I assume Brad DeLong took umbrage at this because the target is a former colleague of his, but if that’s the case it’s a feeble excuse for an inability to take a joke. Unlike him, whatever diseases I might have don’t appear to have affected my funny bone.
Oh and DeLong appears to have deleted the first commenter on the post who had the temerity to call him out on his humorlessness. Is that what passes for “Grasping Reality With Both Hands”?
