Something about this blog post by Jeneane Sessum triggered my tiny little sociological imagination:”Last night was a 9/11 of sorts…
Which part are you unsure of, ubiquity or pundithood?
Oh, I don’t know, I feel like it entitles you to certain things – like the permission to harumph at any and all trends or statements occuring in your presence, and no one can say or do anything about it. I have to admit, though, that I laughed out loud when you were assigned the title. “Danah’s a ubiquitous pundit? *snort*”
So get down with your bad self, and harumph away!
if i am unable to read the article would that signify that I am a marginalized pundit?
I suppose that’s different than being a Ubiquitous Pundit.
Shift key, what shift key? 🙂
