The Hatemonger’s Quarterly

Filed under: Blogging Matters,Humor — Patterico @ 6:45 am



Via a “Heh” from See Dubya, I stumbled across a blog I hadn’t seen before: The Hatemonger’s Quarterly.

See Dubya’s link takes you to an amusing post about the blogger’s reaction to a stupid piece of hate mail. But if you browse through this guy’s blog, you’ll see a lot of entertaining writing. He uses a lot of “extra” quotation marks, which is done in an “ironic” sort of way that I find curiously “diverting.”

Sure, he takes about 15,000 words to clear his throat, as in this post which, summed up, says: “Hey, lookit! Turns out Chris Wallace is a Demmycrat!” But it’s an entertaining 15,000 words (okay, maybe not quite that many).

So today’s blog recommendation is The Hatemonger’s Quarterly. Good stuff.

  1. “Martinez is hardly one to complain about others writing on inane topics. While Martinez occasionally writes about lofty subjects like war and America’s unpopularity, he has done his share of INSIPID COLUMNS [all emphasis mine-L] — like the one about buying a puppy, and a particularly mundane piece about injuring his shin.”

    Let us all bask in the extremely pertinent pharmaceutical enlightenment provided by The Hatemonger’s Quarterly.

    Of course, individuals across the political spectrum LOOOOVE Sudafed… though not for its qualities as a “powerful nasal decongestant”.

    Good stuff, indeed.

  2. There are some real gems at HQ occasionally, like:
    After all, nothing demonstrates your independent cast of mind quite like advertising the fact that you have the exact same political beliefs as all your friends.

  3. THQ is a great blog in its own right.

    It’s even greater for having put me in a list of “darn good” blogs (“outside the beaten path”). Is that enough quotation marks?

    Flattery will get you everywhere.
