to your average wiki editor, yes

So you're working out and getting buff so you are strong to do what?

"Getting women" as if they are objects to do what? gently caress them and forget about it? Some life. "Getting women" improves your social status amongst those who hi-five people for being "playa"s. Who gives a drat about being more social amongst those vapid wastes of food and employment?

Video games are a great way to have fun, and enjoy things that are availible to you in life. Not only this, but the making of a game is an art form - by playing through, say, an RPG, you are treated to a grand story that is just overwhelmingly more fufilling than going out, loving some chick, hi-fiving yourself and calling it a night.

no i threw that together using that old quote and the default unsigned comment thing

there are probably lots of wikipedia editors who feel that way though

a few years back there was some shithead state republican who got himself arrested. i replaced his wiki photo with the mugshot and argued that, being the most recent officially-released government photo of an elected official, the mugshot was valid. people immediately took up the cause and were fighting over it for at least the month i bothered keeping tabs.

i hope you enjoyed the above story about wikipedia.

We've traced the preceding comment... It's coming from inside the wiki. Now an arbitration committee member is coming over right now, just get out of the wiki!!

i spent about a half-hour reverting changes and pushing the "official state photo" claim while watching my stories on the teevee. everything after that was self-sustaining; this was during the run-up to the last election.

as for the current state of the page, i don't actually know. the guy isn't even from my state and the only thing i do remember is that he had a very punchable face.
