From a reader:

Mr. Goldberg,
I have nothing constructive to add to todays column except to say that me and a bunch of other like minded individuals here in the belly of the beast of the people’s republic of Massachusetts are so sick of our honorable junior senator J. Alfred Flipflop’s (mis)use of the word nuance that we have lately used it in place of the very adaptable word “sh*t”, i.e., “You are so full of nuance it’s pathetic!” Or, person 1 – “Grady Little was correct in keeping Pedro in for the 8th inning” person
2 – “BULLLLNUANCE!!!” And, “Officer, I didn’t have any drinks”, officer – “tell it to the judge, in the meantime you’re NOL”, etc. (I told you I didn’t have anything constructive to add).
