"This tragic event confirms all my preconceived notions" Someone wrote a short ironic essay - perhaps after 9-11 - to the effect that once again, the writer's political views have been shown to be true in every respect. I think I first saw the essay on MetaFilter. Anyone know what I'm talking about? I live in the Denver area and I would like to read the essay after last night's shootings. Thanks.

I was all ready to identify this for you (as I did when this was an AskMe) but Theophile got there first.

Obscure Reference,

Which AskMe was that?

This one.

Thanks, Obscure Reference. I don't seem to have permission to read d-squared's blog.

... but I presume it's Dan Davies, which is active on Twitter at @dsquareddigest.

"Which is active"? Um, "who is active". Argh.
