Asterisks...
*Okay, I tried to be gentle there, but fuck "comfort", as an argument altogether.
Would you accept some Wall Street apologist saying that the robber-baron crooks who crashed the economy draw solace and comfort from their money, and it's mean of you to want to rip their comfort away?
No, fuck off with that.
And, while I'm on the track of kicking down emotion-based arguments, I gotta go add an asterisk to something that bugged me in part 7.
** Shit, the rant is there, but the videos have been killed.
Gonna have to fix that...
