Online or off is much the common thing.
This doesn't mean one is a fool or jerk.
If just a little knowledge seems to bring
Desired results, why plumb into it more?
We all have areas where this is how
We function. Take the Facebook fluff: before
Today most of us knew not that, e'en now
So many others still use search engines
To find a login screen, and so did fall
Into a trap that no one set. Gremlins
Did not hijack them. Do not mock their call
For help; Each cry is from one who might know
Much that you don't, if you'd but ask them so.

There shallow Draughts intoxicate the Brain,
And drinking largely sobers us again.
