But I think we can stand to slow down a little and understand sometimes there’s subtext to the quick blurbs folks throw out on Twitter. Again, if I’m wrong on this ***essment of Rob, then I’m wrong.

@AvengedHeart54 Yeah - and that goes for the blurb too. So if I read the back cover & I don’t feel it, I put it down. Pre-covid I did a lot of “i’ll read the 1st page and see if i like it” if something grabbed my attention. A nice book cover alone doesn’t do it for me anymore. I need substance

@mle_aherne @SocsBoxNUIG @NUIGSU @nuigalway Your tweets have helped but there’s no real information. It’s all a blurb. Who can tell me why we paid for sult or why we even have to pay a levy for a building. The problem for me is voting no means it’s okay to keep taking money off us. It’s insulting.

@blurbette I once did that with my expensive sungl***es after a back injury. They fell off my head and after looking down and saying, "Awww man", I walked away. A lady saw it and chased me down to my car after picking them up. I still thank her daily because they are needed for migraines.❤

The problem with this irresponsible reporting is- it can’t be undone. A retraction on page 4 of the NYT, or a blurb on CNNs website, or even an on air retraction by Tapper: will do no good. The damage was done- the bullet hit its target.
