A-mous is right, you people need to chill out or stop reading this site.

At the risk of being called the favorite insult of db readers, a “douche”, I have to agree with the majority here, KH’s style is annoying at best. He writes Tom Wolfe-esque manifestos over topics that couldnt carry two paragraphs, let alone his 9. Remove him please.

Wow, please take this opportunity to rail against the DB staff…
Gawker gets made fun for moderating its posts, but I guess it avoids angry dribble like this from “authorities” on writing and comedy. Authorities who have such memorable experience as the powerful prose delivered in the pitchbook: “Celestica aquires Jabil” in 3 Acts and comedic prowess that has extended to making many an associate laugh through a botched DCF. Able critics, comedians, gentlemen and scholars all…
I always thought the point of a blog like this was to add a little something extra to the news – some personality, some take on stories, anything entertaining. It’s not DealBook. I mean did you guys get lost or forget your Journal online subscription passwords?
I do realize that many of you are busy working hard and playing harder, and that when you’re nailing down the final touches on a model that can change the very landscape of the EMS industry you don’t have time to fucking read polysyllabic words. Let the English majors read things, and hang out with members of the opposite sex. Yeah.
Keith – good job, look forward to more posts. Bess, come back from Waziristan safely.
And hey, at least a lot of these repressed folk are a.) reading the site and b.) commenting.

people read carney if they care about backdating, not his “humor.” they read levin if they want to actually laugh.

Anon 9:55, while it’s cute that you and other female starved readers have developed crushes on one of the few women you interact with (if you can count commenting on her posts as an interaction), you don’t need to take out your frustrations of Carney turning down your requests for pictures of Bess on those who haven’t tripped and fallen into the same pathetic morass in which you currently wade.

sanjaya not only sounds like he’s more interested in over-written cliche’s but that he’s retarded? at 7:59: “keith hahn is back at dealbreaker? Say it ain’t so. I realize that you guys were in a bind when Carney was hit by that car, but Hahn just couldn’t cut it. His posts were completely annoying.” which sounds normal and then at 7:27: “Bess is overrated. Haven’t missed her one bit. Her posts are about as entertaining as Keith’s feeble attempts.” all of keith’s post sound the same, to say the least.

Now that Keith has returned to the fold perhaps he can entice Brock out of whatever hole he has been hiding in…best articles on the DB

And yes, I agree with anonymous 7:27PM. Bess is overrated. Haven’t missed her one bit. Her posts are about as entertaining as Keith’s feeble attempts.

Ugh. Keith Hahn is back at Dealbreaker? Say it ain’t so. I realize that you guys were in a bind when Carney was hit by that car, but Hahn just couldn’t cut it. His posts were completely annoying. This ‘acquisition’ reminds me of Time Warner / AOL — and you know what happened there. If you want to lose readers, bring Hahn back. You’ll make me spend more time at the WSJ’s excellent blog, Dealbook and 247wallst.com.

People can’t read – Bess back on Monday. Site expanding. Different voices. Hands across financial websites. Hooray for everything.

Didn’t Dealbreaker already own Supermogul? I guess your post is a nicer way of saying that Supermogul just never took off. RIP.
