Sorry, this is off-topic, but PG on graffiti is simply brilliant:
"In this respect trolling is a lot like graffiti. Graffiti happens at the intersection of ambition and incompetence: people want to make their mark on the world, but have no other way to do it than literally making a mark on the world."
- gkya 10y agoYou didn't have to call me incompetent. Nor was I trolling. I'm really offended by this.
- veddox 10y agoI'm very sorry, gkya, I did not in the least mean to offend you - actually, I wasn't even referring to you! I simply read PG's essay that was linked above and came across this quote that I found really good and wanted to share. It had nothing whatsoever to do with your previous comments (which is why I clearly labeled it as off-topic). In fact, if you scroll to my comments further up in the discussion, you will see that we have a very similar opinion as far as downvoting is concerned. Again, my apologies if I have inadvertently caused offense, I certainly did not mean to.
- gkya 10y agoI appreciate your apology, thank you, and I'm sorry for my confusion, just that in the context I interpreted your comment as if you were referring to me. I've read your comment on the topic too, clearly put. Again, thanks for your kind apology.
