When I read Vox, I'm like, whoa dude, I bet this is totally like what it was like during the fucking Enlightenment, man.

I refuse to read this tripe, as I'm certain that anyone who can see the SUN will think this is a dumb idea. @ezraklein

You want to even FURTHER dumb down the rest of the world? @ezraklein

Why does the periodic table have so many complicated elements? There should be just one, "Stuff" #voxpitch #St

Let's make Summer longer by moving days from March to July #voxpitch

Dear @voxdotcom: Why don't we, like, make winter summer and fall winter? And just get rid of spring 'cause it's stupid. Think about it, man.

"Look, I know almost every human being on earth gets why we have timezones. But they confuse ME, personally." – @MattYglesias

"Why do we need time zones?" <- This is what people who swear they're smarter than you spend time thinking about.

— RB (@RBPundit) August 5, 2014

It's not that the timezone thing would actually ever happen. It's that this MORON actually thinks he's smarter than you.

I have this repeating nightmare where I’m a hamster and Kid Matt Yglesias is reaching into my cage with an idea.

I wish I was a fly on the wall at @voxdotcom's pitch for a second round of funding. Someone better YouTube that.
