Godwin's law...
PC Nazi. DIE!
Next you'll be arguing that Babe Ruth's number should not be universally retired because it will reduce the significance of Hank Aaron's jersey retirment. I hereby dub that Niwdog's Law.
Erm... huh??
Power Unix ftw?
...
and what??
Your reference to Godwin's law is an attempt to condemn my use of the word Nazi to mean anything other than what it originally meant, i.e. the German's back in WW2. The politically correct (PC) nazis complain that doing so detracts from the true sufferers from the Nazis and degrades the power of the word. Godwin was the person who started the QQing.
My analogy to Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron was due to the fact that the same argument is going on about detracting from the universal jersey retirement of Aaron. The qq'ers are saying that adding another jersey to that mix would detract from what Aaron accomplished and lessen the effect of his jersey retirement.
And, finally, Niwdog is Godwin spelled backward. I was making a joke.
My reference to Godwin's law was just an off the cuff joke... nothing more.
The fact that I said nothing after it should be evidence of that.
You said "Thread Nazi" and I took advantage of the non-sequitor humor opportunity...
