2. ...

The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error. -John Stuart Mill

14. Any thread where the OP is "OMG Did you see what so and so just said"

but no actual context for people not watching that so. OPs that include a link to a video with no explanation of what the hell the video is of. Any thread where either in the OP or soon there after, some complains about unrecs. Seriously I've seen people complain like 5 min into a thread "whyyyy is this being unrecced????"
