This intensive Talmudic analysis of Kavanaugh’s yearbook references is getting bizarre. Slang terms evolve, teenage inside jokes are often multi-layered and inscrutable to outsiders: just seems like a really trivial fixation when there are so many legitimate reasons to oppose him

Some of these pop culture references could've been twisted and contorted, and then layered with meaning specific to his jerkish little friend group. I agree that in aggregate he's painted a misrepresentative picture of himself, but litigating individual references seems crazy.

Hair-splitting, meaning exceedingly precise evaluation of claims, is exactly what’s needed here to ascertain the truth.
