One risked frostburn at this Heartburn 😛 Beautiful ice heart was the ice luge for the evening (pour shots through the icy heart to chill them before consumption)
Full set of photos (the few I took before relaxing) is here.
Unless you just got online yesterday, I’m sure you have seen an example of classic internet forum discussion turned argument, usually aided via “trolls” just trying to push buttons and cause reactions. I’ve seen it often and participated (sometimes honorably, sometimes stooping to the levels of others in blame/accusations) rarely, but only once in a while is there one that really gets under my skin.
And I actually find it fascinating, even when my blood is boiling and my patience is tried. Every time it turns into a circular discussion where it’s obvious neither side will budge or admit any wrong doing, and the tactics are often the same low blows whether the discussion is religion, discrimination, politics…
I’d like to share some facts and analysis of one of these that occurred yesterday/today (and may still be ongoing). The subject matter is really irrelevant, as I want to discuss (rationally) some of the tactics used by both myself and the other participants.
It’s long – I can’t figure out what to cut out of it now so I’ll put it behind a link.
