I already saw this on boing boing.

Oh, no wait; I didn't: I DON'T READ BOING BOING.

Why is this here?

The only thing more insufferable than Cory or Xeni is a Boing Boing moderator.

At least the MetaFilter admins are reasonably polite and, whenever possible, democratic. The Boing Boing moderation policies seem uneven or irrational at best, and will do little to promote a healthy exchange of ideas on that site.

Yeah, dunno why this is mefi related. Maybe as a comment in the old mefi is going downhill thread?
