Why do we have to dwell on meaningless issues?

...are you freaking serious?
Yeah, OK, my definition of nitpicking is not universal. Is that what you were looking for? Was it worth half a thread of bullshit? Do you think maybe we have just made my point? No, probably not.
Screw it, my message of peace is futile, let's just all continue to be assholes to each other.

I'm not looking for anything. And it was far from 'half a thread' it was barely two pages.

I can debate (or nitpick if you'd prefer) and not be an asshole. They're not mutually exclusive.
