For those criticizing the delivery, I think the author is borrowing from a classic Ed Norton mirror rant from the film 25th hour. Probably on youtube.

- praneshp 8y agoSecond most elegant use of fucks, after the Wire scene.
- walshemj 8y agoI take it you have not seen "the thick of it" and that's just middle class actors playing a role- I do know people who are the real deal :-)
- Buldak 8y agoFunny, that rant turns into a love letter to New York by the end (Norton is expressing his frustration at what he'll miss when he goes to prison). If this Medium rant has a similar denouement it's even more subtle.
- colinbartlett 8y agoIt's a great scene, which many interpret as more of a love letter to the city than actual vitriol. By the end, one realizes Ed Norton's character, Monty, is mostly mad at himself. One can arguably make a similar interpretation of this piece. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4OYe3uk8Fi8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4OYe3uk8Fi8
