Would it be a retarded idea to print a thread from /adv/ or elsewhere on the internet and show it to someone to prove a point? To show them why they might be wrong?
Probably.
Is the thread specifically about them?
That is slightly less retarded.
But most stubborn people aren't going to admit they're wrong just because a bunch of random people on sites they probably have preconceived notions of said so.

...even if it's a lot of people?
Don't underestimate my autism anon, I made three threads in three different sites, with a good amount of people calling this person out in all of them.
It's so tempting to just print it all out and shove it in their face, I swear to god.

Obviously it's going to depend on the person.
I definitely have had people wrong me who will never see themselves as anything other than an innocent victim.
On the other hand, there are many, many things I've done that haven't exactly been popular that I stand by 100%.
It depends on how open for discussion it is in their mind.
Would it not be 100 percent easier to screen shot it on your phone? Who uses printers anymore? What is this 2006?
Absolutely.
You'll just look like a total autist, you should be able to get your point across just by using the phrases "For example" or "I heard about".
I have a rule of thumb that I've gone by for nigh on 9 years:
>never keep any proof to people IRL that you go in 4chan
