You are one of those people that get avoided at parties, aren't you?

The irony here is that people who say stuff like this are the most insufferable ones at parties. The type of guy who smugly butts into a conversation with some unoriginal insult and doesn't elaborate.

I love talking to people capable of a nuanced conversation whether I agree with them or not. They read the article, formed an opinion, and expressed their issue in an understandable way. What's not to like?
