Title: A certain somebody got quoted in the NY Post ...
Post by: daveB from Oakland on June 28, 2012, 06:06:23 PM

In case you didn't see it on the Facebooks or the Twitters, some guy named JW posted this, along with the comment "I want it known that my tombstone should include 'Drummer at indie rock band Superchunk'."

It's a state of mind, man.

I came here to post this! hah

edit: "Drummer at"  Nice job, Post.  I don't know why people complain of lowering editorial standards.

'Drummer at' sounds kind of like Facebook phrasing. 'Comptroller at Consolidated Cardboard'. Somebody got lazy with the cut-n-paste.

Are there any links to his TV appearances? I can find loads of mentions in news stories, but he was on CNN apparently.

EDIT: Terre T  just linked to this on the CBC playlist.

Good for JW- sticking up for the working man. Anybody who has ever worked a service related job knows how obnoxious and entitled some customers can be. You just know some slob took the delay as an opportunity to abuse the flight attendants.
