[QUOTE="bloodtide, post: 9250158, member: 6684958"] It's a bit fun to see that most educated people have a set response when they see "their" stuff in content. Almost like they learned it somewhere.... A typical scientist feels personally attacked when some content shows "their science", "their job" and "their life" in some "wrong way". And not only do they get very upset....but they also have the need to tell everyone. They can't even admit to liking a movie, with out saying something like "well......BUT.....everything in the movie is WRONG!" But lots of other groups....like cops for example, can like content....and really not even care if it is 100% real to them. They can say they like a movie no problem.....and have no need to add the "well, but" qualifier. [/QUOTE]
