  • Is this really easy? Sounds kind of messy to me. But it does remind me of one of my favorite DFW quotes:

    "This argument is not quite the barrel of drugged trout that Methodological Descriptivism was, but it’s still vulnerable to objections".

    Obviously, this needs to be updated to "like shooting sea kittens in a barrel". Or maybe "lake kittens".

    Sea kittens remind me of sweater puppies; I don't know why. I just can't help it.
