‘An Intellectual Grievance Culture’

Jonah Goldberg hits the nail on the head in describing the phenomenon we might as well call Friedersdorfism: When I first came to Washington, I hung around in very similar circles of young eager-beavers. I may not have been as smart as many of them, but I was just as determined to get my articles […]

Enoch Root’s Triple Bid for Rule 5 Link

For the benefit of newbies, Rule 5 of “How to Get a Million Hits on Your Blog” postulates that “Everybody Loves a Pretty Girl,” and Enoch Root of Piece of Work in Progress obviously can get behind that idea. Bloggers who wish their recent posts to be included in our weekly Rule 5 Sunday round-up should […]

Chubby Chick in Sexy Underwear Gets Text Message: ‘Meet Dan for Lunch’

Could this be a reference to notorious chubby-chaser Dan Collins? Never mind. Frankly, we like ladies somewhere in the range between “a little more to love” and “never missed a biscuit.” More to love and all that.

Somebody Really Ought to Make a ‘Downfall’ Parody Video About This

Except of course, you can’t do that anymore: ‘Hitler Reacts to…’ — that patron saint of YouTube memes — seems to be on its way out. The clips, which dub a scene from the 2004 German-language film ‘Downfall,’ are being rapidly pulled by Constantin Films, which is claiming copyright infringement.
