Ha.

But seriously, there is a complaisant companion virtue to magnanimity which is being able to accept the same kind of gifts and compliments you give. Some people are really incapable of it. It's an unbalanced pattern of life.

There is a big difference between the Ohio River and a river in Ohio. Still an outrage that this grotesque benefit should be provided, but not the total insanity that the lede seems to suggest.

A graphic announcing the Jewish fantasy noir novella Hornytown Chutzpah. In the lower right stands a sheyd (demon) wearing a t-shirt that reads "Sucker 4 Sin" with a lollipop on it. In the upper left, a cartoon detective wearing a purple fedora holds a water balloon.

What act of creative chutzpah have you done today?
