I tip my biretta o{]:¬) to Mark Shea and his fine blog for the following. In a good natured way he pointed out a blog which parodies his own.
Also, he links to a very funny lampoon blog called Lispers in the Woggia. Do check it out. Alas, I can’t get an RSS feed to work on the later.
Good satire, as opposed to mere invective, can have a dimension of charity woven through it. Good satire is crafted to have a corrective impact. What makes it funny is the fact that it remains rooted in the truth. So long as charity is kept in mind, satire is not a bad thing.
I agree about satire. And so I wonder, are you pro- or anti-Diogenes?
Are you suggesting that the inimitable Diogenes is behing Lispers? The style is much like.
I rather enjoy Diogenes and find his comments to be apt more often than not.
