At least Roger has an Oscar nomination and Charles Johnson was a professional musician. But Jeff Goldstein and Security Mom? Who the fuck are those no talent jerks, and why would anybody pay them to write awful boring derivative unfunny suckass posts?

Tim -

I'll pay you to stop being a fucking idiot.

I agree with Bill. This is not a matter of credentials, this is a matter of talent. Alas, this is also why I have an issue with the PM/OSM as it seems to be the antithesis of a meritocracy.

protein wisdom: PROUD MEMBER OF THE ANTITHESIS OF A MERITOCRACY!

MAY HIS MEDIOCRITY FOREVER REIGN!

Incidentally, Tim? I touched your sister in her secret places. Lots.

Jeff, that was me, not Tim's sister.

Ah Jeff, your mediocrity outshines much that is meritorious.

And I have no sister for you to touch. Don't even go there.

I better get back to my nachos and smokes and keep my bitter (because I wasn't invited to hang with Moxie) opinion to my celibate and lonesome self. HA! I love to smell farts! Especially those from Roger Simon!

This is unbelievable! I might have to go out and burn a few cars.

I guess I don't understand the vitriolic obsession with the OSM folks. If it fails, it fails, right? If you don't like it, don't read it.

I am indeed puzzled by OSM's business model, but equally puzzled at the mudslinging. What gives?

I think the naysayers were pretty polite about their doubts at first, but a few defensive remarks kind of got the ball rolling in this other direction.

I just want to thank Moxie for helping me say what I really mean, during the season of giving. And I'd like to give any man's cornhole a good licking.

You're hereby invited to join Lion Media, instead. Egos smaller, benefits larger, and absolutely no fedoras to be found anywhere.

Jealous much?

In spite of Martin's indelicate offer, I think he deserves credit for his gracious acceptance of Moxie's proofreading skills.

I am more amused than offended at your repeated editing of my pithy remarks. You have fallen into the trap that so many of your generation (Y) have fallen into in that you think that insults trump reason. It is obvious that you want your site to attract the vagrants of society and thus shut out those of us who read Hayek and Burke and have something to share that would enlighten the rubes who read your musings. I am ashamed to think that Instapundit has listed you on his blog roll. Does he even read your tripe? I doubt it. Thank you for proving that conservatives can be just as inane and jejune and puerile as liberals. I demand that you return my comments to their original state or I will be forced to e-mail Glenn Reynolds and expose you for the insipid little clown that you are. This will most likely result in your being dropped from his blog-roll; the subsequent reduction in hits to your site will be dramatic and entirely justified. I am trusting that you will do the right thing.

OH SHIT.

Hurry, Moxie! Put it back!

Not the delinking! Noooo!

Hmmmm. Did she help him with this one, or did she just let it go through because it would just be too much work to make him sound more ridiculous?

Joe, you nailed it. Martin did fine on his own -- for a change. I'm going to give him a 10 on the ridiculous comment scale. I'm soooooo terrified by his threats! Someone call the Internet police!

Other commenters are welcome to grade him as well.

Look, if somebody calls you 'jejune and puerile,' the only thing you can do is laugh heartily in his face. After eating a large pastrami with onions.

When used as an insult, the words 'jejune and puerile' rival 'banana' in funniness.

Remember Charles Winchester on M*A*S*H?

Moxie, Moxie...

Clearly it's not nice to make fun of a retard. I'm going to tell the teacher on you, who will send you to the principal where you will probably have to bend over and... you know the routine.

Clearly this is the post where you make demands of Moxie.
OK.

I DEMAND you post more cool photos or I shall be forced- against my will- to write a letter to another blogger and call you a poopy-pants.

HAH!
Take that.
I'll see you crawling yet, Missy.

My drink could use a little freshening too...
