The sound of the snarkmeisters

December 8, 2013 by Dave Knadler

We were talking about the insane Twitter flame-fest that erupted during and after NBC’s live version of The Sound of Music. What the hell was up with that? I was shocked and saddened. What do people expect of live television? Something really classy like the f*%$#ing Grammy Awards? Look, the original Sound of Music […]

The real art is feigning sophistication

March 26, 2013 by Dave Knadler

What is art? That was the theme of Sunday’s New York Times crossword, which I finished in (for me) average time. It was titled “You’ll Know It When You See It.” I kept wondering if the creator had been inspired by Tilda Swinton. Swinton, you’ve probably heard, has since Saturday been periodically napping in […]

I thought she […]

Of crosshairs and survey symbols

January 11, 2011 by Dave Knadler

Every time a gunman goes berserk and kills a bunch of people, the shock lasts about 12 minutes before devolving into a shoutfest of assholes and ignoramuses. At least that’s the drill here in America. Maybe it goes down differently in other countries; I don’t know. Probably. For starters, it seems likely that other […]

It isn’t just Muslims who are mad

September 9, 2010 by Dave Knadler

Gather ’round, children. The witching hour approaches. It’s time for Daddy to pour himself a whiskey, throw another Koran on the fire, and relate certain tales that will make your blood run cold. Don’t start crying. I’m kidding about the tales. And the whiskey. And the Koran. Incidentally, is it Koran or Quran? It’s […]
