Filed under: Wonkette, DC bloggers, Washington City Paper, LNS

You decide:

Back in November I mentioned that there was a certain newspaper in DC that I would never link to on this site again. Well, that rag has dedicated this week’s front page to Late Night Shots. It publishes offensive posts from their increasingly boring comment threads. It has the author crash LNS events at Smith Point. Real fantastic hands-in-the-mud journalism.

Sorry guys, but you’re about a year late to the party. That’s a social offense even worse than mistaking loafers for boating shoes. My first LNS mention on this site was on June 1, 2006. Wonkette picked up on it soon after. My first Smith Point crash was in November (where I finally met the very polite, affable, and legendary Reed Landry). After their Valentine’s party I stopped giving a shit. I’m not the only one. Wonkette hasn’t published a “Last Week’s Shots” in forever.

I noted that a good number of the posts published today were in Wonkette first. I would be furious if I were them. It’s easy to write a cover story when a good deal of the research has already been done for you.

No one cares about LNS anymore. Just like no one cares about this shitty and increasingly irrelevant paper.

Our only observation: Why would Wonkette be mad at this type of cribbing when they do it all the time?

  1. 1. Dr. Waternoise said:


    I find it strange how people from Wonkette and WhyIHateDC, to whom LNS clearly doesn’t cater, take such pride in being LNS aficionados and portray themselves as the barometers for what is and is not interesting about the LNS message boards. Even more confusing is why they found it interesting in the first place.

    Reed Landry should kick Washington City Paper’s ass. I heard a complaint from its editor was the reason the Deck closed.

    Rusty can’t hate anything ORIGINAL anymore anyway. Who cares what he hates….which is obviously himself.

    Why does Rusty apparently hate himself?

    Rusty is an overweight dud. He wants to be part of the LNS inner-circle but is too working class to ever be accepted. I wish he’d move to another city and would pour his self-hate on a idiot blog there. Rusty is nothing but a wet blanket and we all wish he’d get lost.

    I, for one, hate the poors like Rusty so obviously is. Like, get a new T-shirt, dude.

    You all love to hate Rusty, well here is a nice fact. He bitches about metro all the time, but his company pays for his monthly pass. So really how bad can a free ride to an easy job be?

    No girl would want to lay with Rusy since he’s gained the weight. (And P.S. an LNS girl once had her eye on him, and he was attracted.)

    Well, she has an T as one initial, and she’s not one of the most outward LNSers, but she’s met him before, and used to swoon over him. Until he made enemies of most of her pals. Ask him. Ask him!

    Some girl to ditch a crush because her friends disapprove. Maybe Rusty was better off.

  1. 13. Abby said:


    Well, Rusty was really rude when he did his posts and then he passed all that stuff to Wonkette. It’s not like he’s an innocent. His world is just as insidious as the LNSers.

  1. 14. Rusty said:


    I have no idea what you people are talking about. I have never been hit on by an LNSer. And I’m not fat. What I really am is someone not worth gossiping over.

    Although I love the idea of being a mastermind in some insidious world. That’s why I’m such an accomplished DM.

    If DM is sexual then I am not sure why he’d say “accomplished”. I know who would have details but she’s not willing to come forward.

  1. 19. Rusty's Weight Loss Coach said:


    Rusty as made some progress with his weight loss. He’s down to 42% body fat now. I think that in a few weeks you may actually be able to see his tiny penis.

    From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dungeon_Master:

    In the Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) role-playing game, the Dungeon Master (abbreviated as DM) is a selected participant who describes the game to the other players. In effect, the Dungeon Master creates the entire world and allows the players (the DM is usually not described as a player) to interact with that world.

  1. 22. Total Loser said:


    OMG! Rusty is into D&D? He’s a DM? Is that why he plays dress up with Mike/Toby all the time? WHAT A TOTAL AND COMPLETE L-O-S-E-R!!!!

  1. 23. Hardly Boy said:


    NO NO NO. Rusty CANNOT BE INTO D&D!!! Toby would not hang out with him if that were so. So, I won’t believe it unless Toby confirms.

    Rusty, you are a 24 year old virgin. No one cares what you think about the local party scene or how you feel about Internet message board discussions involving people who are capable of communicating beyond the confines of cyberspace.

    BTW, I’ve seen how Rusty dances. Not pretty. It was like a white trash version of Elaine’s famous office party dance on Seinfeld.

    I’m wondering if we can start a fund for Rusty to either move away or commit himself to an insane asylum.

    Was Rusty with the guy who first wrote Why I Hate DC?

    Rusty started all this, and should be very cautious about working in this town again.

  1. 32. Rusty is So Over said:


    Did anyone notice that the latest LNS e-newsletter linked to BHDC? Obviously Reed and the LNS crowd are avid BHDC readers. Does anyone read Rusty except for his mom? He ruined WIHDC, and I wish James would return and write for it again.

    posted July 13th, 2007 at 10:58 am | Quote

  1. 33. HONESTLY said:


    Bring James back! Fire Rusty! Why hasn’t Reed deleted Rusty yet?

    posted July 13th, 2007 at 10:59 am | Quote

  1. 34. Rusty Reader said:


    He had a guest blogger for a while, King Friday, who was great. I say he retire and let someone who can write about more than 3 topics spew the hate. Reed hates him, BTW even though Rusty sucks up to him on Friendster.

    posted July 13th, 2007 at 12:24 pm | Quote

  1. 35. Rusty Nail said:


    Rusty is over. Anyone who uses Friendster is over, for that matter.

    Rusty is secretary at a law firm. He lives in a group house. Does anyone in this universe think he’s in the same league as the guy who irons Reed’s underwear?

    Reed wears ironed underwear!!!

  1. 37. Rusty said:


    1. I don’t use Friendster.

    2. The term is “legal assistant.”

    3. Yeah, a group house. Alas.

    I personally think Rusty is cuter than Rock Creek Rambler.
