"The Hallway" ("The Corner" Parody)Man, I've been wanting to do a Corner parody for-ev-er. Always was on the "things to do" pile, though; never made it to the "doing it now" pile. Wuzza Dem beats me to the punch with his own parody. BREAKFAST [Wuzz] Good stuff. Read the whole thing. Points subtracted for no mentions of Marmite, crunchy-cons, Star Trek, "immanentizing the Eschaton," or Cosmo the Wonder Dog.* * Corrected: I said "immanualizing the Eschatology," whatever the hell that could mean (if anything). Thanks to my commenters for riding me hard like Vinny Falcone. posted by Ace at 08:55 PM
CommentsAce, Thanks for the link, and for the constructive criticism. Bill from InDC also dinged me for not having anyone refer to themselves in the third person. Posted by: John from WuzzaDem on January 12, 2005 09:10 PM
That was nicely done. I especially liked the response to " Can you link to my blog?" Though I must admit the Corner has gotten better about that as time goes on. Posted by: Kathy K on January 12, 2005 09:10 PM
Dear Ace,
yours truly, Posted by: amish on January 12, 2005 09:54 PM
Hah... that's a good premise. I might publish some of my hate-mail, which deems me a sell-out to the white race. Posted by: ace on January 12, 2005 10:09 PM
WAS THIS SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY? I DON'T GET IT. Posted by: Dave at Garfield Ridge on January 12, 2005 11:11 PM
NO Posted by: John from WuzzaDem on January 12, 2005 11:26 PM
John, It really wasn't criticism, constructive or otherwise. It was 1, Joshing, and 2, how I would have done it, and 3, expressing my own annoyances at the sometimes too-cute banter in the corner. You went in a different way, where you weren't parodizing the Corner per se, but having your own "corner" made up, it seems, of various incarnations of yourself. So it's just a different take. Good stuff. No criticism intended at all. Keep it up. Posted by: ace on January 12, 2005 11:29 PM
i liked it. Posted by: amish on January 12, 2005 11:33 PM
Pretty good. Needed Cosmo, math problems, and baseball. I liked it, though. Posted by: Blackjack on January 12, 2005 11:59 PM
This is supposed to be a parody of The Corner? Huh? Posted by: CraigC on January 13, 2005 01:27 AM
Ace, if you're talking about "immanualizing the eschatology", as a theological/political issue, you probably mean "immanentizing the Eschaton". And yes, I know I need to get out more. Posted by: SparcVark on January 13, 2005 09:15 AM
Tim Cavanaugh at Reason did a parody of the Corner shortly after it came out. A bit more brutal. Posted by: JohnL on January 13, 2005 10:28 AM
Needs some arcane math posts, and maybe a couch reference....it's well done, though Posted by: johnnyh on January 13, 2005 11:04 AM
Ace, I know you were kidding, so was I. No offense taken. You are correct, this is not really a parody of The Corner, so much as using that format for a piece. The "Corner Parody" was just a line I was using in my link-whoring efforts - always use descriptive (and, if necessary, deceptive) subject lines to grab the reader's attention! Thanks again. Dave - I lied, the answer is yes. CraigC - see above. Kathy, Blackjack, Amish, and Johnny - Thanks! Doug - I don't care if you think my site's a piece of crap...oh, sorry, that comment's for a different blog. Posted by: John from WuzzaDem on January 13, 2005 12:20 PM
SparcVark is right, it is "immanentizing the Eschaton." There's a lot of loose shit going on here.
Posted by: Alex on January 13, 2005 12:51 PM
very well done! the only think missing is that JFW needs to "SIGH" every other post in exasperation at the fact that those damn liberals are still running around uncaged and actually not supporting W. Also, needs to "god bless" people a lot a la Tiny Tim. Posted by: on January 13, 2005 01:59 PM
Ace and John, LOL! I think "The Hallway" is hilarious! RE: RE: LAZY READERS [John] Right. Sorry, my bad. Just sent this e-mail to him: Sorry, my bad. Perfect. Posted by: MeTooThen on January 13, 2005 04:16 PM
I thought "immanualizing the Eschatology" was, like, a joke. A deliberate malapropism. Well, you could always say "I meant to do that!" Posted by: Pixy Misa on January 14, 2005 01:21 AM

Brown killer takes the coward's way out. Naturally.
Still not identified, for some reason. Per Fox 25 Boston, the killer was a non-citizen permanent legal resident It continues to be strange that the police are so protective of his identity.

Megyn Kelly finally calls out Candace Owens
Whoops, I meant she bravely attacks Sydney Sweeney for "bending the knee." (Sweeney put out a very empty PR statement saying "I'm against hate." Whoop-de-doo.) Megyn Kelly claims she doesn't want to call people out on the right when asked about Candace Owens but then has no compunctions at all about calling people out on the right. As long as they're not Candace Owens. Strangely, she seems blind and deaf to anything Candace Owens says. That's why this woman calls her "Megyn Keller." She's now asking her pay-pigs in Pakistan how they think she should address the Candace Owens situation, and if they think this is really all about Israel and the Jews.

More revelations about the least-sexy broken relationship in media history
I'd wanted to review Parts 2, 3, and 4 of Ryan Lizza's revenge posts about Olivia Nuzzi, but they're all paywalled. I thought about briefly subscribing to get at them, but then I read this in Part 2: Remember the bamboo from Part 1? Do I ever! It's all I remember! Well, bamboo is actually a type of grass, and underground, it's all connected in a sprawling network, just like the parts of this story I never wanted to tell. I wish I hadn't been put in this position, that I didn't have to write about any of this, that I didn't have to subject myself or my loved ones to embarrassment and further loss of privacy. We're back to the fucking bamboo. Guys, I don't think I can pay for bamboo ruminations. I think he added that because he was embarrassed about all the bamboo imagery from Part 1. He's justifying his twin obsessions: His ex, and bamboo. Which is not a tree but a kind of grass, he'll have you know.
Olivia Nuzzi's crappy Sex and the City fanfic book isn't selling, says CNN (and CNN seems pretty pleased about that)
On Tuesday, the book arrived in stores. At lunchtime, in the Midtown Manhattan nexus of media and publishing, interest in Nuzzi's story seemed more muted. The Barnes and Noble on Fifth Avenue had seven copies tucked into a "New & Notable" rack next to the escalator, below Malala Yousafzai's "Finding My Way." Not many had sold so far, a store employee said. She trashes Ryan Lizza for his "Revenge Porn" here. Emily Jashinsky says that when the Bulwark's gay grifter Tim Miller asked why she didn't report on the (alleged) use of ketamine by RFKJr., she broke down in tears and asked to end the interview.

Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey vows to Somali criminals that he will not cooperate with ICE, then begins speaking in Somali
Gee I wonder why Walz allowed Somali pirates to steal 1 billion in American dollars... could it possibly be that criminal illegal aliens are voting in elections and the Democrats know it and play to that illegal constituency?
Incumbent Senator John Cornyn (RINO - TX) betrayed his party and his country by voting in favor Biden's Afghan resettlement bill in 2021. Cornyn voted to bring in the Afghan who shot two National Guard soldiers on US soil. A vote for Cornyn is an endorsement of importing unvetted, radicalized murderers. [Buck]
