The glossy backlash 1

Yesterday I took a few potshots at the Wired green issue.

Now the glossy backlash continues, with a DailyKos diarist going postal on the Vanity Fair green issue:

Every pathology of the overripe zenith of American hyperconsumerism and narcissism, proudly flaunted in one shiny, garishly overcoloured, borderline-porno, pretty-shiny-toxic package.  What an experience.

Bitchy is the new green!

    Oh lordJerome tends to go off sometimes, but what was especially funny about that post was that he's quoting someone else (I guess it was a comment at the EuroTrib), extolling the virtues of the comment or the person or... eh, it's Jerome, I can't figure him out.
    One of his all-time silliest diaries was fanfiction about another dKos user.  Usually, he's pretty good, though.
    I'm "Plutonium Page" at dKos, by the way :-)  Screwed up my account here, so until it gets straightened out, I'm using this username.
    Like I need another blog to be addicted to...
