“People walk around today calling everyone their best friend. The term doesn't have any real meaning anymore. Mere acquaintances are lavished with hugs and kisses upon a second or at most third meeting, birthday cards get passed around offices so everybody can scribble a snippet of sentimentality for a colleague they barely met, and everyone just loves everyone. As a result, when you tell somebody you love them today, it isn't much heard.”

“People forgo newspapers for the Internet, where instead of relying on credentialed journalists, they turn to these bloggers, sort of entry-level life-forms, that intellectually have yet to emerge from the primordial ooze.”
