It has amused me to no end that we live in a time when we can develop communities around amazingly obscure interests, but people still believe that preferences are objective. If you didn't like the Sopranos, c'est la vie. If you're an emacs guy, hey, that's cool, too. I'll never understand why we keep communicating under the guise of, "My opinion is a fact."

It's ironic that in a world of nigh infinite communities and interests, you can still be wrong about what you're interested in.
