Roger Ebert Pwns Us All

Aside from being one of the city's most recognizable cultural icons, as well as a bad ass who has battled cancer and kept churning out quality work, movie critic Roger Ebert has a wicked sense of humor, as this Q&A from earlier in the month shows [via kottke].

Q. Yo dude, u missed out on "Disaster Movie," a hardcore laugh-ur-@zz-off movie! Y U not review this movie!? It was funny as #ell! Prolly the funniest movie of the summer! U never review these, wat up wit dat?

How about that bizarre creationism column Ebert trotted out a little while ago? I know it was a joke, but he's really swinging in all directions these days.

Ebert "pwns" us all? I know *you guys* trip all over yourselves to fawn over everything he does, but he's really not that great..
