About the Editor

Chris Crooks is a Colgate University graduate with not enough time on his hands. His current claim to fame stems mainly from his involvement with the meteoric rise of the Chicago sketch comedy group Colonel Ingot Whustard’s Compelling Mango Gesture. He is also Vice President of Mango Gesture Inc., and serves on its board of directors, a position for which he receives no salary and little respect. He decided to write The Daily Tirade on a drunken bet. (Disclaimer: The preceding statement is not actually true.) He delivers equal parts wit, insight, and cynicism for your reading pleasure five times a week. And maybe more if he feels like it.
