"As for me, I understand Mark's piece just fine. I done read the whole thing, two whole times. And as you know, I didn't even go to no college!"
(via alexbalk)
Firmly in The Awl camp through all of this (couldn’t you watch The Awl vs n+1 all day?) but come on, in the spirit of loving a good fight, you have to give Gessen credit for the “news-aggregator site” crack. Sure, it’s cheap and inaccurate but also intentional and as a tone-setter for the rest of his response, it works. I dunno, it made me laugh in an “oh here we go” way and I appreciate that.
I guess it was a dis, except that later in the same sentence and for the rest of the piece he contradicts it. Kind of makes him look like like stupid and not that good at understanding things.
