Ravvy went out of his way to throw presumed aspersions on another person's voting patterns, so I felt a little more justified in rubbing his face in it.

People often justify attempts to game the system by theorizing that "everyone's doing it"; or that they deserve a bonus for figuring out how; or occasionally that the world is against them, and they're evening things out. Few are willing to admit to themselves that they're seeking an unfair advantage over others.
