xp "I am happy to be able to go back on my parents' health insurance now thanks to President Obama," said self-employed writer David Shapiro, 22, "because what if something bad happened, like I'm at a music festival and a tent collapses and part of the ceiling lands on my back and paralyzes me, and I don't have health insurance. I would be screwed worse than Travis Morrison was screwed when Pitchfork decided to give his album their lowest possible rating of 0.0 because they thought it was too goofy, even though Travis Morrison had always been a pretty goofy guy and they never seemed to care, but I guess Pitchfork was trying to be taken more seriously in those days and had to shed a lot of their old baggage, and I just hope President Obama is able to shed some of this country's baggage, like ending the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, or legalizing pot, even though I feel sorry for all the Travis Morrisons of the world who will get a little hurt in the process."

btw just in case anyone is wondering I was particularly proud of the clause when Pitchfork decided to give his album their lowest possible rating of 0.0

He only updates his blog about once a month now, so he must be doing something.
