To you, it probably does, considering your debating skills. Or lack of. Always the excuses, excuses, excuses.
empty posturing and yapping

More nonsense from the one and only Schecter. Stick to the topic. I may have steered it off topic slightly, but you're the one acting like it's some silly little game of semantics.

Yes, you did. A series of proverbs that were out of context, therefore they do not follow a logic train of thought, as I stated earlier and backed up with an example.
you simply say they are out of context. that is not proof, that is an opinion.
you cant just say "thats out of context" and expect it to be fact. you also have to explain just why. thats how this whole thing works. i know its alot of work, but in the end all your filler rhetoric and diatribe (your entire post) might seem somehow validated. try it out and let me know how it goes.

I even asked you if what you said earlier was meant as objective logic.
Your response?
which proves what? that im a smartass? congrats 👆

"One good turn deserves another", and "What goes around comes around" do nothing to justify that you think Sorgo X deserves a buzzkill because he's been dishing it out a lot. Logically, there is no reason why he should.
One describes Karma, and the other describes repayment (both of which are subjective topics anyways).
i guess by the coffeeshop buddhism definition of karma that would apply, but im afraid any real buddhist will tell you that karma is far more complex than one on one ***-for-tat. so the point is that you cannot declare that "what goes around..." is a direct reference to Buddhist believe because it simply is not. it may be reminiscent of it, but nothing more.
example: "eye for an eye" is an ancient judeo-christian proverb, and by extension muslim. i dont understand why you insist on running off on these little tangents where you apply implication where there is none.

[B]While they sound similar and might be associated with the "buzzkill" comment, neither do not have anything OBJECTIVE to do with what you said at hand.
ok, should this be a new drinking game? every time you sy "OBJECTIVE" well chug our beers..

Actually, I have, Schecter. It's not that hard.It's only nonexistant if you didn't bother reading it in its entirety.
You're really just acting ignorant, that's what's going on.
no you clearly have not. parroting the same empty declaration does not pull fact from thin air. that is why you have no proof other than to say "i have proof".
i swear you must have watched way too much star wars. there really is no such thing as the jedi mind trick...sorry

Condescending?You're accusing me of being condescending, when you are the one analyzing my posts incorrectly and breaking it down with blatantly stupid comments regarding 'semantics'.
Once again, 'logic' from the great Schecter.
the point is you seem to want everyone to believe that you're 'above it all' yet here you are rolling around in the mud right next to me. get it now, sunshine? you're a hypocritical yapper. not once have i declared myself above this nonsense, while you clearly have in your apparent role of 'moral luminary of the thread'.

No, I didn't declare it moot on the grounds that it was proverbial, as I explained before. Read my posts properly.
*puts on reading glasses*

Those are proverbs and cliches. NOT logic.
nope, same thing i read before.
implication being that since they are proverbs, they are moot. its clear as day.
Originally posted by DarkC
I declared it moot on the grounds that it was a proverb or a cliche, and that it was used out of context. I've already explained how and provided an example.
...ah so now you load the point. "AS WELL" as being out of context, which you have yet to prove....which btw is impossible with such a general philosophy. but its cute how you try.
Originally posted by DarkC
Not difficult to understand, Schecter, providing one has read my posts properly. You said that it was logical for Sorgo X to recieve a buzzcut BECAUSE he was dishing it out. It isn't.
its "buzzkill" as in "ruining someone's good vibes" as in "raping the fun", which he loves to do to other people. the theory is that to post in one of his many troll threads would be ineffective in that it does not illustrate to him just what he is doing. imo the only logical means would be to give him "a taste of his own medicine". (more proverb for you)

Keep up.
truth is i had no intention of going beyond my first post in this thread. your and sorgo's continuous baiting is why i stay.
here's more proverb for you: "it takes 2 to tango" (in this case its a 3 way tango which is kinda turning me on)

Believe me, I have seen my share of so called 'debaters' who make up for lack of skills with massive truckloads of bluster, the "no effort" clause being one of the oldest excuses in the book.
Doesn't work on me, pal.
posturing, strutting, empty words. you really need to trim the useless fat off your posts. have you ever thought of using smilies....i mean....ONLY smilies?

It is indeed possible to take it out of context.
yes it is indeed possible. again, is this your "proof" that i quoted proverb in improper context? you're not shitting me?
Originally posted by DarkC
The previous example of "What goes up must come down",
never said "what comes up must come down".remember? Not too difficult to do. When you apply it to astrophysics, for example, it becomes illogical.
Explain to me how taking proverbs out of context is impossible.
i never said it was. wow is this really your method of discussion? dodge, evade, misrepresent....LIE? you and sorgo were made for eachother. i love when you yappers gang up and feel like that somehow makes you right.
