- morkalork 3y agoThanks, now I have a mental image of the author as a late middle aged man in a drab brown office, working for a low-rent paper, sitting behind a desk with an old computer that hasn't changed since '98, leaning back and doing crosswords in between writing articles lamenting today's youths and technology. With maybe a overcoat and beaten up fedora hanging up behind him. He smiles slightly while working on the puzzle, hornswoggle, that's the one he's going to sneak into the next article.
