I Just Ran Into Stephen Glass.

by Little Miss Attila on February 27, 2009

The poor dear does mean well, but he invited me to (1) do coke, and (2) gang-rape a college girl.

I had to explain, very gently, that many women—those who think they are anti-feminist, those who are merely equity feminists, and those who are FMJ capital-F Feminists—aren’t down with rape. Furthermore, I told him, those of us who have allergies and pulmonary issues are not interested in cocaine, as a general rule.

He seemed hurt, and now I feel kind of bad. Poor thing.

He must be nuts. Getting worse even, spiraling down. He just can’t help himself. He should just resign himself to writing fiction, and be happy with that.

here’s an absurd thought –
your Supreme God says
always respect journalists

who claim fiction as facts
but won’t write a novel

More kernels of truth than the New Republic ever hazarded.
Mr. Glass then caught a cab, hoping to make it to the local morgue for a quickie.

That reference is… what? Thirteen years old? Awesome!

I missed CPAC this year. Too broke and nobody to pay my way this time. I saw you on blogger row last year, but I was much too intimidated to introduce myself. I’m such a putz.

Oh, good, you didn’t break the Glass. That’s what I thought when I read your head.
