I don't understand your question.

You're called out for mischaracterizing facts and I'm two faced?
May 28, 2018 at 01:36
I'm not two faced.
May 28, 2018 at 01:23
Or what?
May 28, 2018 at 01:22
Of course she knows that. I even told T Clark publicly that I didn't think his comments should be deleted. Had they been truly racist, I'd have voted ...

Haven't we already dispensed with the doo doo head name calling?
May 28, 2018 at 01:02
True, and I live in one of the blackest, thus the very different perspective.
May 28, 2018 at 00:45
Nope, there was no misconduct on my part, you've taken to creating like and don't like lists which is hardly appropriate outside middle school, and yo...
May 28, 2018 at 00:42
And now the argument about everything and nothing really at all. Let's go through the ledger of hits and misses over the past few years and see who's ...
May 28, 2018 at 00:16
And you're truly a doo doo head.
May 27, 2018 at 23:56
Again paranoia. You're attributing a motive to me I don't have, which is retaliation for your leaving the mod team. People come and go from jobs for a...
May 27, 2018 at 23:52
You're like the worst troll ever.
May 27, 2018 at 23:16
I'm still not threatened, despite your transparent attempts to provoke/troll.
May 27, 2018 at 23:13
I actually don't think you're pissed off at all, but just think you're the first person to discover the joys of trolling.
May 27, 2018 at 22:34
You said: My point remains. He didn't threaten and he didn't try to silence. To claim he did is paranoid and hostile.
May 27, 2018 at 22:28
Another misread. I'm neither threatened nor not calm. I'm just saying you've misread Baden's post as an attempt to stop people from commenting or as a...
May 27, 2018 at 22:03
An entire misread of his post, filled with hostility and paranoia.
May 27, 2018 at 21:58
This all assumes the purpose of this place is for self- improvement. It's possible some of us find avenues for self- improvement in other places. But ...
May 27, 2018 at 21:56
This place is as special we make it. You are sacred. Subjective value versus objective. If we all agree this place is useless, it is. If we all agree ...

Maybe my dog barked and I didn't hear you right.
May 27, 2018 at 19:51
It does fit with what you said, but it's not an ad hom fallacy.
May 27, 2018 at 19:48
That's a different fallacy of drawing specific conclusions from prior facts. Remove ad hom, for example: My dog usually barks on Wednesday. It is Wedn...
May 27, 2018 at 19:28
Real example of conversation in another thread: Israel justifies attacks on Gaza because they say Hamas was breaching the barrier. Your response: If t...
May 27, 2018 at 19:23
You have to draw a distiction between the argument and the facts. To attack an argument on the basis of character is a fallacy. To attack one's veraci...
May 27, 2018 at 19:19
Your failure to give my criticism credibility is based on me being me, which means if I signed my comments by a different name, you'd consider their s...
May 27, 2018 at 17:03
I think that's true and I see it shut down a lot of debate over controversial issues. It's the problem with political correctness. If someone challeng...
May 27, 2018 at 16:51
It doesn't change that it was. I'll just keep repeating the same thing as long as you think it necessary to keep saying otherwise.
May 27, 2018 at 16:47
This is the false dichotomy fallacy.
May 27, 2018 at 16:39
Yeah, it was and is ad hom.
May 27, 2018 at 16:35
Sounds like yet another irrelevant ad hom.
May 27, 2018 at 16:12
It is. Where else can the merits of Winnie the Pooh animal conversations be weighed against scat jokes?https://youtu.be/CQI0E1WCLMU
May 27, 2018 at 14:36
You don't leave anything at that. I'll just leave it at that.
May 27, 2018 at 14:16
And so you've proved that thought alone exists. To whom?
May 27, 2018 at 13:51
If your objective is to communicate that the emporer wears no clothes, you will be insulting possibly, but your comments will be ignored if you make t...
May 27, 2018 at 13:37
It was unquestionably less civil to call someone a dick than it was for someone to claim your position was sad. The former was bullying, the latter pe...
May 27, 2018 at 13:26
Sounds like she was just hurling whatever insult came to her at the moment. Had you been Asian, she'd have called you that, fat then that. Like with m...
May 27, 2018 at 13:00
True, there have been and will continue to be many complex covert operations. Such is the necessity when running such an important enterprise. We don'...

If the cops can get away with less than the citizens, we must not be a third world regime afterall damnit.
May 26, 2018 at 19:42
I couldn't decipher a question here.
May 26, 2018 at 18:29
The public outcry generated from my having had sex with your mother should come as a kind reminder of the concern your fellow posters have for you. Th...
May 26, 2018 at 12:59
Maybe go back and read this thread. That became a specific question and so I responded. And whether people think I'm a dick, that was only something y...
May 26, 2018 at 12:37
This isn't a who's funnier contest. The question was whether certain jokes should be censored. Until you say that aristocrat jokes must be censored, w...
May 26, 2018 at 03:37
I disagree. You can't abort an 8 month old, so at some point the state has a legitimate right to regulate. It's just a matter of when, not if.
May 25, 2018 at 23:35
There are a number of issues as I see it being raised here: 1. When posters get into arguments it's distressing, 2. Sexual jokes are unsavory to some,...
May 25, 2018 at 22:45
I don't see Self-Reliance and the Cogito as comparable. The former falls within the realm of ethics, the latter metaphysics.
May 25, 2018 at 18:25
A parable is typically a fictitious story used to make a moral point, like the boy who cried wolf. The other posts in this thread are just observation...

May 25, 2018 at 15:56
I'm not laughing at any of these jokes, mostly because they're not funny. All they are are posts about animal pictures people put up. They're not clev...

/uploads/files/py/7opplj7ukbs65y4x.jpg OMG! They're just like babies but kitties instead.

For it will mask the forever gentle soul that lurks within.
