Growing up is learning you don't have to win the online argument.

Wait. Not "growing up," sorry, I just double-checked my notes and I meant to say "getting medicated." Yes, that's it.

  And then you realize the person you're arguing about politics with is some literal 14-year-old
- Growing up is to only argue when you could win and be a polite asshole when you couldn't
ULTP: Just point out opponents grammer or typos instant win.
Growing up I've just learned how to make things sound professional. "Independant research to contribute to peer education."
If I was in charge of an internet research dataset, I think I would grant anyone's request if the reason was to win an argument. Then again, maybe that's why I'm not in charge of an internet research dataset.
