John Cheese, Cracked-related question: with Soren Bowie’s articles, the joke is that he’s a narcissist who looks down on the less privileged. The joke with Dan O’Brien’s articles is that he’s a depressed comic book nerd. Is there any such joke going on with David Wong’s articles? I’m not sure if I see it.

No, Dave is more straight up. He’s a news type of guy, so he writes in a news type of voice. He’ll see something that gets him thinking, and then he’ll build on that idea until his work is almost a full-blown philosophy. Both Dave and I used to write in character voices for years, but we just got to the point where there wasn’t much more we could do with them. We like the articles where people write in character (Soren Bowie is a fucking genius at it — Dan O’Brien actually is a comic book nerd). We just decided to go a different direction, personally.
