I particularly enjoyed the way in which their industry put corrupt coorporate tycoons out of commission, without stooping to real-life illegitimate biusiness practices. Like manufactoring consent, putting the space-industry out of commission, and creating wealth out of thin-air.

Lame. No one uses your definition these days except pedants:

": to destroy a large number of (plants, animals, people, etc.)
: to severely damage or destroy a large part of (something)"
Originally posted by dadudemonI already said that though.

All this idiocy aside, I do enjoy that I'm the yardstick for his progress. Apparently he'll have arrived at superhuman grammar and debating skills when he defeats me on the hallowed fields of KMC.
I heartily approve. The rest of you are free to use me as the standard by which to compare your own ascents toward godhood.

You realize that if you deny his challenges, you then hold his ascension/evolution/transcendence/kwisatz haderach-ing/whatever-else-he's-claimed in your hands.

Oh I do, I have progressed from 1.5 Digis to over 4 Digis in the last year alone.

Heh. I'm actually weening myself off of KMC again after a rash of activity in the Battlezone forum that dragged me back for a time. By the time Oneness hits 9000, I hope to be all but gone from the forums, which in recent years have become nothing but a time thief (with a few notable exceptions, though none in this forum, certainly).
I have a feeling he'd be disappointed anyway, what with no choir of trumpets heralding his victory. I can't be the harbinger of such a letdown. He'd forever associate me with his failed apotheosis. I can't handle that pressure, dude.

😂
4 Digis?! Impossible.

You never hit the mark; not an inhuman, not a polymath (although close), not a genius, not the shortening of the way, but the very first mind with no pre-frontal cortex 'turned-on' to negate 'free-thinking'; and with the metabolism of Marvel's post-SSS Steve Rogers to boot (imagine the brain-power that such a metabolic-rate would afford). With the anti-senescence gene (dual-growth of nucleic strands) switched on because I've tricked my body into thinking it's 'fit for survival' in a purely primal setting, youth can be sustained far longer even given the extra wear-and-tear of an absolute metabolism. There's nothing inhuman about any of it, some people have the myostatin gene, few don't and their muscles develop without ample exercise. It's all in the nucleic acid.
As I said, I need no particular competitor. There's a uniquely superior aspect to the writing-styles of all of the greatest authors; whom are each "imminent" masters of each and every single language on earth, respectively, in those aspects.
Am I not to be omni-linguistically superior in every single one of these aspects?
I'm going to let that sink in.

Ducking our showdown that would prove your ascendency? Typical. How will you create the Matrix if you can't rap battle me?

I do love that you're not only sticking with but flaunting imminent. There's still no usage of that word that works. The hilarious part is that he uses eminent to describe a writer in his example in the link. I couldn't have planned it any better.
Originally posted by DigiI had originally used the correct word, then. Thanks for clearing that up, because as you can see the first definition literally says "recognized superiority".

Or immenent may have actually been better, as in; "the hierarchy stops here".
It can be made to work either way; literary superiority is a gray area, because no two people have the same writing-style. The eminent writers of KMC have all developed equally, but also uniquely, advanced methods in their writing-style. Therefore, for high-caliber writers, whoever would be picked would be picked out of preference.

Not quite. You used it incorrectly, I corrected you, then you tried to correct me, incorrectly, and used it incorrectly...again. In big 'ol quotes so everyone would know what an "imminent" chap you are. So you're incorrect yet again in this post, saying you originally used the correct word. You didn't. You incorrectly used the incorrect word, and in this case two wrongs didn't make a right. So now, at least, you're correctly using the correct term, though you're incorrectly saying that you correctly used it originally. Correct?
We should swap avatars. It is you who is the Superior Spider-Man.

This is an internet forum, and a small one at that. "Eminent" applies to none of us.

It worked for how I was using it in the second and third examples, precisely the way in which I described; the terminal point of the proverbial hierarchy.
So you're incorrect yet again in this post, saying you originally used the correct word. You didn't. You incorrectly used the incorrect word, and in this case two wrongs didn't make a right.
In the next post, I described precisely how it was functional for my purposes.
So now, at least, you're correctly using the correct term, though you're incorrectly saying that you correctly used it originally. Correct?
Perhaps I unwittingly used it correctly. Or, we could think of it as me just doing what I do best, exploiting the inherent flaws in the opposing argument to restate my original hypothesis in a new way, yet without revising it.

Doc Oc, in your flesh.
This is an internet forum, and a small one at that. "Eminent" applies to none of us.It does, albeit relatively.
Don't fret. If it's any consolation, certain words are very broad in their meanings. It'd be exhaustively difficult to construct a flawless counter-argument designed specifically to enclose such meanings.
If there's a flaw, then rest assured, I will find it.
Addendum: Perhaps for me, it's becoming increasingly paramount to put more emphasis on time, as well. My internet activity will hit a paroxysmal halt after tonight.
The whole correct/incorrect thing was me screwing around. With the joke well over your head, I can't be bothered to care about what you do and don't understand.
It's your tone, though. It's what's so repugnant. Forget the nonsensical plans and whatever else. If you were the least bit empathetic, the rest would actually be palatable.
Anyway, thanks for the amusement. Get back to me when you're Neo.
