    Aghast

    I'm aghast.

    Between the people earnestly making corrections, thinking this is a news item, the people acting out their self-righteousness, and the ones criticizing the piece for not being as funny as they think it should be, I'm almost wishing that the joke is on me for being taken in by a coordinated trolling effort.

    I fear for Salon when this is the level of "thinking" among its readers. I take solace only in the fact that this was a fluff piece, no doubt appealing more to the brainless and the mindless, and therefore the harebrained response is only to be expected.
