King Rat commented on Proof That Paying McDonald's Employees More Leads to Happier Employees.

So this means The Stranger will pay its interns, right?

King Rat commented on Charles Ramsey Not Only Made TV History With the Greatest Interview in Living Memory....

Kai, the homeless skater who saved two women from an axe wielding Jesus freak, was arguably a better interview.

Also, here's a primer on how to apologize. It's not the only way you can, but it's sure better than whatever the fuck that is above: http://whatever.scalzi.com/2013/04/15/ap…

King Rat commented on On the Whole Internet Pointing Fingers at the Wrong Guy.

If you had any honor, you'd resign. Anyone with half a brain could see that was unlikely to be correct. It came from fucking 4chan and goddamn reddit. You know, reddit, the place that went ape-shit when their resident purveyor of creep shots was outed. And you trusted their word enough to pass off a person as being a possible bomber?

King Rat commented on KOMO TV and Radio Acquired by Right-Wing Broadcast Group.

Thankfully the journalists at KOMO will resign in protest at the first sign that editorial decisions are being made because of politics, just like the journalists at the Seattle Times did when politics intruded upon what got published there just before the election.

King Rat commented on The Story of How I Was Detained and Almost Arrested This Afternoon.

"Back in 2004 to 2007, we used to hear more squealing about losing neighborhood "character" to unfamiliar town houses"

Spearheaded by articles in the Stranger and Slog.

Edward Champion is an asshole. I'm not surprised you like his stuff though.

King Rat commented on N. Carolina Student Censured for "Intimidating" Her Rapist.

The University administration claims it isn't behind the Honor Court charge against Gambill:

She says she doesn't believe them. They may be correct though, and it is the ex-boyfriend/alleged rapist who is behind the complaint. In any case, there is a definite over-reach by the student prosecutors here. This is something they shouldn't be touching, as they do not have the experience or supervision to do so.

King Rat commented on I Hate the Airline Industry.

"I can't stand spending money for the privilege of being disrespected."

Yes you can. And will. You will not explode. You will not get cancer from resentment. Bitch if you want, but if you are a writer, don't tell us you "can't".
