Saturday roundup

Anne Applebaum on the art of insult.

Gail Collins asks WTF??

Thank you, Max Stier. At least someone's got our back.

Some of the entries for this week's Style Invitational are pretty funny.

Ah, adventures in house hunting; brings back memories. And goes to show that if this area did have a semblance of a buyer's market, it was pretty subtle.

This week's Where We Live section of the Post featured Old Town, and did not neglect to point out, several times, how dog-friendly it is... although the proliferation of doggy bakeries, in particular, was not mentioned.

What's odder:

(1) A friend told me that she was furious to learn that her (22 year-old) daughter had started a blog (and it's not even a mom blog);

(2) she showed me a blog, and there, in the middle of a page, a Che quote nonchalantly sat;

(3) Che popped up, a couple of times, elsewhere in the course of our (non-political) conversation, and I'm not the one who brought it up.
