You might have noticed that the “Comments” page of
New York’s current issue contains a mini-profile of serial Intel (and
Vulture, and
Grub Street, and
Cut) commenter ScottRose. Rose came to the attention of the editors after he left a staggering
736 comments over a span of six months, and last week, when his 734
th comment caused a violent uprising from fellow readers, they decided to find out exactly who this guy was. To stop and smell the Rose, if you will. “Comments” paints quite a picture: An Upper West Side resident, Rose is actually a professional writer — he’s a published novelist and is scribe for publications such as
Yacht Vacations and Charters and
Pampered Puppy. But we can’t help but notice that they left out something extremely important, something that, more than anything, tells us who Scott Rose really
is.

Come on, guys. We know words are our business, but as they say, sometimes a picture is worth thousands of ’em.
