What's wrong with editing messages?

Why is it that some of you 'orgers' don't like editing your messages? I don't see anything wrong with using the editing feature. Sometimes something just doesn't sound the way you wanted it to, or you just change your mind about something else, so that's when it comes in handy. So 'what it is' exactly? See, I edited...AND? biggrin

It's like admitting you're wrong, something that nobody likes to do. We all like to think we get everything right on the first go around, but unfortunately a lot of us have to man up to our mistakes.

What's even worse is that stupid little editing message! It's bad enough when you have to edit, but to let the rest of the world know you're imperfect... well, that's just cruel.
I mean, like, where is the sun?

You have a good point... I am always wrong, therefore I must be wrong right now and this must actually be a bad point, but the fact that I think that it must be a bad point means that the point must be good... Oh shit, a circular argument...

EDIT: Obligatory edit... nothing changed, it just made me happy.

That link in your signature is good. Whoever did that site has some comedic talent and a healthy dislike for xtian organizations... I found it amusing.

Nothing.

I've met a lot of internet "snobs" who like to flaunt thier digital superiority whenever possible. I suspect that has something to do with it. These are the same bastards that pounce on somebody for mis-typing a word here & there.

Edit all u want.
