No, you're not entitled to your opinion

Post by J T »

This mini-essay is awesome:
http://theconversation.edu.au/no-youre- ... inion-9978

It hits on a pet peeve of mine: people that think their "right to their opinion" means they don't have to agree with the facts of reality.

Is the Australian Girlfriend your country's version of "My girlfriend in Canada"?

Haha as a Maine resident I heard the "my girlfriend lives in Canada" thing all the time growing up.

One of my buddies actually did date a Canadian girl. She turned out to be his cousin.

This thread needs more relativism.

And it also needs less.
