There's no such thing as an adolescent silverback. A silverback is a fully mature dominant male. They don't gain the silver coloration until they are mature, so the entire premise is a contradiction in terms.

Several things can be true at once. We don't have to be all-in on one side or the other of the Snowden affair. I've never understood why people seem so eager to pick a team on this issue.

WTF are you talking about? I see zero evidence that this is what OP is doing. It can't be the case that every time someone asks a question that you don't like, they must be doing so in bad faith. That's a fallacy.

Oh, look at John fucking Von Neumann over here!

Either a square knot or a "granny" knot will work. A lot of people don't know the difference, but it's actually a pretty important distinction in different types of rigging because a square knot is so much stronger and more secure.

It's how the other great apes do it too, which as far as I'm concerned is pretty much the end of the issue. It really is one of those things where there's a right and wrong way to do it.

Double Nickels on the Dime, Minutemen. Also probably the best power trio record ever made. Granted, they only made one more record before D Boon died, but as legendary as he is, Mike Watt has still never done anything as good since.

It's painfully un-self-aware.

Or, you know, it could turn someone away who is honestly ignorant and curious to learn more. But keep being a condescending piece of shit, that'll work out great.

True, but it wasn't always true. In the 1960s and 70s the far left was more violent. Not especially relevant, but it is interesting.
