On Snark

No, this isn't a Trust30 post. Yes, I'll be making two of those a day for the next couple days. This is something related, but separate. I just wanted to talk something through.

Today my Snark-detector got pegged, and I'm just tired of snark. Cynicism, snark, sarcasm, sneering at those things that don't live up to whatever standard we might hold up… is something that I'm frankly tired of. And if this is the defining characteristic of our age, I think that's sad.

If I've been snarky like that in the past, I'm sorry, and I'm going to try not to do that again.
