If you had just said "tl;dr", you might not have sounded as much like a willful ignoramus to those who might actually read it.

- bradshaw1965 16y agoyou're as wrong as posting about another side. The post is reactionary, rambling nonsense link bait about a statement of fact.
- apotheon 16y agoSaying it doesn't make it so -- and I'd expect someone at HN to know that.
- bradshaw1965 16y agoOk, I'll back off. I'll admit a personal dislike to follow up posts to popular content professing "another side". They feel like link bait to me and usually offer something other then "another side" of a topic or statement of fact. Knock yourself out with your opinion.
- apotheon 16y agoWhat -- you dislike it if it's off-site, but it's okay in comments? I don't get it. edit: It's not linkbait. It's really long -- too long for anyone to be likely to read in comments, and too long to throw away in a temporary context.
- bradshaw1965 16y agoIt hit me the wrong way on the day I read it. I backed off when I realized that I was probably interpreting the intent incorrectly.
