Every Saturday, Markos posts some of the infinitely entertaing hate mail Daily Kos receives, and one of today's batch jumped right out at me:
Trust me when I say this, only a few arrogant egotistical bookworms buy the dribble you produce. The problem we face today, sit squarely in the laps of the dems.. But, please keep on showing your bigot reporting and interpertation skills, its great entertainment.
Oh noes, the readers, they'll doom us all!
It truly does astonish me, the fear that the love of reading instills in some people. It's almost as if those folks know their placement of commas, their lack of usage of apostrophes, and their refusal to match tenses are wrong, and so they are forestalling the pointing out of such. "I, sir, am an American," you can almost hear the perfect embodiment of those folks declaring, "and have no need for such homosexual fripperies as proper grammar or the self-reflection that reading encourages."
This one was a close second, though:
I find [a Daily Kos diarist who shall remain nameless] many comments full of vulgar wording such as the frequent use of the four-letter word beginning with a F. There are women reading these comments, and we are ladies, and we find his use of the word so often, offensive.
Is this a spoof from Ladies Against Women? Alas, it appears to be genuine. If being a "lady" means engaging in self-censorship and the limiting one's language, then fuck that goddamn shit. O, who will protect the ladies from indelicate vocabulary? It's hard to believe females like this still exist in the 21st century...
