Bush is a Good Dude

No. And I have explained why not. :confused:

I hope you and your dictionary revisionist friends are having fun projecting images of yourself onto big telescreens and officially cutting your vocabulary by a hundred words each day until everything can be explained in terms of doubleplusstrawman
 
Excusez-moi? Lying? When have I done any lying?
Over and again vis-a-vis the discussion concerning the term, "vis-a-vis."
...the simple fact that newspapers use it doesn't make it less pretentious.
Your justification for calling it pretentious is that you consider the term "esoteric." That is a profoundly ignorant assumption, and I have proven it wrong.
Given your tone, you seemed pretentious. How do I quantify this? I don't. It's a gut feeling. Sort of like, hey, whether or not Bush is a "Good Dude" or not! Understand?
I don't have confidence you appreciate the meaning of the word. But I do understand. Your concept of reality is plastic, and you seem to freely mold it into the form you prefer without any apparent intellectual justification.
The important part is in direct relation to one another.
It is quite surprising that you adhere so steadfastly to a desired outcome rather than what evidence dictates. 700+ newstories, and references from creditable sources were not enough to convince you--I'm being generous and allowing your insistance of honesty for the time being--of the truth. That is invincible naivety.
The fact that English speakers misspell doesn't make it correct!
Actually, it kind of does. Language was not bestowed upon us by some kind of language messiah, and it changes constantly. The French signal in vis-a-vis is not common to the English language, and many English speakers do not bother using it. Certain esteemed news sources do not bother using it.
Maybe I should print your post out and tape it to my wall. It would be a nice effect, right?
I think you should. :goodjob:
 
Unfortunately, I understand only too well.

The last twelve pages of thread say otherwise.

I don't think I have an argument here. However, quite a few, including yourself, resorted to the most infantile trolling imaginable when I refused to justify it. It seems like you're telling yourself, rather than me, the importance of this point.

We never asked you to justify it, you insisted that WE should justify it! When you make such gross juxtapositions of fact I can't help but wonder if you're doing this on purpose.

More unwarranted condescention. Don't let me stand in your way while proving yourself an ass.

Oh don't worry, if I'm mine is a gentle rapids, yours is Victoria Falls.

I simply can't imagine what your prattle is all about. First you make an unwarranted accusation of trolling...only to dive into pure troll behavior,

I wasn't aware they were mutually exclusive, acusing someone of trolling and then trolling yourself. It may be a case of the pot calling the kettle black, but that doesn't mean the pot is wrong.

and even with the assistance of fellow jackasses lack the courage to back your claim. Wow.:lol:

Which claim would that be, then? The claim that I think Bush is a good guy? If that's the one you're talking about, then your reading comprehension skills are in far more need of help than I thought, because you just said the opposite earlier in this very post, and agreed that justification of our opinions about Bush's character are uneeded.

However, if you're referring to my claim that you're a troll, then you quite simply don't know what a troll is. If you did, you'd see that your posts are "simply self-evident," to borrow a quote from you.

Now this is a good point. Judging from your hysterical behavior, I'm actually surprised you have heard this before.

Experience, pal. And advice you don't seem to be following very well.

Maybe you should switch to Caps Lock, or use an oversized text. Maybe that will serve to reinforce your baseless claim. You continue to make an allegation without any support sans your insistance that you must be right. :confused:

or maybe you take things waay too seriously

But with no indication you can demonstrate it. Perhaps it's one of those "gut feelings" that has ruled your troll fest so effectively.
We never asked you to justify it, you insisted that WE should justify it!
Sweet Jesus no! I hope I didn't do something so offensive. Damn, no wonder you went on a troll-spam fest! :crazyeye:
I wasn't aware they were mutually exclusive, acusing someone of trolling and then trolling yourself.
Neither did I. Perhaps you could explain this blather, but I'm betting it's another "gut feeling" of yours that I should not dare to question.
It may be a case of the pot calling the kettle black, but that doesn't mean the pot is wrong.
It makes your complaint worthless and hypocritical.
Which claim would that be, then? The claim that I think Bush is a good guy? If that's the one you're talking about...
Woah! Settle down there, little feller! Let me cut you off long enough to answer. :lol:

I made a direct response to your accusation in that post. That would be the one to which I was referring. Here it is again:
And fourthly, though your lack of knowledge of foreign languages is excusable, you might make more of an effort to master the language you do know. A word to the wise.
You ready to hitch your wagon to the vis-a-vis discussion? Man up and join in on that. No need to hint and run.
Experience, pal. And advice you don't seem to be following very well.
Wow. Why lower yourself to such dishonesty? Why the hypocrisy? All you want is to do is get even for my owning you so badly, even while you are being assisted by an army of trolls.
 
BRAIN PAN,
YOU MADE THIS THREAD TO SEE WHAT I MEANT BY THE PHRASE BUSH IS A GOOD DUDE! I HAVE POSTED A REPLY TO YOUR COMMENTS! WHY ARE YOU IGNORING THEM? DO YOU NOT WISH TO SEE THE REASONS BEHIND WHAT I WAS SAYING EARLIER?

YOU'RE ON HIS IGNORE LIST


(probably)
 
Sorry troll master. It's great you have lowered yourself to purely dishonest and trollish discourse, have at it. But I'm not interested in repeating the same answer over and over. :crazyeye:

So in a nutshell, you don't really have any answer whatsoever and this thread was pointless. Gotcha. I'm glad somebody is being honest here, jeez.
 
Moderator Action: Can't be bothered to read more than the last page which looks far more like personal attacks etc than discussion. Closed.
If I'm totally off the base here, and someone feels there's some pressing reason why this should be reopened, you can email with a thread rescue plan.
:p
