From Coyote today, which in my experience not only applies to blog posts, but to more formal settings like particular lectures or even entire courses. But I don’t want to be removed from polite company, so I’ll say only a little here. Here is the title:

He’s 100% spot on. We can write it something like, in the University setting, “Your arguments are totally idiotic, even though I never did the readings, or never attended the lecture, or did not pay attention to that particular part of the lecture, or even though I’ve never once spoken to you or e-mailed you and even though what I know of you is third-hand from …” OK, back to the (rainy) woods.
