Making fun of it and standing your ground, not fleeing the battle and playing victim. If a bunch of people are going to be a faggot and troll me over something, then I call them out on it, sharpen my argument and troll them back if they persist in their idiocy. That's how it's done.

Vortex and Hornaday pulled a great one on the shooting world. Got a lot of people.




And there was a follow up video.

EPIC! I had (no joke) 3 people send me the original video over the weekend, with "let's do this!" or equivalent in the subject line. I've been a Hornady guy since at least 1980, and I'm more stoked than ever for the brand.

I had some calls too, but I was in the middle of framing my shop and dealing with a calf, so I didn't see it until this AM. It was Epic.

Firearms Industry folks are usually too serious, this was good for them.

How would you provide evidence to your claim?

atanamis rarely posts here and rarely did on the DCF, but when he does it's usually high quality and he gets mad respect as a result. He's been doing it for years. You don't have to post as prolifically as nukedog or Dr. Strangelove to get dap around here, quality trumps quantity and if you post quality consistently that doesn't go unnoticed.

If you post here long enough though you're going to get insulted mercilessly about something you said that gets ridiculously misconstrued, it comes with the territory, it isn't unique to any of you guys, and it isn't attributable to a bubble that hates different ideas, we just like to troll regulars sometimes, especially when we know it gets under their skin. It happens.

What's with the getting under the skin fetish? Why is it so important? I could very easily see a bubble forming with certain type of assholes randomly showing up an having a consensus about some things.

The more bent out of shape you get, or the easier it is to twist something that you said, the more lulz for the trolls. Welcome to the internet.

Nothing wrong with an ever evolving consensus that can be freely challenged with new ideas at any time. If you don't like what you consider to be the consensus on a certain topic, then challenge it. Whining that a consensus is challenging new beliefs is not a valid criticism of that consensus.
