I Can't Argue ...

... but I can obfuscate and steamroll. Probably because I concentrated in sociology instead of philosophy.

I ran across this post from someone I believe was in our class of '91 cohort (that guy who wrote all those articles in the Maroon):

Second, jackass trolls just insult my internal feng shui because, god damn it, I know how to argue; I have a degree in Philosophy of Language from the University of Chicago, so I'm academically trained to argue, and I've spent the last decade and a half making a living from writing, so I know how to use words, and use them to good effect.
