Is there a worst small town newspaper in the world contest? Because I need to nominate DH's hometown rag. It's really fucking awful. If you stick it out to the end of this article, you'll be rewarded with some of the dumbest sentences in journalism history.

I need to stop reading this paper.

Oh Cashmere. It's nice that they let middle-schoolers write their articles.

Middle-schoolers from the special class...

In a foreign country....

That writer is the editor-in-chief. He's got to be in his 70's by now. DH used to work at a gas & sip across the street from the newspaper's office. Around 4 a.m., the editor would wander across the street to get an ice cream bar. He's sit down at one of the booths and fall asleep with the ice cream melting down his hand.

He's also fond of the semi-colon in his four column headlines. They read like 19th century headlines.

This particular article starts off as just kind of small town. Then it crescendos into phenomenally bad.

It's so neat that Cashmere's reality is much more interesting than anything we could come up with.

Forgot to record NCIS, dammit. I wanted to see who got killed off.

Anne, I could tell you, if you want. I'm sorry, but I didn't tape.

I will tell you (not who) that it pissed me right off. I could be permanently soured.

Edited in case it was spoiling! Didn't think.

Oh, I don't mind being spoiled. Is the possible permanent souring related to the who was killed or how it was portrayed?

That self-referential quiz is kicking my butt. I keep getting down to 2 wrong, but never the same 2.
