Gotta have the last word, huh, Tim? If you couldn't care less, why'd you bother to bring it up in the first place?

"Besides my post made it to MetaFilter and linkfilter, which have larger readerships anyway."

Then why were you bitching about it not being posted on Boing Boing? Should all web sites everywhere be devoted to posting only what you consider important? Maybe that's _why_ it didn't get posted on Boing Boing, because it was already adequately covered elsewhere. Personally, I read Boing Boing for the stuff that _isn't_ posted to a bunch of other places already.

Ya know, Cory may be kinda touchy when someone maligns his friends, but when you say "Boingboing is above criticism", it's obvious that you didn't notice that there were a bunch of other criticisms of this post that didn't seem to excite such a response from Cory (or anyone else). If you look at them, you'll see that while the posters criticize, they don't categorically dismiss Xeni's post, and they don't whine about how their overlooked posts are so much better and more worthwhile and morally significant.

I should probably shut up now (or maybe I should have an hour ago).
