So, I was in a convenience store (SuperAmerica) up in the Cities over the weekend, and I caught snippets of a conversation between the clerk behind the counter and an apparent friend of his.
FRIEND: Me and the girl went to see Fahrenheit 9/11 last night.
CLERK: Yeah? What'd you think?
FRIEND: It was stupid. I was some damned thing about President Bush and the war in Iraq. First time I ever walked out of a movie. I want my money back!
CLERK: Why? What did you expect?
FRIEND: fuck, I don't know. I thought it was some movie about an arsonist or firefighters or something.
CLERK: You're kidding me.
FRIEND: No, I'm not kidding. If I want to know about shit like that, I'll read a fucking newspaper.
Somehow, I got the feeling the friend rarely, if ever, read a fucking newspaper.

It's like trying to imagine Plain Layne with fetish for all things Republican. Probably a right-wing fabrication...
Posted by: The Oracle at July 14, 2004 12:21 AMThe sad thing is that moxie was once quite readable. Interesting stories, nice writing and story telling talent etc.
But then she started incessantly whining about how she couldn't find a nice jewish man ("The common factor in all your failed relationships is you." comes to mind), then the Twin Towers Atrocity happened, and things went quickly downhill. Recently, she seems to have been on a Michael Moore fetish which is a pity because she can, or at least could, do better than that.
Oh, and AFAIK she actually has met with other bloggers...

Poor guy almost had to use his brain, hope he enjoyed going to watch Paris Hilton Bounces Up and Down for An Hour.
