Building on quicksand

An IRC, erm, dispute :) has just reminded me of one of my personal pet peeves. People who will argue a position really strongly when they have no idea of whether or not they're actually right. Is it just me that finds this infuriating?

Some of these people have the good grace to do a 180 when they realise they're talking complete shit, but others will just go on and on, arguing their position despite having no evidence to defend it and you having plenty to refute it. I'm confused about how anyone can do this and not feel really daft at the same time.

(slightly tidied copy of the IRC conversation which provoked this post - no statements by either me or hellsatan have been removed, just part/join/unrelated stuff)

Back to old mobile number...

My ex-employer seems to have finally realised that I'm still abusing their phone, and has stopped it sending text messages. This seems like a diplomatic time to stop using it to make calls too, so from this moment on I'm back to my old phone number.

Anyone on my friends list can find the number in my memories, under 'Contact Details'.

I wouldn't change a single thing. Well. Maybe one...

Dangerously interesting looking meme spotted in meowpurrr's journal:

Anonymously (or not, if you like) give one thing you'd like to change about me, and one thing you'd like to stay the same.

Heh. Well I thought it was funny anyway...

This is a pretty good blonde joke.
