Slog - Comments on Letter of the Day http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/08/letter_of_the_day_62 Hi! I'm moving up to Seattle in a few weeks, and neglected to get a friend in the city to save a copy of the "Best of Seattle" issue. You surely did one, as mid-late summer seems to be when all weekly entertainment/liberal papers publish such things. A search yielded the best of The Stranger and the a "Best of SeaTac" issue, but neither is quite what I'm looking for. Can you provide the correct link? Jenni Here you go, Jenni....

Lindy West gives me hope for more hilarity.

I think something that would suit that type is over here.

Just sayin'.

It's not like you are immune to it (the fashion issue was a giant blow job to advertisers).

I loved the "Best of Nooksack," but there's just no way that came out in 1999. None. Not possible.

I really wanted to read about the Rad Dyke Plumber.

That The Stranger is in love with how clever it supposedly is, or was, before reusing jokes from 2002?

Ha ha ha

Why don't you do an issue that's truly Best Of. You won't, for the same reasons you mock here.

Newspapers are dying, even the free ones.

You had a cigarette in one hand and a Stranger in the other. You smelled like stinking cigarette smoke as you puffed away feeding your loser addiction. Your ear lobes were sagging with ear plugs that went out of style five years ago. And those tats? The colors have faded and they are starting to merge into an ugly blob. Didn't you ever notice what tats look like on older men? You thought those fuckers would forever be in style? Would you like to wear the same fucking shirt every day for the rest of your life? And that tat on your neck-it shouts LOSER to everyone who sees it. But being a loser is your thing right? That's why you read the Slog.

That's how i roll.
