About the Laid Off Loser
What's with the name, Loser?
Okay, deep down I know I'm not a loser — nor is anyone else who loses their job. But getting laid off, even if it was based on tenure and the economy has gone all Titanic on us, well, it's hard not to feel like getting cut from the JV baseball team all over again. Plus I'm horny for alliteration. And I thought it was funny, especially after Googling "Laid Off Loser" and a link came up that had something to do with "a shirt covered in Cheetos." It might come to that.

The music criticism on this site is illuminating and informative, and the playlists couldn't be more entertaining. I know I'm learning a lot. (Perhaps you had to be laid off so that this blog could exist?) Keep up the inspiring work!
ReplyDeleteThank you kind stranger masquerading as R. Christgau (nice choice of a pseudonym, by the way). I'm having fun with it and it's keeping my writing from getting stale. Cheers!
