Kat Wilder: To sleep, perchance to have quiet

I thought this was a family website for a public paper.

You would think that the IJ could actually find a columnist that could 1) Write something interesting and 2) actually have the ability to...write. What a concept.

Instead they find one who connects with other Marin women, goes on dates and has sex...OMG. A real person.

Read the church newsletter if you are offended.

Hey not offended at all! She just repeats herself in almost every column. I started reading her column when it was new to the IJ and actually liked the stories about dating but then I realized she just talks about the same thing, over-and-over AND she can't write!! That is what I am saying.

Yah and what's that old adage - if you have to talk about it, it probably ain't happening. She's a dried up prune trying to sound like some hottie. Someone should tell her that snoring is coming from her dog.

good for you — what — don't "families" snore? And, where do you think "families" come from? The stork? Just wondering ...

94903 Land — If you think I'm not writing anything interesting, and that I can't write, and that I "repeats herself in almost every column ... why, why, WHY do you keep reading me? Really, there are so many other things to read! Stop torturing yourself, OK? Really, I insist ...

Thanks, orgasm. LOVE your name, BTW ...

So Over It — So does that mean that if I "have to talk about it (it being snoring, the topic of the column), it "ain't happening?" Is the snoring all in my mind? Since it's a dried up prune-like mind, perhaps ....

I though i was the only one who had these thoughts.
Whenever I have given constructive critism-i'm
labeled a misogynist. Maybe the
IJ doesn't pay very well? You would think with a
county of this size and filled with writers, they
could come up with someone who had a little talent-
they do have beth ashley, but her columns are buried. Well, at least, Kats is not vehemitly arguing
with every neg. post-so far-and if you do-i'm not
one of your exes.

Talking about your shagging bragging not the boring snoring column.

@94903 Land:
Palleazze, her writing is P R O V O C A T I V E

To paraphrase an old aphorism - those who can, do; and those who can't, cricize. And as for the IJ being a "family" newspaper, check out the normal fare on the front page. A lot more shocking than anything Kat has addressed. And I always find her to be witty and thought-provoking, which is more than can be said for a lot of other columns in various newspapers around the Bay. It is amazing how people feel the need to get nasty with their criticisms - which, as any good therapist will tell you, says a lot more about the castigater than the object of his/her wrath.

So, I guess you CAN'T either, eh?

And what did your bad therapists tell you when da wittle boys picked on you?

Not as well as Kat, that's for sure, Mr. Whipped. And I suppose you're right - even those columnists who write about topics that I don't find of interest do their best. So, good point. And I really can't say, Refund, because I never really experienced that situation.
It does intrigue me that the critics of Kat are located mostly in Novato and San Francisco - is there something tainting the water there?

Gee, maybe we should visit Hayward more often so we can become more enlightened!
