Another round of drinks for my tipsy friend then. The drunker the internet gets, the better, I say!

I saw that too, and I thought, "It would be more correct to say that it's like a drunk library that won't shut up."

In general, I am all for drunken librarians.

At my first library job, I had a librarian coworker who'd been drinking in a bar with a couple other librarians, when a college student walked up to them and said, "Excuse me, you're librarians, aren't you? Can I ask you a question?"

The Internet is a volubly drunk librarian. Fox News is a belligerently drunk illiterate pump jockey. Broadcast network news is a maudlin drunk hairdresser. . . .
