Erika, amazing. Are you sure you didn't get help from Bobo on that one?
Also, ugh.
New to my hate pit: Simon Rich. I just heard him interviewed on The Sound of Young America, and even though he's going for the charming, nebbishy twerpy guy type beloved (one assumes) of most FOT, he reeks of privilege - seriously, anyone who wants to give Laurie a hard time but likes this creep can join him in my hate pit. He starts off as just another comedy (SNL) writer with a book, but over the course of the interview it's all revealed - son of NY Times cultural critic Frank Rich, Harvard grad and former Lampoon staffer. And his work is about as funny as Maureen Dowd when her meds are working. Oh, the English phrasebook tells you how to deal with terrorists and then turns into an episode of 24 or something, ha ha. Couldn't you have reached a little further back on the shelf for a joke? Or is that something you usually have your servants do?
Anyway, I hope he's enjoying it down there.
