- Retra 12y agoHow could you reasonably expect me to anticipate your irritability? You've irritated me by failing to see obvious moral indignation, but I wouldn't bother to complain about it. (I'll complain about pettiness, though.) As it turns out, the person I quoted said exactly what I wanted to say. It doesn't need elaboration. >It's a complaint at people being lazy in making arguments. Godwin's law is a very lazy way to make that argument, I would expect.
