Spoken to me while a piece was being edited: "I hate editors."

If the tone was playful, Charles. If it sent a chill up your spine, Goldy.

Goldy. There's simply no way that anyone meaningfully edits Charles' work.

Are there really editors at The Stranger? I would have never known.

It doesn't matter what the poll is, if Charles is an option, it's always Charles.

I hate Slog polls.

It's obviously Charles. Editors are the managers on the shop floor of creativity. They're traitors to their class as creative producers.

Goldy loves bureaucratic management types. That's what he's so into the electoral college. He would never hate an editor because he aspires to be a social manager and can't advocate against that interest.

OH SNAP!

goldy is way too coherent/cogent to really get that pissed; he fits right in like the sort of cool-ish older dad.

mudede was probably trying to write about guns or children again.

@ 7, you must have skipped over Goldy's Costco post - and a lot of others.

Way too to-the-point for Charles.
