I saw, somewhat recently, a review of a video game that compared it to another game in the series. The reviewer went down a list of features rewarding 1 point to A or B depending on which did better. In the end, B had more points, so B was deemed "objectively better" than APermalink On twitter.com

It reminds me of physics envy. It's not enough to defend an opinion anymore. Your opinion needs to be "objectively correct". Which, ironically, means your personal perspective, the only thing that actually matters, can't exist because it's not "objective"Permalink On twitter.com
