That's why it's strongly worded. Alas, tone and tongue-in-cheek are not grasped well when there is shock and awe. Really I can't see why anyone would take it any other way, what with the intense praise he was giving him.

- litmus 16y agoHow are these extremely strong judgements? getting pissed off that some retards make more than some great people you know has a long tradition in civilization. My favorite is the Saul Bellow line, "Only I'm good and tired of watching high-quality people fuck up in practical life, to the gratification of the vulgar." This seems to be the spirit in which this article is written. Clearly the "fuck-up" in this case only refers to the financial aspect of things.
