Wired has a list of 10 ways to provoke a geek argument and 10 more ways to provoke a geek argument. Matt Blum (the author) is good. I nearly started a flame war just reading them. My three favorites:

  1. “I don’t see what’s so bad about DRM!”
  2. “Internet Explorer is much better than Firefox—why else would it be the most popular browser?”
  3. “If open-source software was really that great, they’d charge for it.”

The problem of course, is that there are people who have said all three of those things.
