How is that "the worst"? One's feeling of moral superiority and dumping shit on others are not contradictory --except if one's conviction of his moral superiority is wrong. Dumping shit on others does not make you morally inferior (in the same way that they could be), if that's what you suggest. If one is bad-mouthing some rapist, it doesn't mean that he's as morally bad as the rapist because of doing so.
That said, all this "moral" thing is beside the point: what Naggun was utterly convicted of was his _technical_ correctness, which is something completely different.
- pwpwp 15y agoCan you please stop calling him Naggun?
- batista 15y agoWell, if everybody understands that I refer to Naggum, where's the problem? (That's essentially the argument of the "omit semicolons / pro ASI" people -- since browsers grok it, where's the problem with abusing an error checking mechanism with our syntax?) That said, what is it to you? I thought that was his name, probably because phonetically it sounds better in my language, so I misspelled it 2-3 times. Only know I found out it is Naggum. It's not like I did it on purpose, or that I would continue doing it if I knew better, so I find your request absurd.
- ScottBurson 15y agoDumping shit on others does not make you morally inferior You're missing the picture. Naggum dumped on practically everyone. And while he would always argue that he had been provoked because everyone else were such idiots, I think a dispassionate observer would reach a different conclusion. all this "moral" thing is beside the point Ironically, Naggum would not have agreed with you on this point. He made a big deal of it. Oh, and it really is "Naggum" with an "m" -- the HN title is wrong.
