"Am I evil, or is killing patents just plain fun?" Neither. You just like false dichotomies.

Neither. You just like false dichotomies.
- pbhjpbhj 12y agoWhilst we're being pedantic (are we ever not?) that construction doesn't present a dichotomy it's just a more lyrical way of saying "I like killing patents". Am I evil, or is pedantry just plain fun?
- rowyourboat 12y agoOf course pedantry is fun. Somehow, the way the title is worded grates me. It manages to imply that anybody who does not find killing patents "fun" is evil. That's the false dichotomy: Either you find killing patents fun, or you are evil.
