K.A game of semantics? There is a difference between pain and agony. You feel pain when you stub your toe. You're in agony if you get your arm cut off. When someone goes "ARGHH" or grunts, they aren't in agony. It was something that caught my eye as you repeatedly use the word.
Yes, Thor's a tough cookie but he can be hurt. What is your point?
My point is that agony is an expression of pain, the two are linked.
Is Thor acting like he stubbed his toe?
Do you think a steriotypical norseman would cry out loud from a toe stub much less Thor?
In any case, this is simply a semantics issue with you, the point is that Thor was hurt and made to cry out with a face that seems to imply pain on a higher level than a lower one.

Logan never did significant damage. That doesn't automatically mean only did insignificant but the damage was definitely on the minor side.I get that stabbing someone will do more damage than a slash. I want to know if in your back slashing and glancing blows are the same. Two very different things.
I can agree to the first part. Thor wasn't in grave danger by any means, but he was damaged.
Again I think it depends on the durability of the target or the effectiveness of the weapon.
Wolverine was trying to land cutting blows while capitalizing on his speed; he wasn't landing flush attacks.
I think the issue that ensued here is that while Wolverine supporters believe that Wolverine didn't hit Thor with damage as deep as he could have, Thor supporters argue as if he did and could do no worse.

Nothing there conclusively shows me Wolverine stabbing Thor, and there's several inconsistencies indicating that it may not be the case at all... 😐

It's right there. He said it wouldn't hold out forever not that it wouldn't hold up after a few cuts. Christ.
No. He made it quite clear why he changed tactics. Because Logan wasn't easy to hit.
He states his durability won't hold out forever, which takes place after two cuts... 😐
Everything that happened is in line with what I stated...
"He said his durability wouldn't hold out forever, after two cuts.
He drew doubt to his durability after two cuts and suggested that in-part is what made him change tactics from strict h2h... that's what happened. "
Because? Well, THAT'S what happened.
"Too fast. Though his stikes have failed to do any significant damage due to the thickness of my Asgardian skin... that advantage won't last forever. It doth require me to change tactics a bit."
It was a combination of both. Thor had JUST referenced his doubt to his durability before acknowledging his need to change tactics. He was referencing the speed AND his doubt to his continued assurance of durability as the reasons to him doing so...
Jesus, and you want to insult my reading ability?
