    Likewise, PETA was also around long before social media.

    Yeah, and they sued like hell for years to get the peta.com URL away from the People Eating Tasty Animals guy. Fuck PETA.

    My new favorite meme on this is the idea that "good" parents would've immediately jumped into the pen, gotten the kid out of harm's way, and fought the gorilla themselves.

    That's at least a different take on this. I wonder if I could have in that situation. Worked OK in Anchorman.

    Well, sure, if you bring your dog who knows the gorilla's cousin and can talk him down....

    That's not somebody's best work at writing a headline. At least I hope not.
