Glaring Omissions: We're Not Going to Make a Joe Franklin Rape Joke
Glaring Omissions reproduces tips received from readers in the last week that weren't covered on Gawker, either by accident (rarely) or design (almost always).
- "I AM NOT A SUBSCRIBER TO YOUR SERVICE BUT YOUR IMAGES ARE INFILTRATING MY PC DESKTOP. I DO NOT WANT TO STARE AT PICTURES OF ROSIE O'DONNELL OR ANY OTHERS.
THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED IMMEDIATELY OR WE WILL HAVE A PROBLEM.
JOE FRANKLIN" - "don't laugh ;) — hi there. in this post, from where did you guys grab that tights image? i'm always in search of nice, low-waisted opaque (or otherwise) tights and hosiery. tx, in advance!"
- "Did you have to include the intern's name in the memo to Julia? It said he is gay and his father doesn't know but is a firefighter in Teaneck. I'd hate to see his Dad find out from this site that his son is gay!!!"
- "Ok, so tomorrow is supposed to be cold. Frigid even. But what I wanna know is whether it's so cold, the Naked Cowboy actually takes a day off. Now THAT would be cold. Worth sending one of your interns to Times Square tomorrow to find out? Lord knows I'm not going out there. Speaking of the Naked Cowboy, did you know he was immortalized on the animation board at the new M&M store? The Blue one struts his stuff as the Naked M&M in one clip. Pretty brilliant in that "you know you've made it when" kinda way..."
- "your blurb about sex with jews— i wrote to one of you editor folks once before, but, of course, you didn't respond back so i'll try again, because you've done the same thing again. WHY DO YOU INSIST ON REFERRING TO JEWISH PEOPLE AS "HEEBS"?. I told you once before THAT'S NOT EXACTLY A FLATTERING TERM!!! no, it's not as bad as KIKE, but nonetheless, even in having fun, i wish you people would use a little common sense rather than acting commonplace. afterall, what WOULD jesus do? i'm mean, you're an editor....so edit!!! use your mind rather than acting at someone else's expense. i want to continue looking at your website, but i'll stop if you continue in this style. (oh, and i heard that just now...you know...what you mumbled under your breathe: "big deal, the liitle heeb is going to pack up his tent and leave town...we're scared!!")"
- "You fucking sperm-suckers. First of all you're like, 550 years behind the times on Quelques Fleurs. Second of all, what in the world does perfume have to do with Manhattan, Media or Gossip? Can you just stick to your stupid hipsterisms and not spill our rich girl secrets, please? Now every greasy-haired, kohl-lined, Brooklyn-ite twat will be wearing my scent. IT'S NOT FOR YOU. You people already ruined Lilly, now this? Thanks. Assholes."
- "Contact inquiry— Do you have any hook-ups over at Vogue? I am looking to email my resume to someone in PR. Your help would be greatly appreciate."
- "THE FOLLOWING I WANT TO READ ABOUT:
Kate Middleton — Princes William's intended.
Courtney Love
Nicole Richie
EMILE HIRSCH
Emile and Kate rank tops. The rest follow ... I am fed up with seeing the same old, same old Celebs covered, you know? Britney, Brangelina, Jen Aniston, Paris, Jessica Simpson ... YAWN! They are tiresome." - Earlier: Glaring Omissions: Jared Kushner, Media Mogul
