Internet Meme: Skeptics Are Naturally Dicks

If you've been following the latest internal feud between skeptics, you've seen Phil Plait's presentation "Don't Be a Dick (part 1)" (and two followups, part 2 and part 3).

I'm not going to rehash the arguments from either side.  My choice here is a bit of snark.

I'm coining a new Internet Meme: Sand's Law:

Skeptics Are Naturally Dicks
No matter how cranky and dick-like a non-skeptic claims a skeptic has been there are real skeptics that are worse.  You will also find that skeptics are so used to being dicks that they can't tell when they're doing it.  But just in case, they will go on to argue that being a dick is necessary anyway.

You don't have to take my word for it, just read any forum or blog where skeptics post.
