George Will is better than you

So, anytime I'm with the family discussing some hollywood piece-of-shit movie, or the quality of discourse in America, my sister calls me an elitist... Well, if I'm an elitist, I don't know that we can even begin to define how fucking lame George Will, the conservative commentator from the Washington Post and Newsweek, is.

At any rate, George Will obviously didn't have any facts to distort about the severity of Global Warming, so he used his space in his Post column today to mock Americans for wearing denim. Seriously, George Will is the last person who should be judging others for their fashion choices.

Will lobbs several insults towards the denim-wearing unwashed masses in his piece. My favorite put-down occurred when Will claims that "Denim is the infantile uniform of a nation in which entertainment frequently features childlike adults and cartoons for adults." Way to keep it classy, George! I suppose it's all ok since he's mostly just elaborating on the thoughts of some douchebag named Daniel Akst. I don't know who he is, so I'm gonna just stay mad at boy George.

I personally am a fan of denim, and will continue to use it as my go-to casual wear because it's comfortable and matches with EVERYTHING. Also, it's hard for people to tell when denim gets dirty. That's pretty key for me.



On a side note, I'd like to welcome new writer to Driving In Silence, Give Him A Gun. He is both a gentleman and a scholar and may be responsible for a change in our web address soon.* Keep an eye out for his posts.

* By "gentleman and a scholar," I of course mean "guy who texts me from the toilet."

I might be induced to start a weekly "From the Toilet" series on DIS. Just dare me!

that's a lot of content to come up with at such a stressful time. I wouldn't want you to develop a hemroid.
