Appetizers
Buffet Buffs
You may have noticed: we have a new name! Reviews are pouring in (we expect no less from our beloved and opinionated readers). “GENIUS NAME EXCELLENT WORK!!!!!!!!!!!,” one reader says. “Mazel, Boof! Sounds delicious!” opines another. “finally answering the q of whether magazines can be trans,” sez one fellow media collectivist. “Hope you don’t get a cease and desist letter from the estate of Jimmy…” writes an encouraging but sensible member of our community (if Margaritaville Incorporated is reading this, we would like to point out that this Buffet only has one “t” and it is silent).
Others were slightly less enthused, but remain optimistic. “You haven’t set a bar, you’ve set a sneeze guard,” a reader tells us (good line), but all is not lost: “you don’t have something to live up to, you have something to overcome. I have every confidence you will.”
Merci bien to all the ComRAdes of Buffet (CraBs for short) for the well wishes, and please ask your friends, loved ones, coworkers, and even passing acquaintances to subscribe. Our gift subscription system has gotten an upgrade, too, so it’s easier than ever to share the bounty of Buffet. —Sam
