Small, but mindboggling. During a [info]fandom_wank-ing of FFXI's gil controversy, somebody compares gil trading to slavery. Most of us recognize the stupidity and offensiveness of this hyperbole.

[info]chikane doesn't. Even when many people explain otherwise.

I propose the new Godwin's for Black History:
By trying to equate black oppression--which involved millions of people being taken away from their countries and carted across the sea, where many died or got horrible diseases, and then were used as free laborers and were more mistreated than animals and then, even after being freed, being basically treated the same, with hundreds of years of oppression, hatred, and prejudice thrust onto them simply because of the color of their skin--to anything else, you automatically FAIL AT LIFE. And the arguement.

Definitely sounds like a good addition for [info]jurisimprudence.

I would also like to add a law which states that if your response to a carefully reasoned, logical, and well-thought-out argument is to tell people to go back and reread what you wrote, you lose at life, the internets, and everything.

What the hell, we can call it Chikane's Law.

*g* It's rare that I get that man back, it really is.

And I'm sure he'll traumatize the next ALT after me. I don't think it'll *ever* get old for him.

We've been well overdue for Tubman's Law as well. That should have been created immeadietly after Godwin. XD

Srsly. The ability of people to overdramatize the importance of fandom concerns never fails to boggle my mind.

I'm just glad I got most of my wank done before I was of FW age. O.o It's mostly out of my system by now and I've grown up. That's always a plus. XD

I'm glad I got most of mine done before the internets existed. (There are advantages to being old.)

What about comparing it to the time the coffee shop was out of vanilla syrup for my latte? Surely that's JUST as bad.
