The internet, and it surprises me that I am just now able to articulate this truth, has given us all a delightful opportunity to wonder and outrage at the idiots in our lives. Facial expressions don’t offend our computer screens, and the people who say things that produce internal aghast-ness and muffled screams of laughter in the real world are often the most verbose over the world wide web. Thank you, twitter and tumblr and pinterest and blogs and instagram, for serving as a zoo for us when we need to feel better about ourselves.

For this, we are eternally thankful.
