God, what a puling little pussy-fart.
I crawled in bed and cried for our pre-pandemic lives. Tears that had been waiting a month to escape.
I wanted to share because it feels freeing to do so. Now is not a time for faux-invincibility. Journos are living this, hating this, like everyone else. https://t.co/dIDujZZvQZ

Skating right by the sorry fact that so much of this phony panic has been generated by Enemedia collectively soiling their Underoos over it via their overwrought reportage, as we say down South: damn if I’da told it, pissant. The only thing remotely to Stelter’s credit here is that he’s almost certainly lying about this. Glenn treats Weepy Spudboy way more gently than I ever will, but hits the mark nonetheless:
Imagine a British journalist publicly stating something like this during The Blitz. Our media class really is like a bunch of middle-school girls.
Sheeeit. If I ever catch my own soon-to-be-middle school-age daughter behaving like Tater Stelter in even the smallest way, Daddy will take up a switch and stripe her little butt chartreuse. Insty includes a couple other good ripostes with that one, too.
Middle School girls have more guts than that wuss.
He sounds more like a 3 year old afraid of the dark and the monsters under the bed.
The tears-for-no-reason and mood swings typical of preteen-girl-itis are one of the special joys of parenthood.* But yah, if I caught my not-quite-teen daughter acting like that coward** I’d mock her thoroughly and then set on a training regimen to toughen her up.
* Dealing with the one is a chore. I know a woman with five daughters. I shook my head at her and said I sympathized with her but pitied her husband. Her normally stern demeanor broke and she laughed out loud at that.
** I have some doubts about Stelter’s tale of tears, but have no doubts of his cowardice, both physical and moral.
“I know a woman with five daughters”
Ouch. I have one. One is enough. She’s all grown up now with two boys. It’s truly unfair that she didn’t get at lest one girl. 🙂
“Journos are living this”
You’re no journalist you coward. You are nothing more than a paid propaganda artist.
After that “Hey! Look at me, me, ME!!!” tweet, I’d say he’s a paid performance artist.
Or that 🙂
Ugliest performance artist I ever seen. At least he should wear nose rings and sport tats and be half naked. That would be pretty…
…Vomit inducing but ain’t performance artists nowadays all vomit inducing? It’s like The Code Of The (FAKE) Theater!
BTW Have you watched a runway show lately? Models when I were 20 used to be people you’d dream of bedding. Now they’re nightmares you hope go away.
I mean Zoo Lander isn’t even a satire today. It’s a Nostalgia film.
“Now they’re nightmares you hope go away.”
I was flipping through channels a few months ago and stopped, briefly*, on one of those fashion shows. I thought I had stumbled across an ugly contest. And a few weeks later, the same.
