That 'academic' wasn't the brightest of the bunch I am assuming. You expect a modicum of common sense. Reading that comment really annoyed me for some reason.

- DanBC 8y agoThe BBC hid the name, but the comment is easily available on Twitter. I too got really annoyed by the comment. But when I thought about why I was so annoyed about it I realised I'd been projecting a bunch of stuff onto it. I'd given the tweet a particular voice and style of talking and I thought I knew what that woman was like -- ridiculous things for me to do from a tweet. But I'm still annoyed by it.
