Yes, the past decade has been uniformly pretty shitty
No one is disputing that
But I’d love it if for once, people on this damn website would put aside their “I THINK MORE CRITICALLY THAN YOU!!!!!!” blue ribbons and just respect the fact that there were more than 2,000 innocent lives lost that day. No matter what justification you may come up with — American...

Go out and get a blowjob
Tony Soprano: These fuckin' women, they'll drive you nuts with their emotions and whatnot. And I know it feels like you're never gonna love anybody again. But trust me, there's millions of girls that are dyin' to meet a guy like you. I see 'em every day.
Anthony Soprano, Jr.: Oh, right. I'm so special.
Tony Soprano: You're damn right you are. You're handsome, and smart, and hard worker, and - let's be honest - white. That's a huge plus nowadays... Go out and get a blowjob.

ubiquitousamericana:
It’s come to my attention that, since Rick Barthelme is (very unfortunately) no longer the director of the Southern Miss Center for Writers, his 39 Steps aren’t on the Center’s site anymore. So I’m putting them here so they don’t disappear into the internet abyss.
