The mini-bio that accompanies Truth/Slant’s blog posts written by Rolling Stone’s Matt Taibbi:

I’m a political reporter for Rolling Stone magazine, a sports columnist for Men’s Journal, and I also write books for a Random House imprint called Spiegel and Grau. My main ambition in life is to someday strangle that chick in the Progressive Insurance commercials who is always waving her hands back and forth and screaming, “Discount!!!” Anyone who has suggestions for how to dump her body without being caught is welcome to write to me. I already have plenty of plastic and a staple-gun.

It may be (and I’d be inclined to believe it, if evidence were to surface) that [Thomas] Friedman is actually a member of an alien civilization that recognizes not two genders but nine and has fifteen different ways to be naked.

Here’s another quote from the same post:

“Really? That was only the first time you saw that? I mean, shit, who hasn’t seen a crocodile, with just the slightest flip of its snout, devour a brown bass with one gulp after emerging from the banks of the muddy Tempisque river in Costa Rica with the foot-long fish writhing in its jaws? I’d make another joke about this, but it’s awfully like a line in my own memoirs: ‘I looked up and saw four black transvestities, their eye-liner glittering in the Alsatian moonlight, passing a skull-bong back and forth in the fraying wicker basket of a silver-and-purple covered hot air balloon. Never saw that before.’”
