Why do you have to be so obnoxious all the time?

They are doing a great job under the circumstances. They're working nonstop, not playing XBox and eating cookies, or drinking. Spare them the attitude, ok?

Yeah. Leave ECB alone. That is a whack, no-shit-sherlock headline, and it's pretty funny that she pointed that out.

I surprised Erica posted on a Sunday. The Stranger doesn't pay her enough to work on weekends.

I've read it three different times this morning and laugh out loud each time. I guess I'm feeling a little punchy too. Thanks, ECB!
