do i detect a hint of humility or did you not think that through 😛

Both, that way I can't lose, like Parker Lewis.

(I was actually implying that he's not among that particular group. Hence why it doesn't happen to me, and happens to him. Because it doesn't actually happen to the best of us. Execution was admittedly poor, haha.).

Odd. My girl uses implications alot. So did every other woman in my life which, for years, made me adamantly think it was just a feminine thing to do so,. but I was wrong. Thanks for the clear up.

And fcuk belonging to any "particular" group. I prefer having tuna on rye, just like now.

Pop one, man. Like...chill out duuuude.

Hey AC, I think he's implying that you're a girl!

Add deliberately editing quotes to the list of idiotic debate tactics >_>

I don't know if it's been mentioned, but the act of a member completely ignoring a point (even if posted several times) or a question that shows the error of their train of thought or position always fascinates me.

Hahaha, is that the 'cool' couple who were virgins - and proud of it - before they got married?

I love it when people boast about sexual prowess.

No, as stated, that pic was of my wife's(stop saying girlfriend, I've been married nearly a year now) friend and her husband, who were indeed the happy, cool, virgins in question.

I've posted other pics of myself in other threads before, and am nowhere near the level maturity that Em and Tony have, having let myself live through all kinds of shit, sexual or otherwise.

Fat chance BF. 😄

The one when they do the thing what is the bad debating.

Just accept it, champ. Happens to the best of us (not to me, but still, I'm trying to keep your morale up.).

So nothing, then.

VVD, if that statement were to be followed by this smilie " 😠 ", it would have been more on the mark.

But since I haven't been around for a while, I'll let it slide.

I find smileys bring me out in a rash.

But why? They're ever so cute and expressive.

Anyone who can't express tone without an accompanying emoticon deserves to be tattooed by an epileptic at a nightclub.

Another one I'm seeing a lot of lately, is the MISuse of logical fallcies. These ****ing things are popular lately. And you can tell most of the people who bring them up just typed in "logical fallacy" into google and searched one of the sites for a fallacy they can try and apply to something that was said againt them. It results in lame (but funny) misuse of the terms. Also makes my dick soft...unless it's a hot chick doing this, in which case I'm not even listening to what she's saying, I'm busy thinking "I wonder what her vagina looks like".

Hmmm. When a logical fallacy is combined with reproductive organs I think it would be fair to say we get a "logical phallus-y"

One thing I dislike in a debate is when an individual proves incapable of providing an actual counter so instead they act of beneficent and patronising and act as if that equals a debating win.

Example: person one: Fact. Fact. Fact. So in conclusion fact equals fact etc

Person two: That's all right, just because you can't prove your point people wont think less of you. I'll finish up now as my point doesn't need anymore proving. Keep up the effort! lol.

actually, they most likely typed "lojikal falasy" and then google responed
"did you mean logical fallacy?"

My favorite misspelling of that term ever was "logical phallacy", which I was being accused of using. Ummmm......?

Edit: Oi, I was beaten by the person above me for a post on logical genitalia. Now I am teh silly!

A swing and a miss.

There seems to be some latent hostility here.

Nah, just joking.

Seriously, though. Hahaha, the epileptics...tattooing?! I've heard it all now.

In a nightclub as well, how can they see?

It's funny, and it makes you think!

"Evolution is only a theory," as is Relativity, but you do not question whether or not gravity exists.

"Both Evolution and Intelligent Design should be taught in schools," as if all possibilities merit equal consideration.

How is that idiotic? 😕
