Rather than burning the New Yorker, I have an alternative

[CreekDog]

that we quote things that display higher literary value than this week's New Yorker cover (I'll get us started):

Amy Winehouse -- Loves Blake, Hates Living

"Amy Winehouse showed her dedication to two things while on stage in Scotland today -- her love for jailed hubby Blake Fielder-Civil and her continued effort to not be alive when he gets out." (source TMZ.COM)

1. God Amy Winehouse annoys me.

Waste of talent on a crackhead skank.

3. not that much talent frankly

still a waste tho

[liberalmuse]

5. Surely you jest!

Let the Winehouse war begin! :)

2. I don't have a quote, but...

On the Winehouse thing...it's too bad they can't transplant her voice into someone who isn't fucked up. What a waste. And yes, I believe this takes precedence over the you-know-what.

6. It really is sad to watch her kill herself.

Imagine the long career she could have!

4. Brangelina had twins! A boy and a girl.

While the other hot couple with twins, JLo & Marc, have nanny trouble!! Oh no!!!!!

(to be honest, I had to go to msnbc.com's entertainment page for this - I didn't know it already)

7. How do you like those names?

I forgot the boy's name.
The girl is Viviene Marcherline I think?
