From Silence in the Library. Biographies. A death at the end. And the Doctor talking about the (Plain of) Size/Sighs.

delgrosso: beefranck: smartasshat: beefranck: Unpopular opinion. Instant, overblown outrage. Long-winded, overly-personal and emotional response. Sarcastic derision of everyone involved. Smartass comment, followed by earnest and unnecessarily literal dissection of all previous comments.

And then I retreated to my bed early…
