Does he need a point? If that article had been posted here Tom would be the envy of flamers everywhere.


I disagree. Strip away the ten-dollar words, the counterfeit twelve-dollar words, the contortionist reasoning and limp phrasing, and what's left? No humor, no insight, no consistency of thought, and just a crass, angry branding of an entire race as animals, salted with transparent projection of his own faults upon them.

That his subject -- Japan -- is a fucking wellspring of pathos makes his article's failure all the more poignant.

As far as the content - who gives a fuck? It's a current pan-media fan in Japan to voice anti-American opinions; maybe his widdle feewings wuz hurt.


If he's taking it upon himself to answer their screeching, irrational anti-Americanism, maybe the response should rise above that, unless he thinks he can do "screeching and irrational" better than the Japs?


Ray, are you jealous that I'm calling other men's work scathing? Don't worry, baby, you're still the scathin'est. Why don't you email your comments to Tom? And post his answer here? Or make an article out of it? FLMAE WAR OF TEH TITANS.


I won't deny there's a sense of loss. Of what value is my five-star rating, when Howard the Duck gets four stars?

Ray!
