Lol what? He's not Elroy ****ing Jetson. I think he knows exactly what a newspaper is and what it does.

You sound like one of those old farts that thinks newspapers still matter in some important way.

Shit, if newspapers still mattered, the Chiefs organization should fabricate such letters and send them in regularly to keep Mahomes pissed and hungry. Bulletin board material and all that antique shit.

They do matter.

All you have to do is sign up for a $25 subscription and they'll tell you why, too.

A lot of people want Mahomes to fail the same way I wanted Brady/Manning to fail.

I'm saying a newspaper is a ****ing newspaper.

You're acting like Mahomes thinks a newspaper is a garbage disposal or some shit.

He has a different concept of what a newspaper is? WTF does that even mean? He's 27 ****ing years old. He's seen a newspaper before. Just because he's young doesn't make him a complete reerun.

He's a smart guy. I'll bet he also knows what a lawnmower is. And he probably thinks it cuts grass and shouldn't be used to wash the dishes!

Now ain't that a fun fact. I knew about Hemingway, and about how the style guide at the Star was the "best advice about writing I ever saw in my whole career", but I didn't know about Walt Disney.

My how the mighty have fallen.

Hemingway on the Star, over 100 years ago:
Quote:

Ernest Hemingway famously said, of The Star Copy Style, “Those were the best rules I ever learned for the business of writing. I've never forgotten them. No man with any talent, who feels and writes truly about the thing he is trying to say, can fail to write well if he abides with them.”

I'm saying only that a newspaper is not to a 27 year old what it is to people of older generations.

TikTok is not to me what it is to my 20 year old.

It has nothing to do at all with his intelligence nor with landscaping tools and appliances.
