Tribune Gets Snarky

The Tribune's article on the upcoming TBA mentions UrbanHonking with a satisfying bit of snark.

"Yes, of course, there's an urbanhonking blog..."
(Italics only present in the print edition).

Heh, I hope this doesn't mean we're played out. :)

Yeah, I see it as a huge compliment! Like we're woven into the fabric of Portland. :)

my feeling was less snark, more "but of course..."

Starting with the word "Yes" implies that the reader is asking if there is an UrbanHonking blog, like it has become an expected element. The italics on the *course* emphasize the word in a somewhat negative way.

I don't think the writer really feels negatively about UrbanHonking blogs. And with the new "Blog The Shit Out Of" blog, we have been all over the place. And of course I'm excited that we even get a mention when a TBA article comes out.
