Oh sorry - this is abuse. Argument is down the hall.

Ya' know, I can tolerate a great many things. Canuk insults from Canadia go too far. That's mean, man, just ... mean.

My appologies. I crossed a line.

How about "durak?" (Makes more sense in Cyrillic, I'm afraid.)

Research is for elitist hacks. I go on my gut, and it's never steered me wrong. Obviously, that means in this case that you're mistaken. Wikiality is currently rewriting itself to back me up.

My appologies. I crossed a line.

You certainly did. Though I cannot accept any apology from the likes of you. Your willingness to use a base word like "hoser" in an intellectual debate of this magnitude speaks volumes about your character - or, more precisely, lack thereof.

Durak? I'm alright with that one. Let ignorance be my shield!

(I did look it up. Damn my "elitism".)

In the immortal words of Stewie Griffin, Ha! Mentioning research and "Wiki" in the same comment further illustrates your failings at intelligent debate. Wikipedia. Honestly. And just because I did get my info from that site does not mean I'm wrong. Nope. But if you do, you are. That's how this stuff works.

Thanks for asking that of yourself. Now maybe you can answer that. Or are you so far out of touch that you can't even manage that?

If my use of the word indicates a lack of character, then your reaction to the same surely does as well.

Really, resorting to pointing out my personal shortcomings rather than debating my argument? What kind of feckless loser are you?

And you got exactly what you deserved.

I suggest we call a truce on the Wikipedia issue. It's obvious you're in the wrong here, and the wiki confirms it. You should save some face before your personal wiki page needs to be updated with your impending rhetorical thrashing.

Are you always so evasive? I was obviously telling you that you needed to ask yourself that question considering how far off-base you were. But ... if you feel the need to deflect I can understand. I can't respect it, but I can understand.

If my use of the word indicates a lack of character, then your reaction to the same surely does as well.

Really, resorting to pointing out my personal shortcomings rather than debating my argument? What kind of feckless loser are you?

You're right. My reaction to your demonstration of your lack of character certainly does prove you do, in fact, lack it. I'm glad we're beginning to see eye to eye on this point, at least.

And you got exactly what you deserved.

How did you find out I was awarded a nomination for the Nobel Prize in Literature for that comment? Word certainly does travel fast if it reached your backwoods locale this quickly ...

Links? Proof? Show me five impartial (to my cause) studies by accredited (by me) researchers in the field that verify what you're saying here because, to be blunt, I say that this assertion is nothing more than a steaming pile of Bravo Sierra - pardon my French. I'm not surprised by your call for a truce, however. That's the last resort of a failed argument. And you know this, man!

Still, and of the utmost importance here, in the more immortal than immortal words of the fabled Stewie Griffin; "I don't have to f***ing impress you".

I don't know where you get off accusing me of being evasive, exactly. You won't even answer your own question. What's the problem, afraid you won't like the answers you have to give to yourself? Sounds like the voices in your head need to have a pow-wow, pal.

You're right. My reaction to your demonstration of your lack of character certainly does prove you do, in fact, lack it. I'm glad we're beginning to see eye to eye on this point, at least.

This is an ad homenim attack, and I won't even justify it with a response. Clearly accusing me of agreeing with you on any level is the basest of insults, I must insist you retract that statement in the interest of civil discussion.

Here are your studies;

The Angel Institute

Rassmussen Polling Institute

Of course, I know you'll just handwave these away with bogus claims, but the info is there in black and white.

Still, and of the utmost importance here, in the more immortal than immortal words of the fabled Stewie Griffin; "I don't have to f***ing impress you".

I find it telling that you're hiding behind the words (if you can call them that) of a toothless sociopath. It really says a lot about you and your argument; somebody needs a diaper change.

That question was directed at you, sir, and you know it. But since you obviously can't comprehend this simplest of facts, I'll just assume the worst. If you and the other voices in my head choose to convene a meeting, I will, of course, abide by any decision reached. Maybe. Probably not. Ok. Nah.

