Scarequotes of the Day!

Over at Uncertain Principles, “Chad” “Orzel” writes

Over at Unqualified Offerings, “Thoreau” offers some musings about peer review.

Note to self: When NaNoWriMo is over, add disclosure to About page admitting that our Thoreau isn’t the real Thoreau. Also ‘fess up about Mona being Jenna Bush . . .

    Also ‘fess up about Mona being Jenna Bush . . .

    You silly goose, most have guessed by now that given my deeply brunette status and affection for my birth name, I’m Mona Charen.

    “You silly goose, most have guessed by now that given my deeply brunette status and affection for my birth name, I’m Mona Charen. ”

    Mona, at your worst, with a quaalude-and-whiskey combo squatting on your brain like a sumo toad, you’re not as bad as Mona Charen. Heck, internet trolls take *years* of sitting in their parents’ basements to work their way down near the level of certain MSM pundits.

    Will the real Henry David please stand up?
    I repeat: Will the real Henry David please stand up?

    We’re gonna have a problem here.

    Ya’ll act like you’ve never seen a science blogger before, jaws all on the floor…

    Mona, what Barry said, except that I think it would take more than whiskey and quaaludes to make you like Mona Charen. You’d have to start out with some kind of basic cognitive impairment and add the whiskey and quaaludes. As for being Jenna, I haven’t seen anyone trying to use a fake ID at Chuy’s lately, so maybe . . . . BTW, if you want a drink at Chuy’s, call me and I’ll buy you one.

    Guys and gals, if I can’t pass as Mona Chare, what meaning have I left in life!? She’s a Very Serious pundit and TeeVee commentator.

    My career aspirations now lie in ruins….
