    Hundreds of years of years of journalistic tradition should be trashed, because you thought Talking Points Memo was talking about Taylor Swift?

    What next, are you going to get confused reading about Watergate in history books, because you thought a gate that holds water is a dam?

    Good lord, we are a failed society…

      If you don’t know that rather obscure reference the sentence turns into a garden path one.

      I’m not even a American native so how should I know. Watergate I grok, this I’ve not heard of

      If you give up on society this easy i think you are the problem, though.
