It is not about knocking down clouds; it is about having fun throwing shoes.

I have something similar.
"Arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics. Even if you win, your still retarded."

It's a good quote indeed. I'm inclined to agree. Then again...

This is an excellent corollary.

Internet discussions aren't pointless, really. Though often they're argueing a moot point (because regardless of what people think, this discussion isn't going to change the world), they can definitely influence the way some people think and thus the way they act. Which can in turn influence all the people around them.

What *is* generally pointless is getting angry at the person you're discussing with. In real life, this anger server a purpose. On the web, it's there but even if you can expres it, it will most likely not make a difference.
