The Boston Drunkard effect. It seems like everyone over there wants to go on and on and on in an attempt to be Oh So Clever and Relevant.
Instead they just use a lot of words to recycle crap, memes, talking points and outright lies. And most of them are terrible writers. As I said, they think the Purple Prose of the Boston Drunkard is some sort of high bar. To be. Reached.
I usually can't make it past the first 2 or 3 sentences and that was true here as well. And I am sure I am not alone.
