down the road from the Starving Artists’ sweatshop. Sorry to burst your bubble.

I’d enjoy the dog pictures even more if they were on black velvet.

A gun that matches my shoes, maybe my purse, too. No, I think I’ll match it to my lipstick instead. OMG.

Hmmm… if they *did* come out with a Barbie-pink pistol to match Megan’s iPod, would it be less attractive to casual burglars? Or would its tumescent color just make it irresistably attractive to those NRA enthusiasts whose priorities we’ve all wondered about?
