10 reasons why Marc Spitz is a hack asshole by Rachel Elder, The Coinstar Years

For whatever reason, Marc Spitz is getting away with murder. His desperate attempts to be "cool," then feigning mock embarrassment over said "coolness" have somehow enabled him to publish crap novels, write for Spin, and gain attention as a playwright. Basically, this 6th grade philosophy has worked wonders for him: Take something you love/admire, then simply pretend you hate it to seem "cool" and then keep producing more crap! For the sake of the young children, Marc...please grow up and stop being such a try-hard. It's just not "cool!"

          that if the premise of this article is true, Marc will cut and paste her article onto his website as proof that the establishment wants to shoot him down, therefore, proving how hip and subversive he is.
