@maxleibman@beige.party My particular bugbear is folks who pick at tiny details of an analogy and treat any inconsistency as if it invalidates the whole analogy. Motherfucker, if I wanted something exact in every detail I'd just describe the original thing. I'm drawing a fucking parallel here, jfc.

@woe2you@beige.party @maxleibman@beige.party I've run into situations where my choice of subject for the analogy raises an objection or comment by someone who happens to know all about that topic. Before you know it, the thread devolves into a series of posts about [arcane topic that was never the point].
