Phillies Beat Writer Knows His Special Purpose

It has been said by no one, so far as I know, that a man who knows his strengths will do great things, but a man who knows his limitations is probably way less of a douche.

In any case, having read zero of the other words he’s ever written in his life, I can say with some authority that, despite the other (likely many) flaws he possesses, the Daily News’s David Murphy — author of the tweet you see above — knows his place in this world.

And, when you think about it, it’s not the worst place to have. Imagine asking merely affluent or (gasp) middle-class people about their groins! “The horror! The horror!” indeed, Mr. Kurtz.





Carson Cistulli has published a book of aphorisms called Spirited Ejaculations of a New Enthusiast.
