I don't know about them being plural, but he likes Werner Herzog and that's good enough to carry him a long way.
I seriously have gotta see that movie
He has a couple.
does he mean bad lieutenant or does he think herzog is a movie himself? but yeah herzog is the motherfucking truth.
um and re: guy who asked me what i meant by wiki apologists
i just mean that i really think it's funny that there are people who are constantly defending wikipedia as this really great academic resource. like the one dude was like "aiyyo it's all or nothing: free speech or dictatorship" and i mean it was sort of a stupid point, but to respond with like WP:ANARCHY is pretty stupid too.
and do i think wiki does something wrong? yes. there is an xkcd strip on the wiki entry about itself. that's "something"
edit:
"Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia that can be edited by anyone and that aims to provide free encyclopedic information to its readers"
the fact that the majority of people think wikipedia is "there" is a very big part of what is wrong with wikipedia.
I'm not too happy them being able to just up and ban an entire group from editing, especially since they've touted wikipedia as this thing "for the people, by the people" but I guess if they have explicitly stated rules and they're broken, they're not exactly in the wrong.
I'm going to have to side with Wikipedia here as the lesser evil, but yeah, they aren't ACTUALLY the people's encyclopedia. They are the encyclopedia of facts written by pedants who have no lives.

I have no fucking clue what you're trying to say
The words are in english but I can only assume it's a tenth or twelfth language

I think you are assuming that all these people take wikipedia as the be all end all or knowledge
this isn't true
No-one really thinks it is a great academic resource, it is just handy to have around
wikipedia has no editorial board, so there's no real purpose to claiming academic integrity when nobody's appointed to make sure that the integrity actually exists
wikipedia made school reports so much easier, then they were all "duuuuuuh you can't cite wikipedia as a source' so we just started citing the wiki references.

Yeah, if you don't you'll wake up the next morning with a nasty case of Thetans.
"y..yeah, man, shit was cash"
Thetans are hard to get rid of and even harder to hide

because internet arguments are stupid and Wikipedia articles are slightly smarter than anyone involved in an internet fight
The sum of internet knowledge is slightly greater than its parts
Wikipedia is as good as any encyclopedia, especially on major topics
Which is to say, an overview and by no means comprehensive
with a comprehensive list of cited sources that are far more reliable and academically recognized
kpop appreciation station i also like to tweet some
Those suckers are exhaustive and well-written.
that most people won't bother to cite
Wikipedia caters to the lazy, citing your work-wise
I've found a detailed description of a ritual to summon Yog Sothoth

On the one hand, I know Lovecraft made up the whole Cthulhu Mythos
On the other hand, saying prayers to madness could prove to have unpleasant effects
All I found was the excerpt from Charles Dexter Ward (my favorite Lovecraft story by the way)
