I'm not even the original sage guy, but I also thought this thread was bullshit. I typed out something longer a bit earlier, got irritated and trashed the response, then got irritated that this thread was still on the front page and wrote this response.

>Seems like everyone's a pseudo-intellectual these days, amirite? Where is the line drawn?
My line? When a person babbles out nonsense like this:

One can safely disregard anyone who rejects the primacy of the past and drabs ancient Greek philosophy in baggy tie-dye clothes, twists its locks into a long greasy ponytail, glues patches of nasty hair to its chest, stuffs marijuana blunts in its mouth and hangs a giant gaudy peace sign on its neck. Not that there weren't more problems with what you wrote, but that proud ignorance was what pissed me off the most.
