I asked you things you couldn't Google or fake, so your reaction was to say I'm not worth it, accuse me of lying to save yourself the embarassment of replying and put me on ignore. It proved everything I've said; that you know nothing about British culture outside of things you learn in books. You named history and population stats, nothing about culture.
So if you'd like to pick up the slack and start replying to everything I said before, which basically amounted to; prove you know about British culture, or specifically London, please do so.
Until then, stop mentioning me. You put me on ignore because you couldn't handle my replies, so at least have the dignity of either debating like a man or not mentioning me.

Oh, is the big blowhard still going after me? At least he realizes that blowhard refers to him.
That's the modest AC I "know".

I know what he did, but the " ...you cant handle..." makes you sound like an arrogant prick.
A) Do you presume that I care what you think I sound like?
B) So? He couldn't. If he could, he wouldn't have put me on ignore.

You did make it obvious, considering you called me it, so your little jab there doesn't really work.

A) To answer, it's good you don't care what I think of you. Well you seem like an arrogant prick, and that's why people give up on "debating" you, you refuse to be wrong about anything. Apparently even the select elite of intellectuals who roam around here "can't handle" your "debating" skills.
B) I know he did not answer your questions and continues to insult you while having you on "ignore". Good job at demoralizing such an easy target.
Gentleman, gentleman...settle this like adults by...having a duel!
The winner is right and the loser dies...just like 17th century british culture. (See, I know your culture AC 😄)
Anywho...I know that in the UK, techno is a lot more popular than it is here in the US...man love Aphex twin...I wish he would crack the top 10 on the UK charts though...that is Richard James goal.
Anyway…
How the hell did this thread get this way? Both of you, AC and Creshosk are really nice guys!!! 😠
Both of you should make amends!

I would suggest that it isn't more popular here, and further that he isn't 'techno'.

Funny enough, people who can debate, or concede when they are wrong, without being a child about it, do not stop debating with me based on their irrelevant opinion of me as a person, which they have gathered via posts on a messageboard, 2D. That's what logical people do NOT do.
The only people who "give up" are people like you and Creshosk, who can't debate anyway, but let's break this down logically, shall we? Cos that whole idea of "You're arrogant, that's why people stop." is bs. If I was really that bad, you'd not interact with me at all, not start a debate and then decide, coincidentally as you're getting schooled, "Hey, he's not a nice guy, so I'm gonna stop.". You and others have started debates with me for many pages, then as you begin getting undeniably beat, it suddenly dawns on you that I'm not pleasant enough as a person to continue with?
Sorry, I'll call bullshit on that. Even more despicable is the fact that those same people who still hide behind that excuse, rather than admitting I outclassed them simply because they can't stand me, will continue insisting I never admit when I'm wrong. It's interesting, fascinating, funny and sad at the same time.

I quit trying to “debate” with you a long time ago, because your incapacity to be logical and to admit your lack of logic. Go on thinking of yourself as highly "logical", you're only holding yourself back to any intellectual advancement. Go ahead respond now, you know you will.
PS. I'm leaving work now, and I am sure you will claim that I can't "handle" you, so I left. How does it feel to be victorious so often, you're so awesome.

Look, first off let me say this to you and anyone like you;
If you don't wish to enter an impasse with me, for whatever reason, don't do so. For the love of any deity, just don't start something and then moan when it goes on, only to bail under the guise of any random excuse or the age old "I'm leaving, and I'm sure you'll claim it as a victory.". Why would I? We're having a conversation and you're leaving, it's not a debate. If you truly believe you've lost to the point that you have to cover your tracks by saying that, at least admit it yourself. Nearly 100% of my negative reputation here is generated by people pinning accolades or traits on me that I don't possess, or attribute quotes and ideals to me that I do not hold, nor believe of myself. If you and others are pissed because I don't go around saying things you wish I would, then fine, but don't spend your time trying to craft a criminalising image of me, it's sad, and people who are doing it need to grow up.
Secondly, that "Go on, respond." bs is old and tried. Of course I'll respond, you are saying things I wish to reply to. When you are saying things that are no longer of any interest, I will stop.
Last, you stopped debating with me, as Creshosk did, when I cornered you with a question that, upon answering, would reveal you to be a liar and lacking knowledge on the given subject. This isn't something I am prepared to ridicule you for, nobody knows everything, but my advice to you, him or anybody of similar mental (in)capabilities would be to not act like you know if you actually do not, because someone will always pull you up on it, and you'll then throw a tantrum.

Oh...haha...you are wrong my friend...
this is his genre/s
Drill n' Bass
Techno
Electronic Music
He even dabbles in classical music (namely his collaboration with Philip Glass)...don't you think that I would know something about this artist if I knew his real name?
Look at your top 10 songs for every single year since 1990...how many of those are electronica/Drill n'Bass/dance?(Which all three of those are sometimes grouped into a major category called techno...even some R and B music can be grouped into techno....the eye of the beholder my friend.)
Case in point...techno is more popular, generally, in europe than in america....
Really though...it was all a form of serious sarcasm. (I was poking fun of the idea of "not knowing" UK culture.)