Ad homenim? Did you pull that out of the "Junior Interwebz Deb8ter Handbook"? Please. I have not yet begun to ad homenim. If you can't hang, you can report it. Though I hear the mods have a prejudice against you Avenger guys.

Pix or it didn't happen.

Troll.

Well, the only pix I have include your mother. They're x-rated, of course, so I will not respond to your baiting and get myself into trouble by posting them here.

BTW, it's against the CoC to call someone a troll. Even when you're right and they are a troll. Especially if they're an admitted troll and sock puppet. Watch it, pal, or I'll be forced to report the crap right outta ya'.

Here are your studies; ... snip due to offensive linking ...

Of course, I know you'll just handwave these away with bogus claims, but the info is there in black and white.

You say you're for intelligent debate and you have the nerve to clutter the boards with that spam? Consider yourself reported. Again. The mods here take a pretty harsh stance against offensive linking, friend-o. In the future I suggest you try posting some impartial research. You let your true colors (yellow and mauve) bleed through by posting this partisan rhetoric. And mauve is hideous.

You should really stop typing out your internal monologues like this. It makes you look as crazy as you really are. It's best to hold some of that back, it helps maintain credibility.

Ad homenim? Did you pull that out of the "Junior Interwebz Deb8ter Handbook"? Please. I have not yet begun to ad homenim. If you can't hang, you can report it. Though I hear the mods have a prejudice against you Avenger guys.

This is baiting, and you know it. Straight out of the "Usenet Guide to trolling without looking like it." Wow, if the moderation around here weren't crap, you'd have been gone months ago.

Well, the only pix I have include your mother. They're x-rated, of course, so I will not respond to your baiting and get myself into trouble by posting them here.

I'm pretty sure threatening to post naked pics of other poster's family members is against the CoC. Not that they ever actually enforce that thing, just sayin.

BTW, it's against the CoC to call someone a troll. Even when you're right and they are a troll. Especially if they're an admitted troll and sock puppet. Watch it, pal, or I'll be forced to report the crap right outta ya'.

Damn me and my single account. If only I had more so that I could report each of your trolling posts multiple times, then jump on here under other names and talk about how you're going to get yours. Not having an alias to hide behind is really cramping my style.

The mods here take a pretty harsh stance against offensive linking, friend-o. In the future I suggest you try posting some impartial research. You let your true colors (yellow and mauve) bleed through by posting this partisan rhetoric. And mauve is hideous.

You asked for links and I gave you links. If you're just going to handwave them away (exactly as I predicted you would) then I don't even know why I'm bothering with this. Either refute them with facts or accept your defeat at the hands of an intellectual superior. Either/or. I await your decision.

Stewie has some teeth. Aside from correcting that blatant untruth, I'll be over in a jiff to change you're diaper, pal. Oh no he didn't! Oh yes he did! Booh-yah!

Oh sure. Attack your perception of my mental state to avoid answering the question (again). Nothing beats the "make up stuff about my opponent and then attack the junk I made up" approach. Well done. What are you, twelve years old?

This is baiting, and you know it. Straight out of the "Usenet Guide to trolling without looking like it." Wow, if the moderation around here weren't crap, you'd have been gone months ago.

Ahh. The classic attack the mods cuz someone defeated you in intellectual combat approach. I smelled it coming. I thought the smell might have been more BS from you and I was right. Seriously, if I was in the wrong I'd be gone. Since I function within the limits of the wide-open CoC, I am effectively teflon coated. What's next? You accuse me of being a company employee?

I'm pretty sure threatening to post naked pics of other poster's family members is against the CoC. Not that they ever actually enforce that thing, just sayin.

I thought it was all good if they were sexy pics. I better review that section of the CoC. It's right under the section detailing how to set up and properly flame with sock puppets, right?

Damn me and my single account. If only I had more so that I could report each of your trolling posts multiple times, then jump on here under other names and talk about how you're going to get yours. Not having an alias to hide behind is really cramping my style.

