It's hard to discipline yourself not to explain yourself or apologize.

I can't explain why I don't read comments. Maybe because I worked at Time for so long and they don't have them, so I keep forgetting that they're there.

If New Vegas foretells something about America's future, then the culture wars are all but over, and culture lost.

I hate walking up to strangers.

I think the local food movement has been taken to idiotic extremes. And so I wrote about that and people got pissed.

People are different in different situations and people are different online than they are in real life.

Early on, even in college, I figured out that it was just more interesting to me to create content than to write about other people. So that makes it more marketable.
