DENBY ON THE OFFENSIVE: Hey, England! Don’t let the Bearded Sack of Lies pull a fast one on you, too, with this secret “U.K. release” of the tragic fapping pamphlet Snark. We would never make a joke about Ted Kennedy or Chelsea Clinton! [Guardian]

Hey Denby, um, good luck with going to jolly old England. It’s not the UK is snarky and is cruel and nasty to politicians/public figures/journalists or anything.

He had to get out of the country because he was so ashamed of all those nasty things he said about Baby K!

Everything is a joke to Wonkett.

After publishing his entire pamphlet in the Guardian, he has the effrontery to expect people to purchase it from the Guardian bookstore?

I just learned the hard way not to drink (anything) in front of the computer while reading wonkette.

I made it to principle five! On the downside, it seems I’m smoking again and appear to have killed my neighbors.

How convenient he leaves the country just when investigators are figuring out who’s responsible for the California Holocaust.

Tundra Grifter August 31, 2009 at 11:10 am

He says “Snark” like it’s a bad thing…

Snark is as Snark does.

Snark happens.

Snarkalicious.

Or, bitten by a great white Snark.

SNARK GAS! The smeller’s the feller, Mr. Denby. Quit picking on Wonkette, you obsessive old creep.

geminisunmars August 31, 2009 at 11:12 am

Finally! An instruction manual (or pamphlet) on how to snark. Thank you Denby.

Did Intern Juli get paged, and have to run off and deliver another baby?

El Pinche August 31, 2009 at 11:18 am

It ain’t easy being the laughing stock of Twitter and the internet.

[re=398632]Marlowe[/re]: You’re a heretic. AMC taught us to always drink something in front of the computer while reading Wonkette and Ken hasn’t repudiate that yet.

Also, I have a weird need to see Denby in the Australian parliament. Soon. Possibly being beaten by wombats and ‘roos.

“The knowingness that racial snark appeals to is usually concealed backstairs somewhere in the commodious house of unconscious fear, intolerance and distrust.”

The Guardian is fuckin’ poetic, dood.

saridout August 31, 2009 at 11:21 am

“Commodious house of unconscious fear”? This guy needs to get a hobby.

Min August 31, 2009 at 11:29 am

DENBY IS OFFENSIVE:

Fixed that for ya. What a humorless tool. Remind me never to invite him to a party.

Come here a minute August 31, 2009 at 11:47 am

From here on all Jameson jokes must be directed at Joseph P. Kennedy II.

Obamaton August 31, 2009 at 11:48 am

We are the makers of snark, Denby, and the liberty that follows our places stops the mouth of all fault-finds.

Neilist August 31, 2009 at 11:59 am

Speaking (ideally, for the last time) about “fellatio on fornicators, cohabitators, working mothers and other types of fallen women . . . .”

WIDTAP August 31, 2009 at 12:04 pm

Jeez, I didn’t realized there were so many rules to this snark thing.

Pop Socket August 31, 2009 at 12:15 pm

Ten pounds for piece of crap? British currency is falling faster than I realized.

snideinplainsight August 31, 2009 at 12:32 pm

I would like to give dear Mr. Denby ten pounds, too! Come a little closer Mr. Denby…closer…closer…

peggynoonansrickshaw August 31, 2009 at 1:07 pm

They just reviewed it in the Financial Times Weekend edition, completely ruining that weekend.

imissopus August 31, 2009 at 1:24 pm

Denby, you use your tongue purtier than a ten-dollar whore.

One Yield Regular August 31, 2009 at 2:00 pm

I wish we’d had this article sooner, as it’s abundantly clear that the “invasion of snark into all modern discourse” already reached its apotheosis during this weekend’s outrageous snark-fest concerning Charlie “Baby K.” Smith. Clearly this menace has rendered its users completely incapable of even the merest expression of human warmth and generous sentiment.

No Country for Old Men: An Ode

Here’s to that priggish dolt Denby!
Ne’re more insufferable than when he
Squeaks, “Snark ain’t legit,
On it will I shit.
Oh, prithee! Great Books, do defend me!

OverlySensitiveNegress September 1, 2009 at 1:47 am

Denby is an uppity cracker.
