I recently got involved into some heated debated on the net on the blog of some guy that I deem to be egocentric to the point that his reasoning is being obfuscated by his own ego.

The debate is not closed yet, but it was interesting to argue in a blog's commentary context. Here are a few things I learned from this:

• A person's blog is a person's home: get ready to have to argue against him or her supporters.. which is basically all of them because..
  • Most people following someone's personal blog are supporters
  • Most against the blog's owner aren't going to criticize him on his own blog, especially when supporters are already active
  • Some sort of mob is created at some point you will be reminded how many (biased) people are against you
• Human spoken and written language can be interpreted in many ways. Holy wars are still being fought because of different interpretations of some ancient fiction ! (read: The Bible)
• Italians are very proud people (it's an Italian blog). They are very proud but not very self-critical and hardly ever efficient.
