on a more serious note, Sredni, can you clarify your standpoint here? Cause i don't want to be rude, but it seems like you're accusing Anonus of pedantry, when by the same logic CA's complaint would be meaningless?
There is a difference between getting annoyed when people assume that two news outlets nominally owned and distributed by the same company must have the same political slant and correcting someone for not getting the somewhat byzantine terminology right when referring to the entertainment branch of a company (or more particularly its television entertainment branch).
i think we must have interpreted Anonus' post differently, i didn't see it as a correction so much as a clarification. It wasn't obvious to me what you meant.
You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
I think the miscommunication was further compounded by the unintentional ambiguity of the original thread title
