  "...except this one.", right? ;) (Certainly you anticipated this response.) Kidding aside, Fortini's tongue-in-cheek answer is the best one to such silliness. Certainly advice is neither absolute or contextless. I'd say that to suggest otherwise, especially in online discussion, is to act in bad faith. Certainly "considered" is already doing the job of pointing out it's an opinion, not natural law.
