Twisted Timber

OK, I've decided to stop reading Crooked Timbers discussions. Mainly because of the snarky weirdness of the commenters -- check out the following. Is Lecturing Dead?

It's not the bloggers on Crooked Timber, it's the fricking commenters. Pace John Quiggin, whose posts I find especially enlightening...

They're freaks! They're not even trolls. There may be some women on the authors' list (I believe there are two), but I'll be damned if I ever see a woman's name on their discussions.

Jesus Freaking whatever. That's it -- I've had it with that weird world, which at first I found so fascinating...
