Line 4:
** It's especially bad if you say you use anything besides Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, or Opera.
* One should never even approach any computer science/geek newsgroup without taking much care about subjects that could generate a flamewar, such as:
** vi versus Emacs ([[UNIX|UN*
** Windows vs. Mac OS vs. free UN*
*** The free UN*
** Flash. Just... FLASH. Any topic at all, and both lovers and haters of the program will argue.
** (IBM) PC vs Mac. So ([http://bash.org/?699308 in])famous, Apple played upon it in their ads, and correspondingly somebody [http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Jkrn6ecxthM made a rap about it].
Line 15:
** Amiga vs. Macintosh, which is almost as old.
*** Versus Mac, hell! Try "original Amiga" (i.e. running the original OS on stock or souped-up original Amiga hardware) versus any or all of the "next-gen" alternatives (Amiga [[OS 4]], AROS, or [[Morph OS]].) (Or, even ''more'' acrimoniously, any of the "next-gen" systems versus ''each other.'')
** [[wikipedia:DAZ Studio|DAZ
*** For extra fun, go to any forum that supports CG modeling and bring up either.
*** There's a running war on [[Deviant ART]] to try and have art made with Poser/DAZ|Studio separated from scratch-made models.
Line 152:
* Post anything about an animal shelter or a group of altruist people helping dogs or cats with cancer o disabilities to find a good home. [[Tempting Fate|Nobody will flame that, right?]]. WRONG. Expect some random poster questioning why all that people doesn't spend their time and money helping other people instead, and watch the flames erupt.
