Where did you come from, at least at this exact moment? Are you using your great-writing nom de plume? It makes it sound like you hate everything, although there is only one z. I get the DiS newsletter. Should I stop? Or maybe you can link me to something with your awesomeness?

This is a puzzling reply. You disagree that DIS sucks, but then you claim to be an amazing writer AND the exception to their norm. Methinks you have contradicted yourself, sir.

But this was amazing writing.

Fuck you very much!

amount to something more than a message board moderator. then come back and talk to me.

Hey, Raz, you did notice that the vast majority of replies in this nine-month old thread come down in favor of DiS, right?

Oh, and your reply was by not means grammatically correct. I mean, you're already a fucking amazing writer, imagine how fucking totally amazing you can be if you tweak that a bit.

Or, more to the point, lighten up!

Um, dude, he's a college professor. WTF are you (except an amazing writer, of course)?

He's right though, that Raz is shit hot.

As opposed to a self-congratulatory music writer? If you want to play compare life's accomplishments, I'm game. I do a whole lot more than moderate on these Forums.

The funny part is that I actually LIKE Drowned in Sound, and I was trying to make a joke about your puzzling little post. I'm sure that if I wrote for a magazine and there was a thread devoted to how bad my mag was, I'd be pissed, too. But when you simply resort to stupid ad hominem arguments, particularly against someone who wasn't even taking shots at you, I really don't have any interest in your awesome writing.

Wow. Forget I ever said anything nice about DiS.

Wow. That's mean and uncalled for.

Why didn't anybody tell me this thread existed???

Because we figured since you've posted in it that you'd received the memo?

Jeebus, m.l, quit outsourcing your surfing to your intern. You're missing good material!
