In "Exclusive Exclusivity -- Non-American non-Royals need not apply."

*lights Molotov*

In "Patronising American tries to tell the Brits they drink too much."

"Let's get the facts, facts, shall we?" America, are we going to let ourselves be outdrank by a buncha Commies? It's time for the Joe Twelve-Packs to stand up and defend our country.

Doin' what I can to raise the mean

In "I'm Feeling Like"

"News flash: People who think and vote differently from you are not insane." I didn't say all people who vote Republican are insane. I said yellow-dog Republicans are insane, an objectively true statement.

" But there are black people (admittedly, a lower number than than women) who are Republicans. They share those viewpoints. I guess they figure that the Democrats have done great things for blacks through the years, but they either feel the Democrats have not done anything lately or are not helping." bernockle, if you read the links I posted, you'll kinda see that yellow-dog black Republicans are like any other yellow-dog Republicans: They're just completely removed from reality. Also, Democrats have a lock on the black vote for the foreseeable future, because black people are cooler than white people.

In "5 Reasons Why "The Customer Is Always Right" Is Wrong"

While the piece itself is heavy-handed, #2 is ridiculously OTM, and, to my mind, the #1 problem with customer service, both for the customers and for the workers. An air of entitlement makes you a tool, no matter which side of the 800 number you're on. It should be about problem-solving.

In "Curious George: Visual Design Rules?"

Thank you for that, kirkaracha. The original is classic. Design is like anything else. How good you are at it depends on how much you've studied and practiced. It's not like everything else in that everyone thinks they can do it. (ie "You should make it bigger and center it.)
