Noted science expert Joyce Carol Oates absolutely BUTCHERS a simple Hindenburg analogy

In one of her typical rambling tweets, Joyce Carol Oates tried to use a Hindenburg analogy about lies or something. At any rate, her analogy went horribly wrong.

Lies are the helium holding aloft our Hindenberg slow-drifting across the sky & blotting out our light.

One is the loneliest number. It is also the atomic number of the elemental gas that held the Hindenburg aloft: HYDROGEN, not helium, genius https://t.co/cyyQJudhfn

Do you have editors who can research things before you comment on them, cause you need a little help https://t.co/3Dz1owK444
