Ah yes, civility! What a noble aspiration. And what better place to find numerous splendid examples than the Ridgewood Blog, where:
– the current mayor is called a “total moron;”
– the current deputy mayor is called a “moron,” “asshole lawyer,” and “jackass”
– three of the current council members are called “creeps” and “bums;”
– the current village manager is called an “idiot,” “village idiot,” snake,” “complete fool,” and “bitch;”
– and the VM’s staff are called a “bunch of shitheads;”
– a resident, Jim Griffith, is called a “senile pot-bellied old man who [anonymous commenter] suspects wears a diaper;
– and another resident, Rurik Halaby, is called an “idiot;”
– And, in the mature, let’s-make-fun-of-someone’s-name category –
“Ron SLIME-oncini” (Simoncini);
“Rurik Halabooby” (Rurik Halaby); and
“Roberta Shut-up feld” (Roberta Sonenfeld)
So just keep that civility coming, anonymi. You’re setting a fine example for your children.
