Barry, lighten up on poor Share, she can't help it. Give her a little support 
and love. After all, isn't that what we all crave?

I couldn't read the article because of a persistent Foreign Policy Subscription 
pop=up that I couldn't figure out how to close this early in the morning, but 
off the cuff I would say it is not exactly groundbreaking news that, as Rudyard 
Kipling said, "The female of the species is more deadly than the male."

Fascinating. My box said, as I mentioned before,
something like "Continue on to the article," and
when I clicked it, allowed me to do so. 

Could it auto-detect that my Nerd-Fu is better
than yours?  :-)

That brings up the article along with a big square box that blocks the article 
and insists I sign up. There's no way to dismiss the box by clicking anywhere 
on it, so I dismissed it with Nerd-Fu: went into my browser's options and 
disabled javascript. Reloaded page. Problem solved.

Barry's OPD Levels.

Disclaimer: This is based on Uncle Tantrum's first post of the day. OPD
Levels may dramatically vary and Kali's Pimp is not held liable for any
paranoid, obsessive, delusional behavior of King Baby Barry and anyone
