Man, it's not that people "didn't appreciate" what you said in the last article. It's that you used a metaphor that had to do with Africa and predatory animals that was offensive and racist. I think this was a result of stupidity and ignorance on your part rather than racism, but this still doesn't change the fact that it happened. This article isn't an apology so much as it is defense for what you wrote. You were wrong. You should have apologized, not written about the lessons you learned from this incident. How ridiculous. You're lucky you weren't fired.

I don't know if you're a freshman or not, but I think there should be a concrete rule that freshman are not allowed to write opinion columns, based on the fact that a freshman's opinion is ridiculous about 90 percent of the time.
Also, you wrote a column entitled "In defense of books" a few weeks or so ago. I think that's evidence enough that you don't need to be expressing your opinions publicly.

What an awful list. Great dude, we get it, you know a lot of bands that aren't very popular. If this was a true "best of" list, though, there would be many more mainstream acts included (Lady Gaga, for instance). Also, you're out of your mind if you really think "Float On" was the best Modest Mouse single of the decade.

Hey dude, maybe your next column can be about why it's dangerous to talk to strangers.

Each and every one of you needs to get a life. God, you are all such losers.

Look, this shouldn't have happened in the first place. Anyone who could write an article like this guy's original and not realize how offensive it was does not need to be writing for a newspaper, period. Yeah, he might realize that he's wrong now, but that's only after everyone lost it upon the original's publication. But wait, everyone, he's "learned something" from the incident, so it's OK! That's beside the point. He might have gained perspective, but the incident still shows a tremendously clear picture of this writer's ignorance or stupidity (take your pick) -- two qualities which do not belong anywhere near a news outlet.
