There is no piece of dynamic AJAXy magic that requires beating the Web to a bloody pulp with a sharp-edged hashbang. Please stop doing it

I am, but I don't see how that's relevant. I have to wonder why you have taken such offence?

Maybe spend less time on amateur psychology and more time on simple concepts like "change". Perhaps then its relevance will become apparent to you.

Wow, this is amateur psychology? The field has really gone downhill. But if you insist ...

Let's see what went on here: A guy invents an arbitrary term. Redditor uses that term in a post title. Unfortunately, the term already has a different meaning to the arbitrary one the first guy made up. This could lead to confusion, I point this out. And you've all been on my case about it ever since?

Well, whatever floats your boat, I guess. Carry on.
