Audible sigh. It just makes me sad how stupid people on the internet are.

Oy... Now, I'm not tryin' to start something. I could spend quite a while giving arguments and evidence for whatever. Or I could do this.
[link]I like the points this article makes. But that is neither here not there. I'm not talking about "people who think Sheik's a guy are stupid". No. I'm talking about people who won't hear arguments. 'Cause I have seen pages of arrogant comments. One in particular supporting the male argument said something along the lines of "Either play the game, or become a
true Zelda fan, like moi.". Now... I'm fine with said opinion, but it's the way it was conveyed. And it was conveyed with French. You can NOT use the word "moi" in that context without coming off as an arrogant jackass.

even get me started on Birdo...... Seriously, just don't. I was going to type an example, but I know that'd be a terrible idea.

So. Where does that leave us? About here, I think
