Like I bet you laypeople look at a thing and go like "hmmmm well here is a thing, I had better sit here and observe the relevant facts about it, and then make careful assumptions about it, and then test those assumptions about the evidence". Probably you pull out your layperson slide rule that alla you laypeople carry and do like, math or something at the thing. But a real opinionist knows that he has to be brave enough to look at a thing and take the very first idea about it that pops into his head, and make that the unbreakable objective truth that he knows his opinion to be. And that's not all! Sure with a little training you can learn to HAVE opinions, but what good is an opinion if everyone else in the world doesn't know you have it?! You have to go up to people and tell them that opinion, whether they want to hear it or not! You gotta find the people who disagree with you, and tell 'em they're wrong! You gotta find the people who're neutral, and tell 'em they're jerks! You gotta find the people who have no idea what you're talking about, and harass them until they file restraining orders! You kids today got it easy with your internet and your text messaging and your high-powered telescopes and rapid-shutter cameras but in MY day we had to wander out into the streets and grab random passersby by the lapels, and find out if they were newspaper editors and threaten their families if they didn't publish our letters extensively detailing their grammatical errors! Yes sir a real opinionist isn't born, he's forged, forged in flames of fire, flames of the fire of knowing without a doubt that you know more than the other guy, and letting no ugly little "fact" getting in the way of your telling them that's so.  Opinions

What I really meant to say was: website design should be derived globally from the Golden Number.
