The Gray Lady Makes Me Feel Alive
Writer Matthew Summers-Sparks goes on a date with the New York Times... and evidently the Times puts out.
More than before, the Gray Lady makes me feel alive, turned on, and, most importantly, informed. As the evening progresses, I pepper her with questions about dirty slang words I ve been curious about, but had never found adequately described in a newspaper or anywhere else.
She has no problem with snogging and teabagging. They suggest visual analogies, explains the Gray Lady. Think of a pair of camels passionately making out, and then one camel puts the other camel s testicles in its mouth. I could easily picture these things; in her genteel, analogy-packed manner, the Gray Lady was brilliant at using camels to describe tawdry terms.
