Folksy and Charming . . .

. . . my ASS.

She's like your friend's mom when you were little, the one who didn't like it when you were over at their house and whom you always suspected talked shit about you to her kid. "That Schwartz boy is sort of dirty, isn't he? Can't his parents afford to buy him some nicer pants?"

Oh the loathing. I think that the subtext of all this "folksy and charming" bullshit is "sounds kind of like that nice Margie Gunderson, and even though I thought she sounded pretty dumb she ended up catching that murderer and good for her."

The next time I hear the word "nucular" come from someone who has or might someday have access to the big shiny candy like NUKE button... I'm gonna leap through my damned HDTV and strangle the fucker.

It's just all those vowels, they're terribly confusing! Growing up with the name Schwartz I have grown up with a deep-seated distrust for them and their roundish sounds.

Man, wouldn't it be awesome if Frances McDormand filmed an anti-Palin ad in character as Marge Gunderson? "I'm not sure I agree with you 100% on your geography, there, Sarah."

That'd be beautiful.

I have to confess that her almost-Minnesotan accent is one of the things I dislike most about her. Familiarity and contempt, or something.
