Slog - Comments on Metagobble http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/11/metagobble Why are Google's holiday logos always so terrible? Where'd they disinter the third-rate children's book illustrator who draws them, and why? (All of these are an improvement, especially the Mondrian one.) Today's iteration is only redeemed by the fact that the turkeys are clearly cannibals: suicide food–plus. Time to eat! Cheers to the self-devouring turkey....

* Why are Stranger writers so fucking petty?

* Don't they have anything else to do with their time? (Improve their writing, perhaps?)

* Does anyone actually care about the opinions of a disaffected, hipster employee of a backwater daily newspaper?

It looks like they're eating from a plate of vegetables. Would they be cannibals if they ate tofurkey?