And that's another reason why I'm winning. I only need one account to smash your internet persona. It's been great since they stopped banning people for anything. I could post pictures of gutted children and be ok. Great time to be a board member.

You asked for links and I gave you links. If you're just going to handwave them away (exactly as I predicted you would) then I don't even know why I'm bothering with this. Either refute them with facts or accept your defeat at the hands of an intellectual superior. Either/or. I await your decision.

Right. Predict I'll handwave them, post outrageous lies and then fault me for criticizing the s*** on a stick you post. Clever, but this is one trick that everyone knows about. I've gotten 17 PMs from people that saw you try to pull this and called you on it (to me).

I'm fully potty-trained, thank you. I think that's your own **** you're smelling.

If you're going to continue with this beligerrant tone, I must warn you I'll be forced to PM my vast conspiracy of like-minded forum posters to come in and attack you simply for disagreeing with me. They love it when someone posts the kind of exaggerated lies like you do. Nothin' beats a good forum gang-up. And that's the motto of our organization. So chill or I'll unleash the hidden conspiracy hounds.

Hey, it's not my fault you're fostering that perception. Maybe if you'd quit posting about the voices in your head I'd stop wondering if they're the ones doing the typing.

Ahh. The classic attack the mods cuz someone defeated you in intellectual combat approach. I smelled it coming. I thought the smell might have been more BS from you and I was right. Seriously, if I was in the wrong I'd be gone. Since I function within the limits of the wide-open CoC, I am effectively teflon coated.

You defeating me in anything is about as likely as the mods actually stepping up and banning you for your obvious trolling.

What's next? You accuse me of being a company employee?

Well, are you? I wouldn't be the least bit surprised, you shill.

I thought it was all good if they were sexy pics. I better review that section of the CoC. It's right under the section detailing how to set up and properly flame with sock puppets, right?

If you think naked pictures of my mom are sexy, you're more damaged in the head than I thought.

And it's after the section about the quickest way to get around a ban and before the part about the many uses of sock puppets. Seriously, if you can't even quote from the CoC correctly, what kind of troll are you. Take some pride in your threadcrapping, man.

And that's another reason why I'm winning. I only need one account to smash your internet persona. It's been great since they stopped banning people for anything. I could post pictures of gutted children and be ok. Great time to be a board member.

If you only need one, why do you have so many? I'm counting at least half a dozen in this thread. Is your complex really that bad, or do you have one screenname for each of the voices in your head?

Right. Predict I'll handwave them, post outrageous lies and then fault me for criticizing the s*** on a stick you post. Clever, but this is one trick that everyone knows about. I've gotten 17 PMs from people that saw you try to pull this and called you on it (to me).



See, I can do that too. Now, if you wouldn't mind ACTUALLY ANSWERING THE QUESTION, I can get back to proving you wrong.

So chill or I'll unleash the hidden conspiracy hounds.

I knew it. You're a Svengali, mobilizing your minions to protect you from reprisal while you spout blatant falsehoods and bait people into arguments. That's it, I'm going to report the lot of you, then post pictures of naked women beating children who are holding up signs with dirty words written on them.

Well, living approx. six hours in the future has this side effect - I'm exhausted before you all warm up.

I'd like to notice that Batshido has proven himself to be hell of an arguer - in most threads I see his posts in he's arguing with someone. Strangely enough, if I remember correctly, he's neither American nor French nor Polish*; he's Canadian.

Actually, I'm not at this point.

I grew up there, but I've moved to Philly with my now wife for her schooling. My hometown is about 3 hours from the Kansas City airport, if that helps. Straight north of Manhattan and about 15 miles from the Nebraska border.

Google Maps "Marshal County, Kansas," and it becomes clear fairly quickly that it is, in fact, not in Canada.

Growing up, I lived on a floodplain in an oxbow of one of the rivers/creeks that fed into Tuttle Creek.

