Rebutting The New Yorker’s most famous cartoon

 

NB to professors searching for a colleague’s name + “pussy”: If you are going to troll the Internet for images of or information about someone’s genitals, you might want to do it from someplace other than the university where you work.

Especially when your last name and first initial are embedded in your IP address.

And even more especially when the proprietor of the site where you land is a big fan of your colleague’s writing.

I’m not sure I’ve ever been more offended by a Google search. And believe me, what with my affection for Lolita, people have arrived here through some pretty twisted paths.
 

Update: I’m not interested in playing 20 questions, and given that my sidebar rotates I’m sure you could plug in fifty female writers’ names at any given time and come up with fifty different matches, but since there’s confusion, let me be clear: searcher and searchee teach at the same place, and neither of them wrote a piece for Slate about America’s deodorized fiction. Thanks.
