Surviving the /qa/ coaltalogue - Day 40 - The gems among gems
I've gained some more perspective on the whole community and /qa/. Learning is a matter of questioning and DEBUNKING your own ways of thinking and asking more questions than answering them, if that makes sense. For example, I've become more welcoming of 'cado's revoltingly disgusting asshole. It can derail any thread and that's awesome. At least the asshole's not as bad anymore.
Is it possible to take things seriously on an unserious website without being mad all the time? I've somewhat let go of the changes I wanted to see. THOUGH I have no way of knowing if the mods think this way too.
