Entrepreneurship in action

I guess you havent heard of this new thing called “Argumentation Ethics” that the wrestler HHH invented which says if you refuse to argue with me, then ethically I can murder you.

Lol. The OP read like an annoucement. But nooooooooo, you had to make a case about how it’s implausible for a high school girl to what the OP classmate did.

How you ever been in a casual conversation?

It is what it is.

Oh, yeah? Well, your questions to me were loaded.

I knew that guy was a lot smarter than he looked.

I find it rather odd, and a bit amusing, that you’d bother to dig up nine separate posts of mine to link to in your post. Unfortunately for you, that also doesn’t intimidate me in the slightest. The fact that you apparently continue to expect otherwise from me is perplexing - and I can think of no other reason for you to go through all that trouble.

You mean like the link to my post history that’s present next to every post I make? It’s in the form of my current post count, under my avatar. Anyone can click on it.

Not a problem at all. Linking is pretty easy. In case you hadn’t noticed, I do it quite a bit.

Gee. I never saw that one coming.

The entire point of my post was to point out how embarassingly predictable your response is. Why in the world would you think I would expect it to be different when the entire purpose was to illustrate how it’s always the same?

That’s the one!

Yeah, but

a) not everyone knows about that

b) even less people would expect to be able to get your response to any post they make from your post history of the same refrain. They may not actually realize that it’s all the same.

This is why I suggested instead of taking the time to type out the same thing all the time, you simply post the link. Or, if you think that would still be confusing and you’d still have to type an addendum explaining that your response is pre-packaged and that users could just look through your history to find out what you’ll say, you could just take a copy of one of your old “I won’t let you intimidate me” speeches, and then just have it at the ready, like a template that you just paste in and post anytime someone addresses you directly.

You know. Just thought I’d help you out there.

I couldn’t care less whether you saw it coming or not. My point is to inform you that I’m not intimidated by your antics when you engage in them.

I can only parse this as you wanting me to be embarrassed by my behavior and thus back down. Unfortunately for you, then, neither am I embarrassed by my behavior, nor will I back down. So now what?

If I’d wanted your “help”, I would’ve asked for it.

I put “help” in quotes because I don’t think you were trying to help me at all. Rather, I think you were trying to belittle me once again. Too bad it didn’t work. In order for such an attempt to be successful, the target has to feel belittled. I certainly don’t. Do you get it yet?

Now then, let me remind you that I wasn’t the one who got my panties in a knot because someone else happened to make the same point I did earlier in the thread. I don’t consider someone else making the same point as I did beforehand to in any way warrant acting like a complete dick to them. You apparently do (among other things), which I don’t approve of in the slightest. But like I said before, John - go cry me a river.

And my point is that I’ve already been informed of this. Again, that was the whole purpose of that post. Everyone has been informed of this. Ad nauseum.

Ya don’t say.

I point out your obsession with intimidation and your paranoia of everyone being out to intimidate you, and your broken record response of “I won’t let you intimidate me”…and your response is “I won’t let you intimidate me”.

Nice!

Likewise.

Likewise.

What ever gave you that impression?

Are you sure? I mean you don’t even seem to really know what the goal actually was.

No, not exactly. Could you explain it for me?

You said it, not me.

Oh OH! That one’s better. Put that line as a response to your whining above.

JJ, I wonder if you would maintain a high level of discourse–regardless of the other participants–if you were posting from your mod account.

Hence I should shut up about it already, right? Oh well, too bad.

My point is to demonstrate that I’m still not backing down.

What “whining” would that be, exactly?


In my opinion, John, you’re the worst kind of bully - the kind that claims to be victimized when his targets actually stand up for themselves.
