    This guide is worthless. This guide is funny.

    This guide is worthless, but it’s funny.

    The value in this worthless guide is in its comedy.

      The value in this comedy is in its’ worthlessness.

    I was in a band during the MySpace days. We got a comment one day: “You sock.”

    Was it a typo? Did they mean suck, or rock? Only one letter away from both and those letters are pretty close on the keyboard. Schrodinger’s Judgement if you will.

    I still think about that comment from time to time.

    It annoys me that this isn’t just a funny comic. I know some 60+ year old folks who pretty much only talk like that, thinking they’ve eaten wisdom with a spoon, purely based on life experience. Except that they’re not actually saying anything.

      There are two kinds of apologetics arguments. The direct flawed and the same ones but ambiguous. Peterson is the latter.

      I swear someone could post a dog sneezing and there will always be a, “Capitalism is at fault” comment followed by someone trying to introduce Arch Linux.

        And I wouldn’t have it any other way. ❤️

      In Romanian we have a saying: Dacă tăceai filozof rămâneai. Translated: If you kept your mouth shut, you would still be a philosopher.

        In English we have “It’s better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than open it and remove all doubt.””

    Never be afraid of confrontation but also don’t enjoy it.

    Tbh, I think this might actually work. People can take it either way and will usually take it the way they want it to sound.
