RE: “The Mercury Staff’s Wish List of Holiday Gifts!” [Feature, Nov 23], in which Music Editor Ciara Dolan asked readers to buy her a chef hat signed by her favorite celebrity chef, Guy Fieri!

Ugh! Guy Fieri is an irritating douchebag. He and Donald Trump are everything that’s wrong with America. Stop watching television; read a book.

This is not about music,

Isaac Hudson

CIARA DOLAN RESPONDS! Because you dared to (1) tell me, an ADULT WOMAN, what to do, and (2) imply that my interests should be limited to music, I will not address your WRONG OPINION.

~~Never Talk to Me or My Son Ever Again,~~

~~Buy Me the Damn Hat,~~

I Agree That Trump Sucks,

Ciara Dolan

P.S. No one tells me to stop watching TV.
