A bit strange though... When King posts that stuff it's considered "sassy," but when Hoss or I do it, it's called "crap."

It must all be in the delivery. :)

Not the delivery. It's in the position. Sell a few hundred million books, and some blogger will call you "sassy" too.

For illustration of this, in today's lesson, we turn to the Book of Bull Durham, where we find Crash talking to his protégé, and I quote: Your showers shoes have fungus on them. (Skip a bit, brother.) If you win 20 in the show, you can let the fungus grow back and the press'll think you're colorful. Until you win 20 in the show, however, it means you're a slob.
