His Cross to Bear To the Publishers:

I went into a juice bar and I picked up one of your papers. I know you want to know what my opinion is. Well, I think it’s disgusting and it doesn’t belong in this neighborhood. Keep it in your neighborhood.

Brooklyn

Well, if you had included your return address we’d know where in Brooklyn to double our distribution. Now we’ll have to do the whole borough. Sheesh.

Even The Contributors Get Into the Act

I know Sheriff Dixie is usually kind of judgemental, but if she maybe understood other cultures have different spirituality and meditative practices, maybe tai-chi wouldn’t look so "scary." That was a bit too far over the uncool line.

Via the Internet

Relax, Jennifer. It’s spring. The birds are chirping and everyone is doing weird and strange stuff in the park. I make fun of things I do as well (my dumb leather jacket, fads, etc.) I was raised Catholic, but it doesn’t mean that I like people shouting Bible verses at me on the subway. Jeez. By the way, I’m very proud to be an "uncool" meat-eating, fur-wearing, politically incorrect babe. Maybe you’ll like my movie review better. There’s no mention of tai chi in it. Thank God.
