In an interview with The Guardian, Where the Wild Things Are author Maurice Sendak exposed his hatred of Gwyneth Paltrow, and everyone else, and then also pretty much just everything. He seems great.

'Sup, pogs!
Let's all go to the movies, and let's all see the same movie, and let's discuss it here.
Gabe loves fan fiction. You Can Make It Up features his own personal alternate adventures starring some of our favorite characters.
After watching Death Sentence, a terrible movie starring Kevin Bacon as a father in search of vigilante justice directed by Saw's James Wan, Gabe embarked on The Hunt For The Worst Movie of All Time. This is his sad journey.
Salman Rushdie, Roald Dahl, Stephen King, Gwyneth Paltrow. Sounds about right.
You know I think I’d hate everything too if I lived in the Unabomber’s shack.
I’m waiting for a buddy comedy featuring him and Harlan Elison. I expect it will be rife with gentle good humor.
I fucking love this guy. Love him.
Grumpy. Lives with his dog. Hates Gwyneth Paltrow. Sounds like a certain Videogum editor I know.
Gabe and MAX – coincidence?!!??!
and the ages match up too, it all fits
Can’t wait for Jack Nicholson to play him in a movie.
I’d absolutely watch a show with him and Anthony Bourdain just reading a list of things they hate.
They would take turns! There would be video vignettes! There could be running gags: “But I’m the one who hates Rudy Giuliani!” or “You just hate her because she looks like Paula Deen!” or “Do you hate him or do you hate-hate him?” “I Stephen King-hate him.” And every week would end with them turning to the camera and hating in unison.
This show would be like the Gunsmoke of Bile, and it would run until Sendak (or Bourdain) died.
True story:
My greataunt, who was basically like a second grandmother to me, was named Mildred, called Millie. If I ever had a daughter I wanted to calle her Millie, and hang a picture in the nursery of the cover of “Dear Mili,” an amazing book that Sendak illustrated. His pictures are so moving!
Maurice Sendak is awesome. “Where the Wild Things Are” was controversial when it came out because it showed a child being disobediant. He also wrote another children’s book which was controversial because it had a drawing of a penis.
I hear 60 Minutes is in need of someone with great powers of complaining. Maurice could be the edgier, younger breed of cranky old men.
