A few of you may have noticed that I’ve been slacking in my editorial duties lately. Quite frankly, the mentality so consistently displayed by the Gang of Four and the SOLNA-based crank corps has left me struggling to find loquacity enough to portray the preposterousness of it all. There’re only so many ways to say stupid, even in New Albany.
In a desperate solicitation of my sorely missed muse, I fed the word “idiot” into a thesaurus. What follows below will undoubtedly look like a list of synonyms to most readers. Given the week’s worth of anguish and ennui that went into its realization, however ultimately simple, I prefer to think of it as poetry.

dunce

And then I got really inspired and decided to just show you:
Feel free to recite the poem again, speaking out loud of course.
