Via Salon:
Apparently a pro-life blogger was enraged at an article he read. The article, entitled "I'm totally Psyched About This Abortion," raised the ire of our poorly behaving blogger, and under normal circumstances we here at Bloggers Behaving Badly would excuse a rant directed towards an obviously inflammatory article.
However, the article in question appeared in the Onion, the well known satirical website. When the emails came pouring in, mocking our fellow blogger about his mistake, he posted five (count 'em) responses, where he claimed (1) He was only mistaken because the article was realistic, (2) Maybe the article pretended to be humorous but it was really a poorly disguised left-wing propaganda piece, and (3) All his posts were jokes! Get it? He wasn't serious! (The other responses repeated these three basic themes).
Losing your shit over a satirical website and then completely falling apart when your mistake is pointed out to you? That qualifies you as a badly behaving blogger.
This is our first reader submitted post! Keep it up!
Ed. Note: The original post has been edited heavily since it appeared and will therefore not be linked to, nor will the Blogger's name be posted because of death threats he apparently received.
