Even though The Coast is full of biased crap issues mainly of interest to the staff aka best friends for life, I still pick it up to read the bitches. This week, you cut off a bitch. I mean, if you are going to hire your friends, please ensure their editing and layout skills are sufficient. You are making it hard to give a shit about your paper.

er, I didn’t know anyone at all at The Coast when I got hired, and even for a good while after; our relationship was entirely an email correspondence.My colleagues are fine people, but we have our own personal lives; there’s very little overlap.This week, I put the bitches in the paper (that responsibility is moving away from me, yea!). I’ve looked again, and I don’t see anything cut off, that wasn’t shortened by design. You guys ramble a lot here; the short, pithy bitches have a better shot at getting in the paper, and if there are interesting longer bitches, I cut them down a bit, trying not to change the gist of them. Just fyi. If you really want to get in the paper, keep it short.
O glorious WebNazi! Say it ain’t so! Are you really leaving us to our fake name sockpuppetry? What will we do without your intermittent pithy smackdowns? How will we know when we have gone too far? How will we know where to Bitch At Each Other? I can’t bear it…
I noticed the same thing whe I read the Coast today.
Hey Miranda– I’m around for a while, alas. Andy, who pops in every now and then, will ultimately take over here, but he’s working on that new web site at the moment. btw, nobody knew him, either, when he got hired. Nice guy. He’ll no doubt be annoying and annoyed as well.
what the fuck is this? this is a bitch, not a coast reunion. point proven
What point would that be, allycat? I don’t work for the Coast. I’m just a humble sockpuppet.
