In the New Yorker...
Front-Ranger:
That was so funny, I'm surprised it wasn't snapped up! It starts out in a straightforward expositional manner and keeps getting funnier as you go further into the future. I didn't find it too complicated at all. Sort of on the theme of 'The Blind men and the Elephant'. I think you should keep trying! TNY obviously needs some better material.
Front-Ranger:
I came up with an idea for an S & M. Most of the emails in my PROMOTIONS tab are titled: "confirmation of your purchase" even though I haven't purchased anything from the company. I know this is just a scam. So I envision a string of emails confirming my purchase, reservation, or subscription to ever more wild and growing items such as cruises, Wild-Animal-of-the-Month plans, and collector's items...maybe Brokeback memorabilia!

I figured you all would pick up that Shouts & Murmurs was not the S&M I was referring to. ;D

Oops!! :laugh: :laugh:
I thought it was kind of a weird way to put it -- as if you'd been conducting public polls about opinions of a New Yorker feature. NOW it makes sense.
