Just for attention

Jonas Nagnie

Hey, everybody! Look at me, guess who I am! I think that, just because I’m a college student, I know everything in the world!

No matter how uninformed I am about some subject, I will write to a public forum just to stir up controversy!

I really want to get people to respond to what I write so that I can write back into this section and try and make them look like an idiot just to feel better about myself! Please, please take offense with what I have to say!

Oh, and don’t worry, I won’t use proper rhetoric or argument formation when I respond to you.

I’ll just make inane, sweeping generalizations that do nothing but show the fallacies in my arguments!

Seeing as how this paper belongs to an institute of higher learning and how this column is to represent the minds of the individuals therein, it would follow that the opinions represented here would show high-level thinking and formation.

However, as a matter of course, many of the submissions here are not taking many things into account.

There has been a great deal of response to a few individuals that find it necessary to compulsively write to this paper.

Here’s some advice to everyone out there that disagrees with them: Don’t respond. Attention is all they desire.

No matter how many times you soundly refute their arguments, they are just going to disagree with you. Don’t give them the satisfaction.
