Imagine how many people are not know-it-all lemmings. "I could have done this in Photoshop 10-years ago! Nothing new!" Well, it's new to a shitload of people today.

There's already a bunch of idiot comments about revenge porn, which this is not, but let's muddy the waters shall we? Get people talking about revenge porn and people will assume Swift took nudes that got loose. And to many of those people, that would be her fault.

Our reaction should be, "Great news! Now this sort of thing has reached a mainstream audience and hit so hard the White House is having a say!"

Nope, but not around here, not good enough. See, we gotta feel technically superior, because this isn't news to us. We gotta feel morally superior, uh, because... What exactly were all you loud mouths doing about this thing before yesterday?

Thanks for the sane take.
