Yes, but that's a hypothetical removed from reality. Given the reality, no, the use of torture would not be up for consideration.

Yeah, but in a way, the damage had already been done, and it gave us an insight into the kind of options you'd consider supporting.

I went back and edited my post, because although I remember you mentioning the death penalty in that discussion, it was actually a discussion you crea...

It does make me chuckle to see you promote forgiveness and love, Agu. It brings back memories of your discussion in which you argued in favour of the ...

They do look strategically placed. :D But, more importantly, that's not the safest place for them to be, @"Wosret".

But I'll be gang raped, so more of a dream.

I dream of it all the time. You always turn up to court seemingly under the influence of some kind of illegal substance and start spouting some nonsen...

Me too. No. Don't barrister me.

Okay, then a "Wosret" will be when you say something gross and you're deadly serious.

>:O Ew. That was such a Hanover.

Yes, it's not inconceivable that someone would express themselves in the form of an instruction in inappropriate situations. You have to be careful no...

So, when would the sportscaster be saying, "If he doesn't fall flat on his face, he scores"? To me, that would only make sense if it was said beforeha...

I also doubted his explanation, and still do, but I thought I'd give him the benefit of the doubt to some extent, given that I've never even been to A...

No, that's not what you said, and that was the problem. That might have been what you meant, but it was certainly not what you said. I'm still not con...

The Bible an anti-myth? That's a good one.

What's done is done, it is what it is, whatever will be will be. These are definitely not meaningless truisms, and whoever thinks that has not thought...

Heh, someone else who does that. Except it's a German accent when I do it.

It's bizarre to me that anyone would see that and interpret it as anything other than an instruction, such as, "If you see a roundabout, then turn aro...

But to give this some important context, the discussion was under consideration for deletion. I thought that the least I could do is tidy it up a bit.

My remarks might have given the wrong impression to some, so I'll clarify. The important part was the part where I said that you don't get special tre...

It's not.

It's a good name. David Barkowitz would have been funnier. But it's a good name.

Is the name a reference to the Son of Sam?

I'm not going to teach you grammar, but I would advise you to teach yourself, since you've demonstrated that you don't know how preferences should be ...

Your first sentence expressed a preference. The following sentences in the quote were in the form of an instruction. I denied the instruction, then ex...

:D Anyway, since I think it's such a minor issue, and I agree with Baden that you made a fair point in reply, I'll change your title back to the origi...

So... you meant gay stuff? Have I understood your meaning correctly? You intended for what you said to be secret code for gay stuff that only you and ...

"Lower Reactionary Values" is his pet name for my you-know-what. It's a bit of a mouthful.

He's the Lord of Destruction, and he has big strong arms. Sometimes I dream that he is holding me in those big strong arms of his whilst I rest my hea...

Skeletor.

Anyway, why haven't you called me back yet? I've been sitting by the phone for hours awaiting your call. I travelled all the way to Canada, disguised ...

>:O

No. You don't get special treatment, and if that's what you're after, then insulting the moderators is not the best tactic.

Why do you hate me, Baden? That's not very nice. What?! Why would you do that?! Cruelty to animals is wrong, Baden. Oh my god! Hanover has been eaten ...

Are you suggesting I'm on drugs? How dare you.

Michael, he can talk about the positive features of the guy he's got the hots for without being gay. What are you? Some kind of idiot?

You anticipated that reaction, but you think that I did not? You underestimate me and insult my intelligence. You can't see half as much as you think ...

Whatever you say, Wosret. What's my next lesson? Are you going to explain to me that you had no intention of murdering him, and that murder is wrong?

Don't mistake something said in jest for the real deal.

I know some of those exceptions. For example, I have a lesbian friend who says she hates lesbians, meaning those who fit the stereotype. By the way, I...

But you met him in a gay club. At least, you did in the story I made up.

Call him back. Arrange a date. Go out for dinner. Take him back to your place. Make love to him. Regret making love to him. Murder him. Hide the body....

I agree with the gist of your opening post, but not with your conclusion, which I think goes too far. I agree that, in practice, it can be difficult -...

I say that that conclusion is absurd. I say that it doesn't follow unless there are hidden premises - which you should reveal, and which I'd likely re...

I've been working a lot lately and I'm in a phase where I'd rather not participate in philosophical discussion. But I'll still be around these parts o...

No one beats sappy's snappy chappies.

I wouldn't be so sure. Have you noticed that I didn't return your high five? >:O

8-)

Me neither. @"Posty McPostface", fetch us some, and make it snappy.

Flux you.
