Blake linked to this story in a previous comment thread, but I’m ashamed to say that I just didn’t muster the motivation to write a thorough post on it (or Dustin’s story, sorry to you both). So with that in mind, I’m glad to report that the incomparable Stephen Colbert has thoroughly ridiculed this nonsense in my stead. If I had to list my all time favorite “Word” segments thus far, this would be in the top ten, and is almost guaranteed to be a classic further down the road.
