Snarky Boy likes feedback, especially when it’s instant and honest. So a big thank you to John Odum, formerly of blogland (Green Mountain Daily) but now the news editor for the free bi-weekly in Montpelier, The Bridge, for his near-maniacal one-figure wave today in the capital city.
Yeah, that finger. Cool. Express yourself, Johnny-boy.
Poor guy. Word amongst his pals is that he’s taking his recent shit-canning from being the assistant to the coffeemaker (or something like that) at Vermont Natural Resources Council pretty hard.
And we all know he’s been hoping beyond hope to land a job with his coveted Democratic Party – any job, please! But “slam” go the doors there, too, even for a guy like Odum with fresh-party-boot-licking on his breath.
But I guess shitty bloggers with skin as thin as a Trojan condom aren’t in high demand.
So Odum had to hope his five reader-friends would forget all that he had said about the “legacy media” (read: print) being dead and bankrupt because – ahem – he’s now peddling his rambling prose in the…wait for it… “legacy media.” And that’s being kind to The Bridge, because it is, after all, a free bi-weekly. Double ouch.
So giving Snarky Boy the old one-finger-salute must have felt good. Whatever it takes. Get it off your chest, my friend.
And that goes for the rest of you, too.
Bring it.
