Helm I don't really care about Michael (maybe because I'm on another part of the world where what he does isn't daily exposed in the press) and I don't laugh out loud easily, but some parts had me giggling. So I suppose as far as I can tell, you did a good job.

Here's your little abobo.

sadie jixby was on a small roll. buttered, maybe?

Captain Robo It's funny you should mention Martin Luter King Jr. because he actually came to my school (Grosse Pointe South High School) in 1962.

However, back then, Grosse Pointe-rs were racist assholes and they booed him off the stage

Rez yes.

Would you fault Jesus Christ if he had Michael Jackson’s insatiable lust for young, nubile boys? Most certainly not. Or would you criticize Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. if he bleached his skin to the point of translucence and had numerous surgeries to sharpen his face to a fine point? I rest my case.

AChimp I think you should be submitting stuff to me rather than your campus newspaper.

Nah, I would just tell them that they're right so they can just continue to embarrass themselves every time they criticize other people's work.

I thought the article was pretty straight up because I'm sick of hearing about Jacko.

Zbu Manowar Les,

It was funny. Whomever doesn't get it is obviously people who think Erma Bombeck is too racy.

Tell them to fuck off.

jailbaitmonger There were a lot of words, and I didn't think I was going to read it.

Then I did.

Good job Les. It made me chuckle on several occasions.
Feb 21st, 2003 12:16 AM
sadie bobo, don't be . you make me .
Feb 21st, 2003 12:11 AM

Vomit I only 'skimmed' thru it and I saw something about Bea Arthur's genenatlia(sp? ). It sounded gross. !

Protoclown Well Les, all I can talk about is my writing here on I-Mockery, but I've done a fair bit of it and I've probably had a decent number of people read one of my articles at some point or another.

And in my experience, about 90% of the feedback you will get is scathingly, harshly negative. It's the people that hate you that always are the most vocal in their feedback...which gives the illusion that there are far more people that hate you than like you. Who knows, it may be true. But does it matter?

Still, the few people out there who actually enjoy it and take the time to let you know it ALMOST make it all worth it.

Les Waste I think everyone on campus either thinks I'm hilarious or thinks I suck more than anything has ever sucked in the history of the world and things that suck.

In my journalism class, my professor requires all the students to critique the newspaper. I was reading the critiques of my section, and they all either said it was the worst section of the paper and shouldn't even be in it, or it was the first thing they go to when they read it.

All the negative criticism depressed the hell out of me though. Because it was really, really harsh.

I think I should be seeing a therapist

FS It's not without its charm. Maybe you should try lighting it on fire.

For example, years ago Jackson might have seen a ghost and the following shock might have left Jackson pale with fear.
This made me LOL

Certainly nothing worth blowing up about, like the guy from that hatemail did. Maybe he once bathed with Michael Jackson and Jacko grabbed his rubber ducky

Les Waste Here's a piece of email I found waiting for me this morning

Quote:
Alright. As a first time reader of your online paper, I can't truly dis Chris
b/c I have no clue if he truly sucks. But if your "Leave Jacko Alone" attempt at
satire is any reflection of your work, then yes Chris, you suck.
Look, you're still in school. There's still hope for you to develop your voice,
until then, please don't attempt humor again... EVER.
First and second graf: funny.
Third, fourth and fifth graf: You'd been better off expressing this in a straigh
column. Here, you're pushing it and showing that yes, humorous writing sometimes
lacks humor.
Rest of the story: Well, Chris, you don't work for the onion. leave the satire
to writers.
Satire, good. "Leave Jacko Alone," congested.
Your attempt at clever writing, or whatever you called that "Jacko" piece, just
plain sucked.
better luck next time. I hear Michael Jackson's doing something on FOX thursday,
maybe you can pick up and try again. Or, maybe a less cliche story subject and
really stretch your journalism school muscles.

I replied back with:

Why hello! I am so glad an expert of humor emailed me to tell me what is wrong with me! Excellent! I really consider myself so lucky that you would take time out of your busy schedule of masturbating and eating corn chips to critique my column. I have a great idea! Why don't you come and do my job for me? Oh wait, I forgot. You can't because you're barely semi-literate! My mistake!

Next time you feel like writing a stupid email, why don't you just have a stick of gum? Good luck with that!
The reply to my reply indicated that he didn't get it.
