>>2457887>retarded debates like "hurr durr alcohol stoves are sooty" only on /out/ where half the users pretend to go outside but don't. I noticed this as well. Things that I’ve actually done, know as fact, and are accepted as common knowledge or colloquial wisdom are just plainly labeled as wrong. It’s fucking weird.
The alcohol soot thing is a prime example. Everyone but this one faggot knows there’s no soot from alcohol stoves. It’s common knowledge (common within backpacking circles, anyway). Saying that there’s soot isn’t an opinion. It’s just retard-tier factually incorrect. There’s no debate, and can’t be. You can argue about weight, ease of use, speed, or whatever, but when some nigger chimes in about soot everything else they say can just be disregarded.
Pic unrelated but it demonstrates a topic where there can be debate (sand can work, though I prefer a scouring pad)
