wwew 4 years agoif i was king i’d ban the word snark because its so tired and just plain sounds bad. its a word the dull and banal use to appear hip and with it. and lets not forget the hausfraus throughout the land that go all a-twitter when they say or hear something is going to be “snarky.”

Eric Buth 4 years agoDenby is an idiot. His mis-analysis of Wonkette (no longer part of Gawker, btw) is reason enough to believe his entire book is utter B.S. He is attempting to tie the tactic of Snark to the strategy of sites like Gawker, all the while making wild assumptions that alternate between offensive and idiotic. Also, he has no sense of humor.
