Title: Writing Excuses Team Nazis?
Post by: sortitus on October 19, 2009, 01:34:40 AM
I used to enjoy listening to the writing podcast, Writing Excuses. Last week, my eyes wandered over to the "Contributors" panel, and my enjoyment was destroyed. I knew that the team was all Mormon. What I didn't know is that they were all supporters of Nazism! Are the two related? The more I search online, the more I think that all Mormons are Nazis!

I did an image search on Google for "Mormons", and all of my results have pictures of seemingly normal people. But all of the images are super-high contrast and every single man, woman, and child is sporting a toothbrush mustache!

What I'm trying to say is that my faith in the Writing Excuses team has been shaken. I trusted them. I listened to their clever advice and witty asides with a smile on my face, and my trust has been shaken!

Please, can someone explain why Howard has half of his face occluded by deep shadow, wears a snappy jacket, and shaves his head? Why do Dan's eyes gleam with maniacal fervor and his teeth shine with a supernatural sharpness? Why does Brandon... actually look quite good with that mustache? Why???

Those stashes looke a little too good, if you catch my drift. :P

*blinks several times*

Is that a miniature bow tie clipped onto Dan's upper lip?

Is that an earring on Brandon's left ear?

We'll have to ask them to know for sure.
