You talking to me?

1. Read the thread: I voted for The Simpsons.

2. Read my post: I was talking about the basic absurdity of "All (blank) are (blank)" statements.

3. Doc Midnight's post? Though he's a nice guy, a great writer, and we have mutual friends, that post was ignorant. He was basically just riffing on the concept that "All literature buffs are pretentious goateed pseudo-intellectuals who hang out in coffee shops." Now I could come right back and say, "Oh, sure...planting your a$$ on the sofa with some chips and watching the History channel or CNN is much better for you than discussing Kafka," but that would be equally ignorant.

4. The phrase "you people" really makes me f***ing angry.

5. Hey, no offense, just stating my view.

6. And I still think the Simpsons is the best show on TV: social satire that just happens to be really funny.

7. There is no number 7.

8. No wife, no horse, no moustache...always anger and derision.

9. Hail Eris.

10. All statements are true in some sense, false in some sense, meaningless in some sense, true and false in some sense, false and meaningless in some sense, and true, false, and meaningless in some sense. So spake Sya Syadasti.

11. "But this one goes to 11!"
