Starting from the assumption that I'm right, and that the effort required to convince someone they are wrong will be more work than can ever be justified, I tend to mischief. The majority of people lack the comprehension to even know when they're wrong - but I don't need to tell you that. I've often felt that we share a very similar mindset and a strikingly similar disdain for wilful ignorance.
