Buckley would have struggled to fit "panjandrum" and "Rodomontade" in 150 characters

[Note: At this point, Denton abruptly ended the interview but offered to answer additional questions via email. We've sent over questions and will update if we hear back.]
can't imagine WB Jr. or Vidal doing this

Flanner: "You act as if you were in private.... that's the odd way. You act as if you're the only people here. They're here. He's here. I'm here and I'm becoming very very bored. *blows a kiss*"^this here is what's up; wish there were more people fighting on television who aren't on news programs

Hamilton Nolan's boxing writing is as embarrassing as your typical Salon article btw. Deadspin needs to work on the niche sports writing. Really they need to work on everything over there.

There are in-groups. Hoo boy, there are in-groups.
― Three Word Username, Friday, 24 July 2015 05:55 (ten years ago)
Yeah but they don't announce themselves as such. I'm talking about a group that would stroll around this place wearing matching satin jackets, heads held high, communicating with one another with complicated multi-layered in jokes and throwing pies in the faces of anyone who got in their way.

denton told staffers he wants the new site to be “10 to 15 percent nicer” than the old site
realistic, measurable goals like these are very important to any successful business
― bizarro gazzara, Friday, 24 July 2015 14:19 (ten years ago)
Can nicer be measure by click-throughs? Maybe the site will remain the same, but they'll just toss in more stories about puppies to track that nicer metric.
