Which helping hands co-wrote The Maureen Dowd Collective's insane, 2003-era rant against Anna Wintour this weekend? We're thinking the high dudgeon screaminess sounds like Alessandra Stanley and Frank Bruni cracking themselves up after a few drinks. (Though Bruni is probably too busy to pitch in on her column right now, what with his book tour.) Plus we're assuming her assistant did the reporting. ("I dunno, call Andre Leon Talley and whoever else one calls usually. Surprise me! Then quote... um, Keith Kelly-he's still alive, right?") But you know: could have been anyone (amped up on a few hits of nitrous) really. Anyway, someone give this funny lady and her funny friends a blog!

I can't take the sound of crickets any longer! But I gotta say, Choire? This new mandate that comments contribute something of substance to a post doesn't really work with my style.* Is there any wiggle room up in here?
* Did not write Maureen Dowd's Sunday column
"high dudgeon screaminess". can we please have a round of applause?
I think someone who works for a search-optimization firm wrote that. Let's have a look:
Wintour,
Prada,
Vogue,
Monkey Bar,
Museum of Modern Art,
Meryl Streep, (Did someone cut Stanely Tucci?)
Armani,
Monolo,
The Huffington Post,
"District 9" (WTF?),
Simon Cowell,
David Letterman,
Dominatrix,
Starbucks,
Iraq,
"Hurt Locker,"
"Mick Jagger-Keith Richards relationship"
Titanic,
and, my favorite:
"bondage gladiator heels"
Paul of Tarsus suggests, "Hey, dial the misogyny back a notch."
