98% of these BS statistics about who can do what are completely made up and designed to be clickbait!
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

And everyone passes.   A strange game. The only winning move is not to play.
How about a nice game of chess?

I'm sorry, you can put dibs on the next game but Kim Jong lunatic has already spooled up a game of Global Thermonuclear War.

Maybe, maybe not.

I can't pass it because I refuse to click.  Does that count?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I missed the one about taste - I'm pretty sure I was taught that there are 4, not 5.

Neptune had to be the answer for farthest planet - even if you consider Pluto one, it spends part of its year closer to the sun than Neptune. And the even more distant Eris has as much right as Pluto to be classified as a planet...

Ditto.  On both counts.
