"Jesus Christ… fucking Frank Caliendo." The A.V. Club

God I love this crap so much. There's really something wrong with me.

Right. Well my title is "editor" at a PR firm, but honestly I spend way more time and energy doing project management.

Also, to back up your point of my wrongness, you link to an opinion piece. That's wrong.

Um… No, I'm not wrong. We can interpret "correct" usage differently, I suppose. But I work as a professional editor. Style guides say that it should be changed to "composed of" or "consisting of," because "comprised of" flips the subject and object of a phrase, rendering it gibberish. Should I be a pedant about usage?

Oh, it makes more sense framed that way. Thank you

Seriously? Gawd. Stay classy, Disney.

"comprised of" is nonsense grammatically. I wish people would stop using it. I know I'm fighting a losing battle, though.

Offsetting a long quote replaces the need for quotation marks at all, I would say.

P.S. you spelled "Guinea" wrong. Asshole.

Nope. Not at AVClub, dude.

Or the vibraslap and the guy barking in the background. God I love that band.

All the "Bob Dylan mumbles!" jokes in the comments here crack me up. Especially considering he's generally had tremendous diction through his career.

His mother had a Miscavige

Oh I freakin' LOVE The Rainbow Children.

Yes. Please no Kanye.

Twenty-one-oh-six? We should all be so lucky.

"Dylan hates the recording studio!" No. His methods are mercurial, but he's capable of being very engaged in the recording studio. Listen to the complete Blonde On Blonde sessions for an example of him working very hard to get the right arrangements and sound for the project.

The thing is, he DOESN'T really mumble. His words are very clear on stage, compared to any other act playing a loud show like that. But people repeat it over and over again: Dylan mumbles when he sings!
