I turned it into a snarl in my own LJ, then got called away and didn't get to kill the comment over here.
And really, what I said here wasn't intended as snarky. It's more the despair of middle age and long memory watching the world repeating itself.

Actually, I did that
it's not unexpected
It's alrighty really.
