dude, it is so obvious that the guy in that picture is all about Slayer, Dio
and Maiden.
but concerning "individuals who seem to embrace a lifestyle culture based on
idm- down to their idm haircuts, their idm clothes, their idm cars, their
idm favorite recipes, their idm favorite beer, etc etc.," i don't understand
how this point is being made by citing up a list of things that don't exist.
the argument is like "there are too many people who live the idm lifestyle!
to prove this, i will cite no examples except for ones that are obviously
not real! idm haircuts and idm cars! there, do you believe me now?" um,...
no.
so wtf? where did this "idm lifestyle" thing come from if you can't even
cite an actual example of what you mean?
and as far as this:
quoted 1 line I think the number of list members who really *are* eating out enormous
> I think the number of list members who really *are* eating out enormous
chunks
quoted 1 line of their lives wringing their hands over this whole issue may be larger
> of their lives wringing their hands over this whole issue may be larger
than you think
well, that's great that you THINK that, but you have basically no support
for this.
isn't it true that the vast majority of list members do not post to the list
regularly?
there are enough legitimate reasons to slag the list, i don't think we need
to make up new ones out of thin air.
