    [Raunch] :: Readings :: Harper’s Magazine :: August 2011

    You guys, this book is bonkers. It’s berserk. Obviously not going to appear on this list—because it’s a proper name—is this wonderful euphemism for, uh, peeny wanger: “Dave angled out his Malcolm Gladwell.” Do take the second to consider Gladwell’s hair. 

    I’m really into fuckalope and cockitude. Prepare to hear them ALL THE TIME.
