Re: New debate tactic: citing articles that you, yourself, added to Wikipedia.
[quote name="a1"]God damn it. I deleted my post. Basically, I was going to say that I had the same hopes as John, but later in life, between the ages of 17 and 19. I thought I'd write something beautifully descriptive that would contain a new message, that would point people toward truer, healthier values and that my youth would be the gimmick that propelled the whole thing to epic proportions. One book was about me being a freshman at a rural college, but I coudln't come up with a plotline. The other was about me and my friends walking around Chicago, feeling pleasantly detached and on top of the world, until we come upon a riverside storage shed inside of which there's something amazing. The most amazing thing I could think of was a girl who was born unconsciously beautiful, (like Maranda is to Jon), but who'd fallen into drug use and poverty and the sobering implications. I stopped that one at "he opened the shack door." Anyway, good luck, John. Kthor sucks and isn't funny.[/quote]
