Remember Christian Schneider?

Many of you recall Christian Schneider's name because Charlie Sykes was in love with him.

Ace is not.

Remarking after reading a Schneider piece in the National War! War! War! Review:

...National Review is a group of deeply unserious children, the bulk of whom have literally never held actual jobs, and who have always "worked" (and I do use that term advisedly) in sinecures paid for by corporate donors to act as paid advertising copyeditors for those corporate interests. But these braying, caterwauling, fit-throwing children, such as the deeply "serious" shit-flinger Kevin D. Williamson, sure do like posturing as "serious" minded people and accusing their opponents of lacking "seriousness."...

Schneider always was a bit juvenile and never did hold a real job.

And I'm not surprised that you don't recall the guy. 

Ace has more to say!

...this group of Upper-Middle-Class Twit of the Year candidates likes wearing bow-ties and explaining why they support military intervention everywhere but their own personal traits make them too important to be deployed in actual military service. And also, too important to actually work for a living in their dad's furniture store or pursue that dentistry degree like mom wanted, so they're going to pursue their dream of Starting a Magazine about the Intersection of Fashion and Ideas for a while until "they have things figured out."...

Good luck with that magazine thing.  Deep recessions can seriously change subscription numbers.
