Show me lying? I was [b]drunk
This is non-canon to my sober self. Yeah, I minced words, but I was correcting him on the context. 🙂You're not immune to the rules, flame me and I will report you. [/B]
Except I am not breaking the rules, because I am simply demolishing your argument., Reporting me in those circumstances IS abuse of the report system and hence against the rules though, and you'll get warned on it.
You are asking me to prove a negative- ridiculous., You have not in any way PROVEN finger cutting., And when you have no reasonable historical evidence for something happening... that is called something NOT happening. Else I can just say aliens built the pyramids and say there is no contrary source.
ELEMENTARY stuff this. You have to establish it first. There is NO historical establishment of any such thing ever happening.
And it i as simple as this- if it had happened, people would have noted it. Henry V's speeches in the Hundred Years War WERE recorded, by the English side. No record of any such claim of his is recorded. You know why? Because he never said it. And not one single other person, on either side, ever in history is reported to have made such a claim either. What does that tell you?
