Seemly, it is the same for ignorant, abrasive people, who happily acknowledge their pettiness and then continue on with their quest to smother all rational thinking with their vacuous ranting.

Doesn't mean you still can't learn something. At least they didn't kill you. Point is, every cloud has silver lining if you look. I think that it is a rather good saying to remember myself.

Duh! It's a thread he once started to collect stupid sayings like that. He even posted a variant of the first entry.
