I’m dissapointed his praise of Mark Sanchez didn’t earn a .gif on this post of his WHOOPSIE in the endzone last game.

Upset face, exclamation mark.

Maybe it was because it was buried in the paragraph about Billy Bob but how did Brett being “An incredibly good mime” go undetected? Has anyone who has ever been described as an incredibly good mine been someone you wanted to meet?

Lo, friends. We have beheld the birth of the Peter (King) Principle. Who sez blind perseverance and sycophancy won’t bring their own reward?

If he’s so fekking rich why didn’t he pay for Z’s extra treatment instead of scamming for it?

There could be a Book of the Month Club for Poseur Douchebags Who Don’t Really Read:

Sun Tzu, Bukowski, Chomski, Zinn, every Beat writer, Sylvia Plath (to get laid)…

I actually read the WSJ, how the fuck did I miss this? To be fair to PK, if somebody offered me ridiculous money to shit out a column a couple times a week, there is no instrument on earth that could measure how fast I would say yes to that. So yeah, we can blame PK’s no-taste-or intelligence-having fanbase for his hefty salary. PK’s just selling out. It’s the American way.

Truth. And I don’t think any one of is can deny it for a second. I’d love to get paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to write about something and instead go off on virtually any other topic in the world that suits my fancy.

“I’m the first to admit that I’ve kept around books that I haven’t read so people will see them and think I’m smarter than I actually am. I mean, a strategically-placed book of Ann Sexton poems (which I never read) helped me get laid in college, so I know about this, but the ‘Art of War’ gambit is the douchiest of douche moves. It ensures that you’re an egotistical, uptight asshole who reduces every subject and situation to aphorisms about war. I know because I used to keep ‘Art of War’ on my coffee table.”

I just assumed that the latest faux intellectual book was “Freakonomics” or “The Tipping Point.”* I should have known that PK’s go-to book for wisdom would be as out of date as all his other references.

* I have never read either of these so they may be OK

Do people still think having a copy of “The Art of War” is the mark of a true intellectual? Damn…
