WE ARE WATCHING

NJO: On this day, James or someone on Team James made this powerful two-line all-caps foray into the world of LJ drama...

death, taxes, and idiots like you



to james and the rest of the centurion staff:

thanks for proving my point. you can't even ask me to print my own words? COWARDS. i DID write letters to james, so don't even try that as an argument. you are left with nothing. i write this in my blog because it seems it's unnecessary to submit my thoughts directly to you; you'll go looking for them here anyway, even after i've given them to you. you're ridiculous and infantile, and if, as it seems, you can't find any real story and must either wait for it to come to you or create it for yourself, go ahead. print that. and sign it with my name. i stand by it.

but please, if you discover any human decency among your editors' tools, let me know.

arielle.

p.s. if you're going to complain about spelling errors in blog entries, of which i caught none in any entry you printed, you might consider spelling "elitist" correctly before you pin the title onto me.





outsiders: part of my journal entry (and a very silly picture of me) has been published in this month's Rutgers Centurion (click here for a PDF file). i'm on pages 3 and 13. page 13 is a portion of my journal entry - they call me a coward for not writing my thoughts in a letter to the editor. page 3 is just the first of my THREE letters to the editor-in-chief, which i wrote before i published my blog entry. plus, the title of the whole schtick, "profiles in cowardice," plays off of comments i made in the second of my letters. whoops! a little fact-checking error, there, boys! better luck next time.

centurion:

not all conversation has to be TO YOU. that's the thing about free speech. it's not restricted to any one direction.

Re: WE ARE WATCHING

I'm interested in knowing exactly how Arielle was behaving "cowardly" when she had already written to the editors of the Centurion.

A blog is a place for your personal thoughts - your "if you don't like us, say it to our face" shtick is really tired because most people do use their blogs to vent and express their personal thoughts and opinions, and that's exactly what Arielle did.

It makes YOU look hypersensitive to call Arielle a "coward" - are you too devoid of your own fresh, positive political material that you have to make fun of others simply for not agreeing with your political statements? It also makes you look ignorant, as Arielle had previously written you a letter that is PUBLISHED IN THAT VERY ISSUE!

So go ahead, call Arielle a "coward". Just realize that your magazine will get more respect if you graduate the sixth grade first.

This is another situation where the term "cock monkey" applies.
