You’d have to be such an expert given the number of trolls that appear below his/her work. =D

It reminds me of all the partisan political comments I read on news blogs (like Jake Tapper’s Political Punch) that are just pure bile.

People have asked me why I read the AL and it’s like this: I read it because you should read professional blogs that you tend to disagree with. It’s how you dismantle the echo chamber and get a feel for other people’s perspectives. And sometimes, I find myself in agreement; this also reminds me that there always exists a common ground.

As for the Rickrolling, nothing like a little reminder as to what other content exists on YouTube when people start acting in a humorless fashion. =D

I actual didn’t even watch that video that was floating around until you posted it. I didn’t realize the controversy either.

Did librarians really think she wasn’t coached? I thought they did, but if they are unlinking, and I supposed shunning the video, I guess they didn’t.

I don’t think that makes us a silly profession for the video, but silly if you are unlinking it because she was coached. She’s three. I thought it was coached when I first saw the first posting, but I never watched the video until now.

I think that AL crossed a line in this posting- I’ve enjoyed, up to a point, some of the mockery that has characterized his/her writing up to now, but this one, and the sheer contempt in the comments, was revolting. In medieval times, the jester was given a considerable latitude in order to fulfill their role of pricking the monarch’s grandeur- but in the end, their tiny heads were cut off.
