Iowahawk’s already done it, and better than you would have, anyway.
Good thought, though.
Also, a disgusting public display of affection at Wuzzadem’s. Don’t look.

My favorite:
9/06/1998-5/11/1999: Teaching Assistant, Department of English, St. Edwards University. Graded papers for Dr. Gerhart for two undergraduate sections of E206, Post-fetal Gender Fascism: Toward a Post-Colonial Theory of the Easy Bake Oven. Successfully identified over two dozen cases of dangling participles, misplaced apostrophes, and false consciousness.
Classic.
Dan, there’s a typo in the link.
Dang, that’s good.
Shorter: “Get over yourself, Goth-girl.”
TW: boys59. “Not that way. Boys are icky, except the whipped ones.”
argh.
Amanda was not the ‘founder of Pandagon’ – Jesse founded the site, brought a dude in (Ezra) to cowrite … Amanda was the guest-blogger that never left.
It’d be the rightwing equivalent of saying two years from now that Dan Collins founded ‘Protein Wisdom’ because Jeff got a gig writing for ‘Utne Reader Online’
Amanda was the Equal Opportunity hire at Pandagon.

Mandy helped Iowahawk write this, I’m just sure of it.
I wonder what Iowahawk would charge to re-write my resume? Because, frankly, that sounds a lot better than mine, snark included. I can never get the hang of those buzzwords:
Crafted strategic…
spearheaded…
led cross-functional…
coordinated…
achieved follow-through…
I only have real accomplishments, but because people expect this kind of phony-baloney, my real accomplishments seem a bit skimpy.

Er, you’re complaining about a mistake in a (fictional) resume full of exaggeration and hyperbole? Dude, you need a nice nap.
I’m sure he meant “flounder.”
Well, angie, now that I’m fully rested I’ll have another go … it’s become somewhat of a propogated misconception, ‘meme’ if you will, both right and left that Amanda did something other than show up at Pandagon and not leave.
Jim, I agree. Hall of Fame, baby, Hall of Fame.
I don’t know. I liked this better:
That sounds not only like Marcotte, but You Know Who. Has anyone ever seen them together?
Nobody does a regemintated non-conformity quite like the individualistic left. It’s like they have uniforms, or something.
I dunno, there’s something almost ungentlemanly about Iowahawk’s takedown of the poor girl. Even I sort of felt sorry for her by the end of it – after I stopped laughing and wiped the tears from eyes, that is.
Imagine going to the office knowing everyone around has read stuff like that about you. That’s really gotta hurt.
