Disregard Instruction Manual: step 1

I cannot abide conformism. It stings me to see mediocrity for sale at all levels, but just because the market bell curve treats us like lemmings, should we accept this?

I'm asking questions, not providing answers.

It might seem like I'm putting forward the answers you crave, but that just because I know what I am talking about, not because I'm better than anyone, but because i have a knowledge base built by sheer virtue of constant research and analysis into my chosen field.

feel free to agree or disagree as you wish. Scepticism makes for a healthy dialogue. But be prepared to back up your statements regardless...I am not kindly disposed to misinformation.

I will not tolerate racism, gender bashing or other forms of hybridised intolerance. If you're into that you can just fuck right off.

that's it. the only rule. now disregard. enjoy.
