Good to remember, especially when I’m feeling like this.

    The other relevant quotation, I believe, is:

    “Do not argue with an idiot they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”
    —Mark Twain

    That’s great! There’s also the Biblical version:

    6 Do not answer a fool according to his folly,
    or you yourself will be just like him.
    5 Answer a fool according to his folly,
    or he will be wise in his own eyes.
    —Proverbs 26:4-5

    Yeah, maybe a little contradictory, but arguing with idiots is a no-win situation.
