Much as I hate to say it, but if Maureen Dowd sneers at you, you can’t be all that bad. Not that I want him to win the Presidency, mind you, but I’m with Pejman when he says that this sounds like a petty attempt at revenge by a journalist not given access.
Of course, I may just be seething at the headline. “Dungeons and Dragons”, forsooth.
So, this is Dowd’s fit of indignation?
“Okay, Mo, you need to make an 11 on the saving roll,” says the Dudgeon Master.
*that lovely anticipatory sound of big dice hitting the tabletop*
“Oh, I’m sorry! You didn’t make it. So nobody cares.”
I’d just like to take this opportunity to point out that, back in my D&D days, I roled a d30 only three times ever. In fact, have never roled one since. Three separate d30s, in different parts of the country, in different months (maybe even years).
Got a 30 each time.
And that’s why I don’t intend to ever roll one again…
I’m surprised Dowd even got five minutes on the phone from Dean. The woman should be over as a columnist — and yet she persists in hanging on.
All she got was a promise of 5 minutes. The fact that the article is about her not getting any minutes, and not having anything of substance to say about that or anything else in its stead, makes me wonder why I’d want to read any more of her stuff.
Reading previous posts, but, admittedly, not having read any of her columns before, I’d gotten the impression that her opinions aren’t valued because she spewed some flavor of bile, vitriol, or nonsense that didn’t appreciably contribute to meaningful discourse. But if this is the sort of feckless dreck that’s nominal, I can see why her work isn’t appreciated much. Is my (shallow) impression correct?
