Interesting anecdote about a work of fiction, but what does it have to do with anything?
- rurp 2y agoIt seems pretty clearly related to the post it is a reply to.
- adamrezich 2y agoDrawing a moral equivalency to some random event in some random contemporary work of fiction as a means of moralizing isn't some kind of awesome megadunk “own” or anything—it's actually pretty lame.
- thfuran 2y agoWhy do you think it was attempting to be anything of the sort?
- unethical_ban 2y agoGuy 1 jokes about how he's so confident in himself he drives a minivan. Person 2 says "ha that reminds me of a character in a story". It's two people joking in a subthread.
- jakedata 2y agoThe comment is referring back to "not compensating for anything". Choosing to keep a balding head and not caring what other people think is a power move when having a full head of hair becomes trivial.
- maxerickson 2y agoIt's kind of entertaining that both are vanity.
