    In other news, Lake Erie is still haunted by ghost pirates that nobody cares about.

      Ugh, classic whataboutism. You’re probably the commenter in every great lakes thread saying, “bUt whAT AbOuT thE laKE eRiE gHOSt PiRatEs?”

      People can care about Lake Michigan and Lake Erie ghost pirates at the same time–this post just isn’t the time and place to center them in the conversation.
