Remember the Shakespeare line, “My kingdom for a horse”? Well, to paraphrase, I’d give my right arm for a capable opponent. The individuals who attack me for my letters tend to scrape the bottom of the barrel integrity-wise. Their intellectual dishonesty is stunning.
Dear Jim-not-Joe Pietrangelo… I sincerely want to thank you, and I believe I speak for the lion’s share of readers here, for the laughs you generated in your most recent rant. The raw projection in your diatribe and your total and complete lack of awareness of your blaring self-own truly made me laugh out loud. I’m guessing no one bought you the dictionary for Christmas we mentioned previously so I’ll help you out this one last time. The definition of “self-own” is: “an act by which one unintentionally embarrasses oneself”. You can’t see it, but the rest of us can. And it’s funny, in a sad sort of way.
