Favorite poster from NR's "The Corner"

On the Elevator [Jay Nordlinger]

Today, on the elevator, I met a man - a fan of my work, who gave me a firm handshake. We laughed about global cooling and Obama's children: what if they had to attend a public school? When the elevator doors opened, he exited before me, turned, and said with a wink "by the way, I am the other kind of teabagger." I felt 'OK'.

~LOL~

looooooooooooooool

hahaha wtf does that last sentence even mean

maybe it wasn't him ;)

love the idea that nordlinger got hit on & assumed it was just a devotee to the cause

The handshake was firm, some would even say it was rock hard.

I felt 'OK'.

"You make my pee-pee maker t-t-tingle."

is he really marveling at having felt 'ok' about sharing close quarters and a joke with a gay man? and noting with surprise that his wrists were not actually limp?

tune in next week when jay nordlinger meets a mexican who doesn't snooze all afternoon.

I like the idea of Nordlinger ending up having sex with a man because of confusion over the definition of teabagging.

Can't wait for the general NRO slash fic.

"Victor's hand gently pressed my thigh. 'Jay, it's good, but there needs to be more about Spartans.' I felt a new sense of the possibilities."

why the quotation marks around OK?

like is "OK" hip new slang to nordy?

"OK" is part of the "jive lingo" the "kids" today use.

ha, you know i totally bought that nordlinger post as real. makes me think there's no stupid thing that i won't believe a cornerite capable of saying.

I had no idea it was faked!

This is real though!

Re: Teabagger [Kathryn Jean Lopez]

I suspect many of the people who will happily describe their movement as such will not really know of or not particularly care about the definition 360 and the rest are into. I may be delusional, but I think the American Revolution still trumps the urban dictionary in much of the country.

oh how i wish my high school history teachers had talked about the teabaggers of the revolution...

I may be delusional,

good work. can you get rid of the blue box?

(here come 100 puns re: K-Lo's blue box)

No, because it highlights the firm, supple quality of her teats.

i guess i deserve that

i'll give you supple, but firm?????

omg it's awkward http://tv.nationalreview.com/offthepage/post/?q=NGMwMTMxYTk0MTYyMWUwNzM3YTM0YjI5NGRlNTY4N2E=#at

she looks like an agitated roseanne barr

so now I am really confused, why does this woman have a career

I mean, I assumed there was some baseline competency there but apparently that's not the case, so how the hell did she end up being successful?

the firm, supple quality of her teats?

hate u

feeding off the pulchritudinous, gaseous misogyny of her enemies (yes I know she ugly beyond a shadow but seriously, guys) despite a complete lack of feminism on her part. Every time you serve it to the beast, she eats her fill.

kinda wonder how her colleagues feel about her

thanks suzy

"Every time you serve it to the beast, she eats her fill."
is this a fat joke?

well, certain men will bone up for the crack of dawn so WHO KNOWS.

lolforks maybe should have gone with 'oxygen of publicity' metaphor as opposed to FEED THE BEAST demon metaphor.

"Ohta su marvalic plesodoro"

feeding off the pulchritudinous, gaseous misogyny of her enemies

i like the idea that she would come to this thread and try to eat it

certain men will bone up for the crack of dawn so WHO KNOWS

RESIST JOKES

c'mon, Alfred. Give it your best. . . shot

... So she is successful because she eats our beautiful woman-hating farts???? I am even more confused.

This was funny because KLo started whining before doing any research whatsoever:

Brad Thor Is One Brave Author [Kathryn Jean Lopez]

In response to Larry David's crass use of a painting of Christ on Curb Your Enthusiasm this past weekend, Thor, the bestselling fiction writer comments in his social media worlds: "All I want to know is, when is the Muslim episode?"

Thor, of course, is not asking for Mohammed to be similarly used in an upcoming episode. He's simply pointing out that that would likely never be allowed to air. And Flemming Rose can tell you why.

(Listen to Brad Thor on NRO this summer here.)

UPDATE: A reader writes:

Hi K-Lo:

HUGE Corner/NRO fan, but I have to correct you on Curb Your Enthusiasm
post. Larry David had a hilarious episode a few years ago where he
actually did mock Muslims wearing burqas (if I recall correctly, he
set up a blind friend of his with a Muslim woman wearing a burqa, with
disastrous results). His humor is incredibly crass, but he's an equal-
opportunity offender.

kinda wonder how her colleagues feel about her

Judging by the way they let her walk around the NRO office with no makeup and her hair looking like it's been licked by a dog a few times, not very much.

And Jonah has no room to speak, appearance-wise.

jesus christ alfred

xp

her hair looking like it's been licked by a dog a few times

totally, seriously, earnestly for real: in awe of this image

you should really come up for my friend's Oscar party and do color commentary

"licked by a dog a few times"
