      It’s a very poor analogy.

      I suppose it works better like so:

      Imagine…

      You’re in line at McDonald’s talking to a buddy about how Burger King has better quality, is free, and that you’ll not be returning to McDonald’s in July because their burgers are going to cost $0.24 per microgram, and the owner is a clown.

      Someone unaffiliated with McDonald’s who is also standing in hears your comment and starts shouting for you to “GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE!”

      … not because they don’t like Burger King.
      … not because they have never tried Burger King.

      But because they closely identify with McDonald’s, and the clown that represents it.

      Hope that’s clear. Heh

        @dismalnow Ah, okay. Yeah, that makes more sense. I legit thought folks were getting free Burger King somewhere. xD
