See something wrong with this picture?  Some wacko religious right org decides to attack the gay couple on the right, and they do it by substituting the pic on the left, of a different gay couple.  Then it comes out that no, that's not what the couple really looks like, everything is okay because the real couple concerned, they're actually beautiful normal-looking people.

See something wrong here? The couple on the right, they don't actually look like the couple on the left, so it was wrong to attack them.  But if they had, everything would have been fine: sure, go ahead, hate the freaks, that's the message they're sending here.

I just levelled up wilwheaton. He posted to his blog an older vignette he'd written, and I *winced* at the dialogue punctuation. He mentioned polishing several of these older pieces, so I thought, WTH, he might be one of those writers whose eyes just glide past punctuation goofs, so I let him know there were some issues. See the message thread, and the responses to my followup.
