A place where you can rant to your heart's content.

Rules :
  1. Follow all of Lemmy code of conduct.
  2. Be respectful to others, even if they're the subject of your rant. Realize that you can be angry at someone without denigrating them.
  3. Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.

Hands down one of the best... (lemmy.world)

Pick a fucking lane!

Is it the best, hands down; or is it one of the best? The "hands down" implies that this one is clearly so much better than all the others that there's no need to even consider them. And the "one of" immediately contradicts that by considering several others.

If you ever say "hands down one of" just know that i hate you.

No, because Kobe is also a contender. It wouldn't be relevant for, say, Detlef Schrempf.

But you already said hands down. Implying LeBron is the only contender for the list.
