In general, I avoid online comment threads and message boards, except for a few well-moderated spaces, because: rage, alternating with despair over the human race. But there are times when the reptilian part of my brain feels the urge to respond to these jerkbag commenters and their non-logic. Of late, this has been happening most frequently when I come across someone bandying about claims of 1st amendment rights violations when the “violator” is private entity not associated with the government. Thus, I present Logic Llama.
Even if I decide it’s not worth wasting my time on jerkbag commenters, who usually just get even more mouth-frothy when someone points out their lack of logic, I like that I now have a time-saving option featuring a llama. Because llamas rock.

What is that red thing in the llama’s ear?
I’m not sure, Saytchyn. It looks like a tassel, but I don’t know if it has any particular meaning. All I did for this post was look for Creative Commons pictures of llamas with “expressions” I thought fit. 🙂
This llama certainly could be delivering that line.
