A despicable, anal retentive human being whose only goal is to annoy a writer enough to inspire him or her. Their repressed sexual desires are shown through their egomaniacal, useless insertions in bold print, underlines, or annoying italics suggesting the writer does not understand what the writer is saying. An editor also receives distinct carnal pleasure in titling works for a writer, often not pertaining at all to the work. Examples include "Sense and Sensibility" and "Pride and Prejudice" as well as "Joe Biden Entitled To Better Media Coverage."
Editors do not understand what a dash is and refuse to accept that they do not know comma rules.

An editor's work:
I went to the bathroom and could not find toilet paper -- there was none. // reword this, it's awkward. I suggest "I went to the bathroom and could not find the toilet paper, there was none."
Editor: When I titled your article something that had nothing to do with your article, I came. After I added this paragraph about how little sense your paper made, I italicized the paragraph and came again. Then, I drank several quarts of scotch and, comma spliced.
