Wow. You're not very bright, are you? There was no slur, numbskull. First, it's not always about you. Second, people with a martyr complex can be full of sound and fury, too.

It's not what Webb wrote, it's the language he used to write it. If you've seen the South Park episode in question, it wasn't Garrison's subject matter (which was heterosexual) it was the language he used (which was gay).

But I understand if South Park is too subtle for you.

You wrote, "There was no slur, numbskull."

Bold talk, coming from a guy crouched anonymously over his keyboard. Personally, I refrain from flame war name-calling and spiteful ad hominems no matter how heated the argument becomes, since it comes off as cowardly.

You didn't address the Milton, Dante, 'window to the soul' counterargument, of course, and that 'Garrison' slur had nothing to do with Webb or his writing style; it was directed at me.

Is that all you got?
