It’s Just a Joke
BuzzFeed’s Editor-in-Chief, Ben Smith, seems to be suggesting, in his argument with marine biologists* over a failed parody of shark hysteria, that smart people have bad senses of humor.

*Identifiable as folks with or working toward a biology PhD who suffer from the delusion that they are pirates.
