Virginia Postrel Loses It.

She's joined the "Shotgungate" stampede. How strange.

Maybe she's drunk: after all, she did misspell "discreet" in that entry, which is a bit out of character for her.

In other news, my brother has—in the course of his life—broken both arms and his pelvis. I'm afraid I'm going to have to shoot him for taking risks with his own life. Catch you later; I'm headed to the Bay Area with my Glock, in the best traditions of both Islamo-fascist honor killers and loony Americans who overreact to hunting accidents.

Via Hackbarth.

4 she did misspell "discreet" in that entry I'm in danger of making a Descartes joke, but discrete is properly spelled. One usage might be discrete math. The sort that can be drawn up on a Cartesian coordinate system. :-)

5 I was assuming that Postrel knew the difference, and that she was aiming for discreet, yet ended up with discrete. You're correct, however: it's possible that this was more than a typo, more than the sort of thing one does while one is typing. But I choose not to think that of Postrel.
