Arguing with people on the internet. It's the reason they invented the internet, and now that they've done away with the entrance exam, they let just about anybody in.
As you know, arguing on the internet is serious stuff, and it is vital importance that you do not allow the other party to come out on top, especially if they are a nobber.
Regretfully, there are times, when it is simply not worth the candle to argue, and it is for the best to just switch off your machine, walk away, and shut the door quietly behind you. But how do you know when to give it up? The warning signs are simple:
FIIIIIGHT!
- The only insult they know is spelled "FAGET"
- Their user name (if younger than 18) is "Belieber100639367"
- Their user name (if UK) is "Common Sence"
- Their user name (if US) is "ObummerIsACommie"
- ALL CAPS BANDIT. And you know - if they allowed you to choose fonts, it would be ALL CAPS Comic Sans, the Font of Champions
- The First Amendment of the US Constitution is quoted at you
- After the First Amendment has been quoted at you, the subsequent threat of the FBI and/or CIA
- At least I can spell FAGET, YOU FAGET!
- You are on YouTube, the sixth circle of Hell
- They are sitting next to you on the sofa, and all priveleges are on the verge of being withdrawn

I TOTALLY PWNED U, U FAGET!
I (don't) hate to be a pedant, but Comic Sans is a TYPEFACE, not a font. This is actually more important that than the rotational direction of a bogroll; sorry, but there it is.
Walk away Scary Duck dude, walk away.
XKCD = win.
That is all.
Rule 14, my man. Rule 14. Do not feed the trolls. Especially the ones that don't know they are trolls. And NEVER EVER feed them after midnight.
The problem with all these rules is that, after about 9:30 pm (which it is where I am at the moment) and a few glasses of cheap, cask wine, you completely forget about rules.
I always remember the next morning and rush to my computer to see what damage I've done, and what I can undone (undo?).
Actually, sometimes the worst thing about leaving comments after 9:30 is the fact I can't read the bloody captcha words.
elgions nar... f)(& it.
I ignore the rules completely, just because it's fun to annoy people. Oh, how I love to annoy people! Especially those who can spell FAGET. :)
What about people who can't spell "privileges", you FAGET?