In 1992, we had to canoe to school in three separate months, and in 1993 we were surrounded by water for all but 3 days in the month of July.

In 1994, we moved the house to a nearby hill.

In 1992, we had to canoe to school in three separate months, and in 1993 we were surrounded by water for all but 3 days in the month of July.

In 1994, we moved the house to a nearby hill.

Of course, being the Midwest, if you're not canoeing in a flood, you're hiding from a tornado, or sledding across a blizzard plain.
Of course, our ground generally stays still, so I still say it's better than CA. ;) (No offense to CA residents out there)

What about that bloody groundshaker in Illinois back in April? 4.2 isn't a minor quake is it? I realize you silly buggers out farther west might not have even noticed it, but it certainly got my attention.

True enough 'bout the twisters though. Ol' Parkersburg got hit by a big one that wiped it off the map on the 25th of May and then had 6 more pass within a mile since then. 'tween twisters and floods, 85 of Iowa's 99 counties are listed as disaster areas. Any bets on what winter's gonna look like?

Which part? You've not been flooded away, have you?

Edit: Oh, um, on topic...I reject your reality, and substitute my own!

Yes. Olathe. No.

Olathe is my current location. I've also lived in Independence for quite a long time and Liberty for a while, Missouri side. Prior to that: NorCal, Western WA, Idaho, North Carolina, and for a short bit, Nuremburg, Germany.

Don't forget, the west coast doesn't just have earthquakes, but volcanoes as well. And it's not just Cali, but Oregon and Washington as well. Heh. I spend 11 years on the West coast. :P (5 in Washington and 6 in California.)

In all seriousness though, it's not any better or worse for natural disasters.

Guuuuuuuhhh. I'd rather not think about that. Give me gravel backroads anytime, thanks.

Speaking of, apparently nobody taught Philadelphians how to drive on wet roads, I nearly died 3 times this morning because of jerks who expected their antilock brakes to take them from 60 to 0 in a 10 yard span.

Kansas has earthquakes too, folks. Remember the 3.6 that hit K-State campus a few years back? Turns out they built the Tuttle Creek damn on a fault line. Corps of Engineers FTW.

After the one earthquake in Manhattan's living memory, we caught no end of crap from people on the west coast. It's different when your ground doesn't normally move, dammit.

We're looking at record twister numbers in Kansas too, last I heard from my folks. I had some family in Greensburg when that whole thing went down, scary stuff.

My uncle works for KDoT driving a bulldozer, so he's got all kinds of stories about tornado cleanup.

Yeah, yesterday was apparently pretty active for twisters, too. Of course, I was dead asleep when it all happened, so I don't know if sirens went off in my area...

LOL. Oh crud.

I used to commute from Olathe to Independence, but it was in the wee hours of the morning (4am) so it wasn't so bad. I then headed back before 3pm so I didn't have to deal with the worst of traffic.

I will provide hot cocoa with marshmallows as well as several varieties of sodas.
Lastly, we will watch both of the landmark films Dungeons & Dragons and Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God.
This will help show us that we need to stop arguing and enjoy why we all post on these forums anyways: Potlucks, Marlon Wayans, fantasy inspired slumber parties, and the wrath of dragons.

It is clearly obvious to everyone that Zombie_Babies smells better than Batshido. Can we get past that fact and move on to discussing the real issues?

I mean really, plus his arguments are just more persuasive. Sorry batshido, I agree with everything Zombie_Babies has to say. But you can't disagree with me because I am neutral.

Watch me! *Rubs hands together*

Zombie babies is the one trolling/baiting.

Unfortinatly for Batshido hes taking the bait.

Zombie Babies Hears a simple question

If Batshido Is Crazy.

Then what would that make you for argueing and such with a "Crazy" Person

I Think this is the classic case of "Dumb and Dumber"

Its just a figure of speech, But i beleve Batshido is the dumb one. While Zombie Babies is the Dumber one for enjoying this crap becouse thats the only Reasonable excuise he has right now.

