I reiterate my earlier comment about it being childish. "You look like someone I should hate, so I am going to fuck with you in particular."

Oh the irony in these same people being quite fond of claiming it's everyone else that's the emotional snowflake.

No. Rolling coal requires injecting vastly more fuel and making the mixture far richer than even the worst possible factory tune.
