4:40p - The 'Imitation is the Sincerest Form of Wankery' Prescription.
If, in a wank, a poster defends his or her wanky, asshatish, and/or generally illogical and ineffective debating techniques by saying 'I'm just like [Character X] in [Fandom]*,' he or she automatically loses the argument and will be forced to suffer fools while listening to happy hardcore.

* See, for example, Gregory House in House, MD and Severus Snape in Harry Potter; see also Brian Kinney from Queer as Folk (US).

Comparisons to David Sedaris similarly render a poster's argument null and void, with the added punishment of being forced to suffer fools while working as an elf at Macy's.
