> The border between hilarious and disgusting is sometimes tenuous

Bit of a digression but just because sometimes it causes friction, particularly amongst people who think laughter is an inappropriate response to serious situations:

I don't think they're mutually exclusive. I find the comments themselves distasteful. That the comments exist at all is quite funny to me, because they're essentially non-sequiturs. The idea that someone would read the linked article and decide this was an appropriate context for a tirade about student loans is absurd (and therefore funny) to me.

Sort of like if we were reading Einstein's biography and someone launched into a ten paragraph essay about how all children should be killed, simply because the biography starts with Einstein's childhood.
