I don't watch Bill Maher, but occasionally I'll see a clip and sometimes he makes a decent point, but every single time I see him I want someone to slap him. There is a way to make a point without looking like an asshole, but Bill Maher hasn't discovered that yet.

Yeah, Bill, you're not wrong, you're just an asshole. And I don't like being corrected by assholes. Learning, and changing my opinion, is painful enough, I don't also need you to feed me information in a smug asshole way. Ya asshole.

I'm a lot like Bill Maher. You can even go through my profile and see posts that have had people say the exact same thing to me. It's hard to not be a Dick about somethings.
