The wealth of hilarity on the Internet. Knitters. KNITTERS of all people having blog wars. Yarn Harlot has someone who apparently take patriotism to the extreme. I’ve never read Yarn Harlot, why would I, I don’t knit. But it’s making it’s rounds on the Internet. I’m guessing from what little research I’ve done, that Yarn Harlot’s home is not in fact America but rather she is Canadian and just happens to live in the United States.
Some woman, which I will not name, but managed to track down, apparently believes that if you live in this nation you must at all times proclaim that it’s the best in the world. I’ve never been of the belief that we should see ourselves as the best nation out there, I think it’s highly arrogant to say we are. We have our faults and could stand to make some changes for sure. But that’s Anti-America, according to this person and some of my own family as well. Oh well, so sad.
Anyhow this woman who got offended about someone proclaiming Canada as a great country, better than America, a valid opinion even if you disagree, has decided to go to the extreme and leave some of the most vile and nasty comments and email to Yarn Harlot. I just don’t get that extreme patriotism. It’s the worst of America honestly to be so hateful of those who don’t happen to think we’re the best. But hey what can you do.
One of the more hilarious things that I saw in all of this is that Miss Extreme Patriot believes that if you meet someone and have a few minute conversation that makes you good friends with them. LOL! Reality that is not.
Anyhow, God Bless the Internet and the wealth of entertainment you give me because frankly everyone can use a good laugh now and then. I do realize that for Yarn Harlot this is quite annoying and probably down right scary, but I think sometimes you have to look at the hilarity of the situation.
