The second or third most popular language of all time? God forbid lol

  Popular does not mean good. Tobacco smoking is also popular.

    Do you think this is clever? For a metaphor to be relevant to a discussion it has to be fitting, not just a dunk.
    • xigoi 10mo ago
      It’s not a metaphor. I was giving a counterexample to your implied claim that popularity is an indicator of quality.
      • kanaffa12345 10mo ago
        That wasn't an implied claim because we're not discussing metrics for judging quality.

        You're right. It's everyone's least-favorite gotcha. Reminds me of this: Waiter: "How is everything?" Customer: "Great!" Waiter, disgusted: "Even war?"