If A Person is insane You never say anything to upset em.
So Zombie Babies Going on the Theroy that Batshido is Crazy.
I Would vote that would make you Even more so then he is.

Oh, I see how it's gonna be this time. Since you have nothing intelligent to say or anything to contribute beyond unwarranted snark, you'll attack my disability. Cute. Not that I expected more, of course, but it's still pretty weak.

He told me he's too busy workin' out all sorts of mommy issues with some schmuck named Batshido. I took a look at some session notes on this guy and all I can say is if you ever wondered what a child born of the hypothetical unholy union of the Marquis De Sade and Countess Elizabeth Báthory would act like, Batshido's your definitive example. That's one sick puppy. He even eats sick puppies! You ever heard of 'im?

Are you sure he's a doctor and not just another member of your support group? Sounds like you and he might have more in common than you realize.

It's quite apparent that the man in question is a doctor for only a doctor could come up with something that while it makes absolutely no sense is full of excess jargon that nobody needs. Well, besides a lawyer. And Zombie_Babies has nothing in common with him as he is completely insane and doctors must by definition be sane.
Unless you can name them all and provide me with contact information to verify your claims you are committing 10 different fallacies and shouldn't be pointing fingers about being poorly endowed intellectually.

What have I got to prove to you, exactly? You're obviously just a sockpuppet (or one of the voices in Z_B's head).

Kistra is clearly not a sockpuppet as they lack the use of hands to type out a written response on the computer as well as a central nervous system to read and comprehend the responses of a visual medium on the computer screen. And if she was a voice in Z_B's head I'm sure the medication would of stopped her by now.

And as you can plainly see by using an overly verbose and florid display of vernacular I have accomplished nothing that could not have been done much more simply if I had just made use of a laconic answer. Surely you must see that a simple response is the way to go instead of pounding out keystroke after keystroke of useless typing. That method merely takes up too much room on a thread and does nothing but bog down and hamper the potential quick read-throughs that would otherwise occur.

Clearly you're the sexist here. You're just projecting your hidden feelings upon the quote.
The quote itself does not use "dude" in the literal sense, but in the metaphorical sense, of a state of being.
I'm sure if they had used "dude/dudette" you would have still found something to complain about.
Even the original isn't sexist. After all, humans are often called "mankind", and it's clearly calling upong that meaning of the word "man" here.

And how, exactly, am I the sexist? You clearly don't know what you're talking about, and this is just some last ditch effort to save face and turn me into the "bad guy." You'd like that, wouldn't you? Well, it's not going to happen. I'm clearly in the right, and you're just sour about it.

You're probably just trying to troll me because I pointed out the fact that your precious Iceman is inferior to the Human Torch. Got an agenda, much? Yeah, I see right through you.

You're just projecting your hidden feelings upon the quote.

You'd like it if that were the case. What a weak defense you've mustered up. Smear the person you're attacking. How "noble" of you.

The quote itself does not use "dude" in the literal sense, but in the metaphorical sense, of a state of being.

I wasn't talking about that one so much as the original, but I'm sure you knew that. Yet another vain attempt to shift the argument. Only a sign that you've already lost, of course.

I'm sure if they had used "dude/dudette" you would have still found something to complain about.

Oh, whatever. Sure, make up an example that is clumsy on the tongue to support your point. What a straw man. Totally overlooking the fact that you know darn well the quote could have simply said, "Are you brave enough to click this link," and get the full meaning across without being clumsy or sexist. But it's easy to overlook obvious solutions like that when you're just trying to hide the fact that you're sexist, isn't it?

Even the original isn't sexist. After all, humans are often called "mankind", and it's clearly calling upong that meaning of the word "man" here.

No, it's not the same at all, as saying, "Are you man enough," evokes macho-ism, whereas terms like "mankind" do not. And in this day in age, we've evolved to say things like "humankind." Looks like you're so sexist that you aren't even up with the times. How sad.
