This is wack. I looked up to him, man. We wuz on a different level since I wasn't hustlin' workin Accountz Receivable, and he kept it real. He wuz an inspiration to me livin' day to day in da cubicle projects. Office life is hell, son. He went out like a true thug though and I'm gonna pour one out for him at the next office sponsored happy hour. posted by kkokkodalk at 1:19 PM on May 1, 2007

"...after his face was immobilized against the glass of a photocopier and repeatedly struck with the machine's cover."
There's no way my boy HJK went out like that. Makes him sound like a chump. And no other corpses on-site? Someone must have cleaned up all the suckas H-Dawg took with him when he went.
The only rational explanation? He faked his own death. He'll be back. posted by tarnish at 2:23 PM on May 1, 2007

As long as young scrawny white boys see accountancy as the only way off the mean streets of Scarsdale and Pemberton, they're going to buy into the media myth. posted by Devils Rancher at 2:58 PM on May 1, 2007 [1 favorite]

I remember one of the first Kornfeld posts from the dead-tree version of the Onion back in the early '90's as being one of the funniest things I'd read.

I wondered what his last column was all about. I see they were closing in on him.
Fuck you to the CEO! Fuck you to the CFO! Fuck you to the HR D-E-P-T! Fuck you to the Midstate Office Supply KKKompany. Fuck you to all you redneck, prejudice, Account Payabo mutha fuckas. Y'all can kiss my ass.
I'm picturing whatever Onion writer who wrote Kornfield getting incredibly sick of writing it and writing this amid alternating bursts of hysterical rage and laughter.
But they can't kill Jean. She's so deeply sad and fucked she makes me feel better about my own pathetic life. posted by orange swan at 6:57 PM on May 2, 2007
