Hilarious. I may have to try one of these myself.

Funny, but let's face it--punking the Pantload is where sayings like "shooting fish in a barrel" come from.

Now they all look like fakes.

Yeah, "your book is the reason I'm drinking again"? It can't be too hard.

Jonah Goldberg mockery is moments away from becoming a Lance Ito or Joey Buttafuoco joke.

If you've got to be a funny man I would prefer practical jokes to too deep ironic parody zomg 10,000 spoons.

Look at this letter
The White Man of LF & The Race Card
If Michael Bérubé didn't write that I'll eat my fedora.

I don't think the "AA is fascist" letter is fake. Whenever *I* read Jonah Goldberg, I always think about drinking again, too. He has that effect on people.

Jonah Goldberg, Punk'd

Punk'd seems a rather juvenile characterization. A far more serious depiction would be: PWNED!

Do you think he'll figure it out when he gets a gushing e-mail from an address clearly identifiable as belonging to Matthew Yglesias? Me neither.

"Punk'd seems a rather juvenile characterization."

Well, Matt is just four years out of college. I'm not sure he's bottle-fed yet.
