Quotes like “I’m glad there’s OxyContin and video games to keep [rural Americans] docile” are really bad… so it’s quite the achievement for the words outside the quotes to be even worse.

Every other sentence by the author feels like it’s practically bursting at the seams with spite, barely containing the writer’s apoplectic rage. A very off-putting read.



If I could choose between what’s more off putting: the authors way of writing or the subject he’s writing about, I think it’s an easy choice for me.


It's Gawker media, what do you expect?

OxyContin ref was obviously a joke.


It's like you can peer into Marc's thought-bubbles where he's imagining himself in the black turtleneck on-stage.
