And the best summary ever:

"nayrt all this endless debate really sounds like to me is:

Anon on KMM: Excuse me, you just stepped on my toe.
Other Anon: Dude, it was an accident, stop freaking out about it!
Anon on M_M: They're not freaking out, they just want the author to get off Original Anon's foot.
Author: I didn't mean to step on it, ok? Can we just carry on?
Anon Somewhere: Ok, can you please get off the toe now?
Other Anon: How dare you get offended about Author stepping on your toe? People step on toes all the time! People get run over by buses! People sometimes kick things and injure their own toes!
Author: Sorry your foot was there, dude. I didn't mean to step on it.
Anon Somewhere: JUST GET THE FUCK OFF THE BLOODY TOE YOU DIPSHIT.
Other Anon: INTENTIONS COUNT YOU OVERREACTING NUTS. WHAT ABOUT THE BUSES AND THE PEOPLE WHO GET KICKED BY HORSES. STOP INSISTING THE AUTHOR APOLOGISE ABOUT YOUR TOE."

Yeeeeeeah.

I really do enjoy ontd_political as a news aggregator, but I really wish everyone put their sources at the top of their entries instead of the bottom. It would be so much better for my sanity.

That sounds much more convenient, yes.

Oh god I missed my icons so much.

Somedays it's hysterical, because 90% of the people who read any given article will only read the headline/first paragraph, or completely ignore the source. The amount of people that lose their minds over Onion articles always makes my day.

Every once in a while the Abortionplex comes up again somewhere and I laugh and laugh. And then cry a little.

There's a reason I don't ever look at my Facebook.
