Brown nosing sounds like a fetish thing where you stick your nose into someone's ass :D
That was my first thought, maybe I'm perverted.

Arguments on the internet are fine, just don't try "winning" them. Sooner or later you find someone with more time and less humor than you.

Really though, if "projecting" is too loaded a term, will this do?

or this?

Really people should just stop using name-calling as a shortcut to ending disputes. Except me, I can keep doing it. Because I'm fantastic.

When did I ever claim to be correct?

I never said "People who defend certain small groups only do it to make themselves look better".

I clearly stated "I think that".

The question was asked what type of person I think of when hearing these terms.

That was the type of person I think of when it term "White Knight" comes up.

I have made no arguments that this is actually the case.


Added to that.

I have a personality disorder which makes empathy very difficult. I don't really feel it.

Thus, it seems unlikely I'd care to defend any group of person, because I simply feel no care towards doing so.

Then there's also such so-called "insults" such as "Try-Hard", "Goody-Two-Shoes", and "Virgin".

Ummm... Since when were any of these bad things?
