The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

Me: "Woops, sorry, that was my bad. I'll do better next time I promise."
My friends: "No worries mate, we all screw up from time to time. Thanks for owning it."
The Internet: "YOU CALL THAT AN APOLOGY?! HOW DARE YOU INSULT MY INTELLIGENCE! HERE'S A LIST OF ALL THE THINGS YOU NEED TO DO IN ORDER TO EARN MY RESPECT AGAIN, YOU FOOL, YOU UTTER RUBE, YOU COMPLETE IMBECILE!!!"

I’m confused. I thought that combination of words was illegal …. on the internet.

Nope I might take an embarrassingly long time to get there, but I’ll generally own up when I’m wrong.

If people would now just admit to the superiority of pineapple pizza with bbq sauce, peace in our time could be achieved.

"I don't see what the problem is saying your favorite pizzeria serves cafeteria style slices. I mean, we all liked that style when we were in school!"

The trouble is, when you say "This pizzeria has Hawaiian-style pizza on the menu," some people will hear you say "That pizzeria only serves Hawaiian-style pizza." And others still will only hear "That pizzeria will force you to eat their Hawaiian-style pizza."

You don't have to eat everything on the menu, folks. In fact, it sounds miserable to even try.

"That pizzeria is very pinappley on purpose and you have to work hard not to have it on your slice." doesn't feel that open to interpretation?

No, it's saying you're right. People love to argue and will argue any point.

I know! I am still mystified that, "Snarf is the boss of you" has yet to catch on as a global of governance.

All systems of authority break down when faced with the same intractable problem:

That time at the buffet when they bring out the crab legs.

Chaos.

Anarchy.

Bedlam.

Abandon all hope ye who enter here.

Zeno: Pineapple pizza is terrible, and you're a bad person for enjoying it.

Achilles: Wait, what? I don't get it. I like pineapple pizza!

Zeno: Yeah, well I tried pineapple pizza once and dough wasn't cooked, and they used ketchup instead of marinara, and worst of all ... it was Chicago Deep Dish.

Achilles: Look, maybe you had a bad experience with that particular pizza ... I mean, I'm not even sure that you can call a casserole a pizza, but that has nothing to do with the topping! What about you- you only eat pizza topped with anchovies.

Zeno: That's right! And even though not everyone can appreciate the joy that is anchovies, they are the best pizzas.

Achilles: Okay, but what if you had an anchovy pizza with uncooked dough, ketchup marinara, served deep-dish?

Zeno: That's unpossible. Only pineapple pizza can be bad.
