THAT DARN NYT STYLES SECTION!
CANNOT BELIEVE HOW OUT OF TOUCH AND IRRELEVANT THEY ARE ABOUT [this coming weekend’s story]. WHY DO THEY EVEN TRY TO WRITE ABOUT [this coming weekend’s story]? DON’T THEY KNOW [this coming weekend’s story] WAS ALREADY WRITTEN ABOUT ON THE INTERNET? NO ONE I KNOW STILL CARES ABOUT [this coming weekend’s story].
——
Coming soon to all the blogs [this weekend, or if you’re lazy, on Monday]!

Laughing uncontrollably at the Important Announcement, but you forgot the cell tower, topless club, high tension power lines.
I did not forget the topless club, I assure you.
I'm riding in a lovely New Jersey Transit train car over the weekend and we're passing through lovely northern New Jersey and I'm staring out the window at the skyline and in the window I keep seeing the reflection of this advertisement at the head of the car for an upcoming A&E series called "The Glades" starring Matt Passmore in the role of Jim Longworth ("an attractive, brilliant, yet hard to get along with homicide detective)", and I'm seeing the reflection of this guy and thinking that he looks a lot like someone I know, so I turn and look at the actual poster and I realize no, he doesn't look at all like anyone I know, and then I go back to looking at the skyline and I see the poster's reflection again and again I get to thinking about how he looks a lot like someone I know, and after going through this a half a dozen times or so it occurs to me that he doesn't in fact look like anyone I know, but in the reflection of this train car window his tacky sunglasses and even tackier hair gel are obscured enough to basically render him just some blurry brown-haired guy in a black shirt and so, yes, given this he vaguely resembles the Tumblr avatar of one Chris Mohney.
WELL. One flattering Photoshop comparison coming up!
I just read your important announcement about the things you're going to build. My friend Keri snorts when she laughs really hard. As Keri would say: Snort!
Does Keri actually say the word “snort” when she snorts? I applaud her dedication.
