If they’re trying to use this enlightening ad to sell 42 Below, I’m thinking that the plan may have backfired. Click to enlarge, in case the details are fuzzy, as, indeed, they would be the next morning.

“An intelligent man is sometimes forced to be drunk to spend time with his fools.” – Ernest Hemingway
A fine quote of the day, particularly after a period of abstemiousness such as we have recently endured around these parts; ah, I have been in this position (barring the gender) far too many times. Let it just be said that I bear it with ill grace, and am given to asking, with the earnest expression of a dedicated seeker after mysteries, “why is it that are you are all so incredibly stupid?”

Ohhhhhh, we know some bloggers who’ll be so jealous! But no, we at the ol’ raincoaster blog got it first!!!

If you think it’s too gross to be shown on tv, just realize that this PSA aired during Hockey Night in Canada; anyone who watches that is totally jaded, violence-wise already.

All I have to say is that I wish I’d written this. Go. Now. Read the whole thing.
Stumble aimlessly amid the trolls and waste, but remember what peace there be in staring at your toes for a couple of weeks. As far as possible without surrender, be on good terms with all readers. Publish your posts quietly and clearly, and listen to podcasts, even the dull and garbled, for they too have a right to hog bandwidth. Avoid loud and aggressive bloggers. They are pains in the ass.
GO.
