The comments section of any — any — Yahoo News story is a hellscape of bizarro and misogynistic hot takes.

Whatever you do, don’t click on the Sports Illustrated swimsuit pieces. Any faith you still have in humanity will die like a jellyfish in the sun.

The recent announcement that Noah Baumbach and Greta Gerwig have finally gotten married brought out the trolls en masse.

Seriously, people have nothing better to do than spew hatred at celebrities? Do they think the celebrities are actually reading their comments?

Yes, I’m sure Greta Gerwig, the hottest director on the planet, is cut to the quick by your scathing, “Who?”

Your wit is truly unparalleled.

Somebody else said something about Gerwig’s children with Baumbach being condemned to Hell.

Nice.

But I love the people who don’t actually intend to be trolls — let’s call them the Terminally Sincere.
