Oh, you're gonna love this!
The gossip columns of Rush & Malloy, Lloyd Grove, and Ben Widdicombe in the New York Daily News sometimes have little blurbs to strongly allude to something that they can't say outright. It was done all the time with stuff about Ellen DeGeneres before she came out.

Well, this was at the end of todays's Gatecrasher column by Ben Widdicombe.

Overheard at Barnes &Noble as two men perused "Brini Maxwell's Guide to Gracious Living": First man: "Ugh, I hate that right-wing witch." Second man: "You're confusing her with Ann Coulter. Brini's a drag queen."


Maybe it's nothing.

Maybe not.

Enjoy.

1. ok, I am dense so explain
what you are trying to say. btw, I have never heard of Brini Maxwell. If this is 'something' what is it you are trying to say that it is?

5. I thought this was obvious
Too many people are getting hung up on Brini Maxwell. I don't know who Maxwell is either. It doesn't matter. All you need to know about Maxwell is in the quote.

Geez, haven't we all heard about Coulter's Adam's Apple?!?

I don't know if there's any truth to it. Frankly, I think it's just internet rumor intended to ridicule someone who deserves it. Also, I don't know if Widdicombe was trying to seriously allude to something here or if he was having fun (hence me saying, "Maybe it's nothing. Maybe not. Enjoy.").

I thought it would be something you could enjoy for the sheer fun of it. Sorry for the trail of confusion. Oh, well.

Ben Stiller's alter-ego?

I still don't get the connection to Coulter though.

7. Coulter is not a drag queen.

There are pics of here from her college days and she looked like a normal woman (nice looking). So she didn' always look like the way she does now. Her adam's apple show because she is a thin and lanky woman. I can't stand the woman but we shouldn't berate her because of her looks.
