Ask Sally

June 29, 2009 – 9:16 am, by Scott Bridges

Congratulations, Sally Morell, you’ve written a column that is 100% Twitterable — a fantastic achievement for somebody who hates Twitter! Every single paragraph in your piece is 140 characters or less.*

And congratulations also, Sally, for turning your Herald Sun column into an Agony Aunt podium from which to tell other people how to live their lives by giving them smug advice they didn’t ask for, based on assumed information in turn based on gossip, and using criteria they may not share.

If I were Sonia Kruger, I’d have Todd McKenney’s baby. Now.

You’re not.

* Disclosure: one paragraph is 141 characters but is still tweetable if you leave off the full stop.

    That’s possibly one of the dumbest columns I’ve ever read. Pointless, poorly written, uninteresting, witless…It ticks all the boxes. Does she get paid for such idiotic tripe?

    If I were Sally Morell, I’d have ‘Creative Writing’ Lessons. Now.

    Oh, come on. So she writes in short sentences and the subs set it to the usual format of one sentence/paragraph. This is just snarking.

    I’ve been away for a few years. Is Sally Morell still married to Andrew Bolt?
