Something for the fandom_wank people...
Jul. 19th, 2003 02:13 pmI'd post it there directly, but I don't have a Journelfen code, and no real motivation to get one. Usually I just cruise by when I'm bored and shake my head at the wankerness of people. And I don't just mean those being fandom_wanked, either. ;)
From [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] (the writer of the Ozy and Millie webcomic):
The number one thing holding back decent debate is that generally no debater is open to changes of opinion. We all just think we're going to convince the other person. And if both parties are thinking like that, debate is just, well, a two-way wank-fest, right?
I call upon all of you to be dispassionate, fair, and as articulate as you can manage, rather than being wankers.
