John
Cheese at Cracked is 39, and starting to recognize the signs of aging. I
can relate to several of these. I don't mind slang terms yet, but I
find that it now takes a lot to impress me.
Eventually,
you reach a point where you have heard virtually every debate point for
every topic ever conceived by man. Nothing anyone says is new. Nothing
anyone says is convincing the other side to "convert" to their line of
thinking. Consider how long debates have been around between atheists
and Christians, legalization and anti-drug groups, pro-lifers and
pro-choicers, Democrats and Republicans, and on and on. So many of the
talking points and debate styles overlap from topic to topic that you
can damn near lip sync to them as they're being said. All debates have
turned into a Nickelback album.
Maybe it says
something about how much older I am that I don't even know what
Nickelback sounds like. But he's got some good points in this list, in
plenty of NSFW language.
