Beat down on any (political or otherwise) opponent with it in lieu of actual arguments. Funny that it happens to you.<br /><br />Anyhow, best of luck with both health- and award-issues.

They basically manufactured any fact that would back up their arguments and got called on it.<br /><br />Cam sided with his friends, but usually does it in a very Cam way: Support your friends unquestioningly, ignore any disagreement, no matter how polite or rational. His game design reflects these narrow horizons.<br /><br />But once in a while he gets his blood up and just can't resist the opportunity to shit on the folks who've poisoned the garden of smug.Zak Sabbathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08812410680077034917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2638993969706011706.post-71327421589464488752015-06-29T21:59:24.469-07:002015-06-29T21:59:24.469-07:00Congrats!
