Essay talk:Abby Sunderland story

Ok, I don't know how relevant this article is, but here's the thing.

Usually, I am quite zen about everything. I have become used to conservative viewpoints, I can just scroll conservapedia/fox news/free republic etc and keep my cool, mixed with a sort of boredom and elitist smugness. Half the time I don't even need to read the article since my empathetic conservative brain modelling is so good, I know what they are going to say anyway (so when I do read them, it's mostly to confirm that I was right again)

But sometimes there's some quite small, almost irrelevant things that reminds you exactly how much of a misery based, death worshipping, piece of collectivist anti-western piece of *beep* these people are, that just makes me snap and go ballistic. I mean, seriously, I didn't mind the usual anti-Dawkins blah blah on top of it, I didn't mind the usual anti-Obama whinery under it, but that did the trick. Sen (talk) 18:27, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi. This doesn't really belong in article-space. I'd say essay space, or on WIGO:CP talk. Щєазєюіδ^{Methinks it is a Weasel} 18:37, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

I agree. This just seems like an embiggened WIGO, and the writing style is more suited to essay space. Colonel of Squirrels^{白山羊不山羊。商讨。} 18:45, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Sen, very good essay. ConcernedResident ^{omg ponies!!!} 19:04, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

I like it. Although I agree that the tone and style, as it is now, is not mainspace worthy. It could be CP-space worthy but essay is certainly the best place right now. But pedantry aside, good points, well made etc. etc. Do 16 year old sailors have machismo? ^moral 19:06, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Achievements by teens

I'm on the iPhone at the moment, and I don't want to monkey around with an essay, but could I suggest mentioning the Andy's claim that teens are responsible for far more achievements than evidence would suggest? Their stance seems to run contrary to this. ConcernedResident ^{omg ponies!!!} 19:11, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

It was Karajou who added this maritime news item. Щєазєюіδ^{Methinks it is a Weasel} 19:18, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

My bad. White people and CP sysops all look the same to me. ConcernedResident ^{omg ponies!!!} 19:28, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
