I keep finding myself making unnecessary quips in threads because I'm bored and don't want to do my writing work, but I know those posts of mine contribute nothing. Nothing. So this is my catch-all for all the variously clever, cute, stupid things I'd otherwise say today. Just trust me: they're all of them either clever, cute, or very stupid. Promise.
 


After like sixty pages, I have to wonder if anyone has had the nerve to say, "they like it better when it benefits them?"
 


You know, I don't think it's really your fault. Over the past two decades I've noticed this: the bigger the internet gets, the harder it becomes to fact-check things effectively. I'd have expected it to get easier, but it seems actually to be harder.
I think this is by design. The number of people who want to be correct far outnumber those who actually are correct.

Plus, Hollywood has taught us that things on a computer screen are always correct, and people who use computers are always the smartest people in the room.
