I don't need to gain favour with anyone. I don't ignore facts or fawn
either. I prefer to live life with a sense of fun, whereas you seem to
be serious about everything, even Mark taking the piss of your insults
about him.
Why do you always pitch the popularity contest as the only means of
finding value, Pedro ? Are you so vain as to think popularity defines
your identity ?

Tsekung asked Confucious, "What would you say if all the people of a village
like a person?"
"That is not enough," replied Confucious.
"What would you say if all the people in a village dislike a person?"
"That is not enough," replied Confucious. "It is better when the good people
of the village like him, and the bad people of the village dislike him."
From the Aphorisms of Confucious, Translated by Lin Yutang, 'The Wisdom of
China' (Foursquare: London: 1963) p. 289
