    "The best way to spot an idiot? Look for the person who is cruel."

    Good advice when encountering trolls whose basic schtick is to claim
    that they are smarter than you, and will call you names to prove it.

    The meaure of a human being is the way that s/he treats those who can
    offer him/her nothing (or words to that effect, many sources). Loot and
    money are now god. Must we not forget that the equality we are born with
    is that of opportunity to become human beings, strictly on merit.

    Ain't but five things in life
    Worth fighting for,
    Namely these four:
    Sex, loot, and the freedom
    To pursue high ideals!
