    The real joke is that millions of unwitting people clicked the link to the article. Instead, you just googled the author’s name. If they had put the title ‘Twilight’ in the headline, everyone would’ve just thought to themselves, “well, no surprise there,” and kept scrolling.

      I’ll have you know that I clicked as I wanted to check if the bastard really did have a black eye, it kinda looks like that, but there are shadows that might obscure it.

      However I choose to believe that he got a black eye when he was discovered.
