I enjoyed your comment and I hate the Pats (sad Jets fan, here), but who has ever argued that the Pats’ success proves they didn’t cheat? That seems too dumb for even a day laborer from Revere. Sub-Fitzian in its stupidity, if you will.

I’ve always noticed that I get a little blue in the fall and winter, and then snap right back every spring. I thought I suffered from Seasonal Affective Disorder.

I agree that “hipster” is overused (same goes for “bro”), but it’s apt in this case.
