Snacky, someone you've probvably never heard of, created a law.
This is the post he made:
You guys know Godwin's Law, right?
Well, I want a new law. I want a law that says: Whenever two (or more) groups of people are arguing, anywhere on the web* (usenet, mailing lists, message boards, blogs, etc.), inevitably, someone on one side of the argument (regardless of age or gender) will compare the group on the other side to "those bitchy girls who made everyone's life hell in high school."
If I've learned anything at all from Internet Retard Slapfights, that's it.
Additionally: When this happens, if the person who made this comparison is validated with tales of "just how mean the bitchy girls were to ME in high school," the argument is over, and the side making the comparison has lost.
If however, the other side responds with the EXACT SAME COMPARISON, both sides have lost, and the argument should be declared dead for all eternity.
(I know, that last part is wishful thinking.)
So, there's the new law. Call it Snacky's Law, call it The High School Bitches Law, call it The Stop Yer Whining and Move On Law, hug it and pet it and call it George, whatever, but you all should know, I'm putting it into effect as of right now. *g*
*I thought at first this law should be applicable only to Fandom arguments, but I've seen it happen on corners of the web, far, far away from Fandom, so it goes for every internet argument.
