What IS good, and how do we determine it?

Mongol: The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist, and the wind in your hair.
Mongol General: Wrong! Conan! What is best in life?
Conan: Crush your enemies. See them driven before you. Hear the lamentations of their women.
Mongol General: That is good! That is good.

I'm kinda done with you on the sig issue, because I realized I don't have to wade into your shit; you lost, we're the ones who enforce the rules, get over it, but I do have something to say here:

So, quoting is plagiarism now?

Stimbo's Lincoln quote is a derivative of a bible verse.

The issue was never about the sig, it was about you calling me a liar by claiming my sig was never disabled...which it is, that's what kicked the whole thing off...

You did not have your "sig privileges" revoked, so kindly do not lie about mod actions. You were told to remove the sig you had put up at the time, not for quoting somebody- that's your second lie- but because the quote itself was nothing but trolling, a way for you to taunt another user on the site. We have rules against trolling, and your sig had been found to be in violation of those rules. You had your opportunity to argue your case at the time and you failed, you do not then get to misrepresent what happened later.

Interestingly enough, you said nobody had yet provided evidence of you lying, and then in the very next post you lied twice for personal gain; did you just think I'd forgotten that report? That we don't have it archived for posterity? All this was explained to you at the time, you know.

You clearly are in need of a good dictionary:

Quote:plagiarize

1 Take (the work or an idea of someone else) and pass it off as one’s own

Quoting someone and giving them credit for saying it is the antithesis of plagiarism.

Look at that thing! Look at it!

It surely can eat a fridge. But that is beneath it. It has no time for the childish game of eating a hollow aluminum box. It is for crushing rocks, professionally.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
