Which one of us gets to be Chuck Barris? Not to mention Jamie Farr? I call dibs on the Unknown Comic. 😉
Sometimes I wonder if we don’t hurt our message a bit by being so hostile to PT/SE lovers. I know I was a big SE apologist for a long time before I realized I was objectively wrong, but it did take some time and convincing.
People come in here knowing the name and gist of the site, and they should expect a reaction if they start a fuss. I’ve made the analogy before of going into a sports bar where there is Green Bay Packers memorabilia all over the walls, and blurting out “Packers suck!”.
Nobody here hangs out at a pro SE/PT forum and tries to convert people, at least I hope not.
