Ezra Klein over at The American Prospect (See how I did that? It’s almost like I know him), picks up on a new advertising campaign being launched by fast food companies to weave the notion of “linner” into the public consciousness (or subconsciousness). As you have likely deduced, a clever concatenation of lunch and dinner, linner is to be the meal between lunch and dinner.
I would posit that if this campaign is successful, it will be a sad day indeed for the American public. Unfortunately, since we already believe in Restless Leg Syndrome, I fear it will not be too long before I myself am wondering what’s for linner.
