This Oregonian box is located just down the street from our office:

On a scale of 1-10 (ten being most important), how “important” is this notice?

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)

  1. Considering that you are one of the O’s biggest competitors, I’d say this is VERY FUCKING IMPORTANT! You know what you must do.

  2. @tags: those stories are the best thing about the Oregonian! “Dog-gone It’s Hot!”

    Why can’t the Mercury print stories like that, something the whole family can enjoy?

  3. I’m with Frankie B and Guspasho. People have gotten really lazy about the definition of that term. There’s nothing passive aggressive about this note. Discontinuing service at the box without a notice would be a better example of passive aggressiveness.
