Nothing is more amusing than when someone can't handle an opposing opinion without writing a goodbye letter to the internet. Seen it on irc, forums, and at long last, I,A. Adios to you too, you'll be sorely missed.
HEY, i'm on record as having issued such public challenges and discussions for months now! And being as i'm [apparently] the only "open" commentor here, i would certainly be willing to engage in such a public forum - as IA is suggesting.
I think this is a great idea. Open forum IN PERSON!!?!?! Kudos. And I don't think people would chicken-shit out. There's a lot of opinionated folks, with plenty of chips on their shoulders that would love to argue with strangers. (I would go for the show).
"Internet is stupid!" says guy on Internet.
"I'm leaving!" says guy on Internet who will never really leave the Internet.
"Anonymous posters are cowardly!" says anonymous poster.
"Anything you say in response somehow proves my point!" says guy whose point is silly.
It's not a bad idea, it's just hilarious and stupid that someone is complaining about people anonymously complaining on a website that was made specifically for that reason. I would love to see the verbal cat fights that would inevitably come about due to a meeting of the A,I minds.
we could all show up at a bar, each of us with a fresh, typed I,A in hand.....then we would mix them up and each of us would read whichever one we randomly picked from the pile.....
then we would vote on who we think wrote it and who we think the reader is.
it would all be kind of friendly and fun for the first couple of hours.....
Chico: It wasn't me. I like the anonymity of this site. If I wanted to argue with people I could Identify, I'd argue with people on Facebook. But I like my friends. So instead, I argue with people like you, because I won't be sad if you stop talking to me.
rofl.
not tits -- ovum.
'if they even have the balls or ovum...'

TO MAH FACE!

then there would be a fight, or three.
