Stupid article. I didn't even read the whole thing, I couldn't get past this quote:

"Vonnegut was the American Mark Twain."

NO NO NO!!! MARK TWAIN was the American Mark Twain. I'm pretty sure about this. Honestly, what is wrong with people?!?

:rofl: I saw this article on somebody's blog the other day, and much to my credit (considering that I often wonder if my brain atrophying from disuse) I did manage to pick up on the utter idiocy of that quote ("Uh, wait, now isn't Mark Twain the American Mark Twain?") before being told how very wrong it was. Guess my brain isn't the only brain in danger of atrophying from disuse. :giggle:

At least it's just some idiot they interviewed who said that. :duh: For a minute there I was thinking that somebody at the Washington Post was in deep doo-doo! :lol:
