*adding this to the Big List O' Euphemisms*

Suh-nerk.

Awww, thanks, Snacky!

God, I'm loving Teevee.org today. I could spend hours reading this. Must have taken them months to prep this.

I remember they did a spoof last year but I forget what it was. A studio website or something?

I love it that one of the Letters in response to the article is by Noam Jenkins. Hah!

teevee.org is hilarious -- thanks for the link, Snacky!

Damn you, Snacky, you beat me to it. Now I feel like I did when those mean girls didn't elect me Homecoming Queen at the prom ...

See how I am?

Snacky, I can't BREATHE, that was so funny.

Oh, my god, that's incredibly funny, and so dead-on. I started wincing here:

I'm the one with the liberal-arts degree from a good private school, who opens her stories with passages from Yeats and writes about the drag-queen personae of vampires forced to pass as people.

I started wincing here:

Umm, yeah, pretty much guilty as charged here.

Dear Nestra,

My name is Mercedes and I work for Xlibris, a print-on-demand self-publishing company. If you don't mind, I wanted to take a moment to let you know how we can help you become a publishing success.

My thought process:

"April Fool's Day? Legitimate but clueless? Scam? Scam."

Oh! Dana, I just saw this on someone's LJ the other day. (Ajhalluk's, actually.) I think the determination was that it wasn't quite a scam. But... not promising, in any event.

Huh. I got that this morning, too, Dana.
