That’s not entirely fair; when you have a deadline and need to publish x amount of articles a week, you can’t be expected to get it right in rough draft every time. Thus the need for editors.

I don’t think Barsanti is a good writer by any means, but this falls to editing. 

He stands like a one-year-old.

Today I watched a man defend his corporate overlords and boldly equate youtube with the library of Alexandria. This is truly the dumbest timeline.

I’m in this situation right now and there’s no guarantee you can get your passport on the same day. I’ve called many times over the past week, and was told repeatedly “It’s up to the agent’s discretion if you’ll receive that passport that day” and “there’s a limited number of passports an office can give out…

I always thought these rude concept restaurants were stupid; there’s enough nastiness in the world.

Don’t body shame.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: nationalize the railroads.

Oof, the unbearable cringe of executive ego. 

I’m not going to be nice, shake his hand, or help him locate the big English Cucumbers he’s going to stick in his ass, later this evening.

Awesome article! I had no idea landfills were any more sophisticated than “turn a hole into a hill with trash and fuhgeddaboudit.” If Giz is open to topic suggestions, can you write a similar piece garbage incinerators? Some municipalities claim they have environmental benefits over landfills, but it seems like a…
