Holy crap guys. I missed a lot while I was away for the weekend.

My thoughts:

I found the time traveller thread amusing. It was one of the funnier distractions around here in a while. The last one I can note was back in the day when Camfubot was funny.


I don't necessarily think it shouldn't have been locked.

But ALSO, (this is for you, Typhoid) while I can appreciate your stance and where you're coming from, you need to learn how to argue without sounding like a total douchebag. The way you argue pisses people off or makes them not want to listen to what you have to say.

Develop some etiquette.

Etiquette has no place in arguments, or wars.


Why do you think France never won after Napoleon?

You have no idea what you are talking about.

Listen to Dylflon. He's trying to give you some good advice.

You're comparing a scuffle on some internet message board to the World Wars? See, this is why you keep losing arguments. It's not that you lack etiquette. It's that you don't know how to debate, period. I've seen you in political arguments, and as a liberal, I would normally agree with what you say. But most of the time, I end up cheering for The Strangler (with whom I disagree about everything) to smack some sense into you.

That too.

Bahahahahaha.



So now its come to a point where I cant even joke with a friend? (Dylflon, who my post was aimed at).



Wow people, the internet is serious stuff.



If you read the post again, this time, try it sarcastically, it makes a helluvalot more sense.


EDIT: That post wasnt meant to be a defence in any way at all. It wasnt meant to be serious in any way at all. But the topsy-turvy nature of the seriousness on the internet at this forum boggles my mind. I cant even make a sarcastic lame joke, without 3 or 4 people taking it as the gods honest truth of it as a defence. Do I need to "bust" out ORLY the Serious business owl again?

I agree here. Listen to him Typhoid. I think he has put into words what a lot of people think.
