    Some of those on the top 10 and honorable mention lists kinda gauge who you'd have a beer with and who you'd openly mock in the newsroom.

    "It's how I change the world." You gotta be fucking kidding.

    And did Roy Peter Clark automatically put his motto in the top 10? Fuck him.

    Why didn't I major in business?
    Newspapers: Just coupons and puzzles now.
    Why so bitter? Read angryjournalist.com.

    After a local HS tennis coach berated one of our reporters this weekend, this is our motto: Why isn't there a photographer here?

    Ha. I thought of that too. Fine and dandy to think that way (and hopefully, deep down, you still do), but if you take the time to submit that to a journalism site, you're a tool.
