I’d like to send you hate mail for future dramatic reading, but I’ve nothing to rant passionately about.

Yeah, Miss Manners is more the quiet psychopath type.

One thing I notice about these hate mails is they start out seeming reasonable — the writer begins with a measured tone. But as they go on and on, the opinions expressed get whackier, and the pent-up anger bursts forth, and the opinions become unreasonable.

(This example’s not so bad — the writer comes across as prissy, but the hate mail lacks the foaming lunacy of several of the others. The drunken Irishman’s hate mail is my fave so far. It gets a 9.0; this one is maybe a 5.5.)

You don’t sound at all like my idea of Miss Manners – but the email was obnoxious, in a ridiculous way (or vice versa) and deserved the send-up.

ya know, these posts remind me of Lenny Bruce when he would read court transcripts during his stand-up act.

School marm became more of petulant school girl towards the end there…
