Machiavelli and Jonas Brothers
And I say it is better to be both feared and loved, for it means neither a boy band nor the Zac Efron of that market can overthrow the Jonases without much Publicity.
That is an excerpt from Machiavelli’s little-known work, The Jonas Brother. Find more here at McSweeney’s.
And if you need some background — and you might, if you are not a 10-year-old girl — here it is: Jonas Brothers; Zac Efron.

Wow…thanks for spreading this. As someone with an unholy fixation on those Jonas Brothers, it made me quite glad, even if the gag didn’t 100% click. Nice.

Mildly amusing, but I didn’t have the patience to read all of Jack Stuef’s parody of The Prince (even though the parody’s not that long).
