A teeny-weeny subcategory of University Diaries…

… involves Scathing Online Schoolmarm complaining about headlines.

Take this one, from an opinion piece in the San Francisco Chronicle about Michael Pollan and others like him with controversial ideas about the food industry, and the way some universities don’t want these people invited to give talks on campus:

FRANK TALK ABOUT FOOD SOMETIMES QUASHED

Point One: Shouldn’t this at least be FRANK TALK ABOUT FOOD SOMETIMES SQUASHED? Then you get frank and squash, two foods.

Point Two: We could be yet more clever and write FRANK SPEAKERS SOMETIMES BEANED.

Point Three: More rad: FRANK… ‘N FRIES.
