You're right, they're not equal. But sounding arrogant -- on purpose -- is still kind of a dickly thing to do. It's I'm-making-up-for-a-small-penis behavior, and the world needs less of it.
- tptacek 17y agoHow presumptive of you.
- donaq 17y agoDoesn't the fact that he got downvoted sort of prove his point that writing arrogantly is offensive?
- tptacek 17y agoCareful using the word "vote" and "mean" in the same sentence on Hacker News. =)
- kubrick 17y agoUnclear what I'm presuming. But are you actually saying: 1- the world needs more people who write like arrogant assholes (even if they're not actually assholes) 2- it's better to be pompous than to actually have a conversation Because that's what you're up-voting. In case it's not clear.
