Whoo, another out of context thread.

In the very same sentence I admitted I wasn't an expert on the very specific subject that was brought up and looking for more information. No where did I suggest that my brief Wikipedia-ing made any argument or invalidated his.

In short, go fuck yourself.

Take a class, or read a book, on subject X.

Get on the Internets and act like you're a expert on subject X.

5/26/2010 11:42:03 AM

A box that contains soap

lets derail this thread with a discussion of religion

5/26/2010 1:32:39 PM

references to talking about religion in a topic that has the word "Christianity" or "Mosque" as derailment.

How about the one where someone gets all butthurt in an argument and rather than responding to the argument they take a quote out of context and whines about it in a new thread? I see that one happen a lot... o wait.

I mean, I won't even begin to claim to know anything about what was being discussed when the wikipedia line came out, and I will admit I've used that particular site before, but...

...I mean, come on, hearing it spelled out like that is pretty funny.

rawr is dinosaur for i love you

5/27/2010 2:15:56 AM

Should I have said googling? At least I was citing my source, right?

5/27/2010 8:44:45 AM

If you bothered to do even minimal research before talking about something it puts you miles above most of the other soapbox posters. You don't have to know everything, you just have to know how to find it and process it.
