Dep't. of Self-Aggrandizement
Highly rated!
We're very, very proud of ourself that while we called Mataconis an "ignoramus" in our first draft, we deleted it & appeared civil.

The publisher thanks Google/Bugger for denecessitating verification. (Not that we need explain anything to anyone.)
But Doug is an ignoramus!
ReplyDeleteWhy does M.B. insist on hiding the truth???

ReplyDeleteFor the greater good.
Doug will put the ignor into ignoramus, you betcha!
ReplyDeleteIndeed. You are far more circumspect than I. I've just been arguing with an obvious right wing troll over at Think Progress - probably because I've had a few glasses of wine.
ReplyDeleteSigh.
Well I got a shout-out from TBogg which is, like, almost as good.
ReplyDeleteNever leave "ignoramus" out of your platform, MB

ReplyDelete"Wisdom of crowds" or wisdom of TBogg? Equal, we'd say.
We were completely straight-edge at the time; probably wouldn't've bothered otherwise. (Or edited ourself, either.)
But we'll be more ignoramus-inclusive next time.
Oh the civility!
