I have a very hard time getting through those stories, the writing is horrendous. Antar sure is a better writer than the person trying to expose him. What is laryngitis and why is Sam Antar a bad person for having it?
If you could spare the time for a tl;dr I'd be interested :)
- dsr_ 10y agoIt's not really laryngitis. "Sam Antar, generally not short of opinion, has suddenly developed laryngitis." That's a metaphor. It means that Antar is suddenly not talking when the subject changes to Barry Minkow, and the author's opinion is that this is because they are or were in a criminal conspiracy.
- skrebbel 10y agoI figured as much. My complaint is that I have to read up on some obscure disease as well as a certain Barry Minkow just to start getting an idea of why/how Sam Altar is still running cons. But yeah, fair enough, maybe that's what I should've written then :)
- fjdlwlv 10y agoIn USA English, laryngitis is a common word.
- skrebbel 10y agoAh right, thanks. I didn't know that so obviously my attempt at humour came off as stupid :)
- falsedan 10y ago> some obscure disease I don't know whether to bemoan the decline of literary education in recent years, or applaud the improvments in medical treatments…
