Kind of shitty to scalp tickets for a benefit concert for schoolchildren.

I hate to Jay Leno the joke for @7, @9 above, but the whole point is that the editorial board member in question is at minimum what most people consider 'middle aged', and on the editorial board of the Seattle Times, yet writes like an unambitious high school student.

As for the 'asshole' part, follow the link and click on his other 'pieces'.

I liked this blog post. It was good. It was longer, which I think is better.

Maybe a jellyfish video with sample-and-hold synth drone soundtrack was so devoid of context and begging for 'deep, meaningful, authentic' commentary that Mr. Mudede had a spontaneous orgasm about his own impending editorializing, thus NSFW based on a navel-gazing focus group of one.

Don't worry. The "recipe" consisted only of arranging some hot dog slices and sprinkling some grated cheese on top and calling it "cooking". The family and dog are fine.

They do not taste the same at all, and HFCS makes you gain weight differently, ends up getting snuck into foods that shouldn't be 'sugared' in the first place, and has been linked to heart disease and other health problems. I'd go a step further and suggest it be banned entirely, but that'll never happen soon in this country.

Instead of mincing and pouting about Malcolm Gladwell yet again, you could always just write your own books. You know, since you're a writer and all. Just sayin'. This bitter/harping/preachy tone is tiresome and off-putting.
