    Coran O’Brien? Isn’t it usually Koran or Quran?

    And 5+ hours after posting it, the author can’t be bothered to say either “Nope, that’s all there was” or otherwise respond to a single one of the many questions about how the piece appears to stop mid-thought and mid-paragraph?

    With three years and $60m left on his contract AFTER this year, he’s a worry-free guy.

    Is there an alternate keyboard or a workaround so that I could use terrible olde-timey things like commas and quotation marks without switching screens or is Forced Illiteracy just inevitable?

    SO glad you posted this one...I kept waiting for it in Kevin’s otherwise excellent piece. I remember reading this as a 7-year-old in 1964. A few decades later, I was reminded of it in Wes Anderson’s “Rushmore.”

    Like they always say: If it looks like a dick, and quacks like a dick...

    “Don’t trust anonymous sources” — oh well, there goes Watergate, the Pentagon Papers, etc. etc. The point is to trust anonymous sources if they’ve survived professional editing, a la NY Times or WaPo, and NOT to trust idiotic listicles like this that have no byline or imprimatur of a legit news organization.

    It’s spelled Damien CHAZELLE.

    More like Sean Doolots. Bravo.

    Airports do not mark up the cover price of magazines or books.

    It’s STILL update 2.4.3, not 2.3.4.

    “Public Outrage”? Outside of MSNBC and Brooklyn, there was none. For better or worse, Trump’s tweet was a lot wetter than a drop in the bucket.

    Hey, *I* still watch that Sunday-morning show with Mike Lupica. Watching his little legs swing back and forth under his chair, just inches short of touching the floor, never gets old.

    How in the hell did Ann Coulter’s “In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome” NOT make anyone’s list? Lamestream book reviewers...
