Yes, now I understand that you are a giant douche. Thanks for finally admitting it. Now the healing can begin.....

Cool story, bro.

Now on a more serious note, the first step to recovory is admitting you have a problem so congratulations. I admit I agreed with a couple of your points but there was too much general nastiness for me to read through to get to those.

To answer your question, no. But if they were right about something, and they refuse to change their position; would you refer to them as "static"?

When you have nothing to come back with (not that you ever do, since the height of your debate capabilities are "I know you are, but what am I?" and the classic "You are just proving my point/making me more conservative") I guess the time for direct insults begins.

no, but thats just it with the amount and nature of some of the subjects in the OP you can be sure he is wrong about something, if only scope and scale.
some of the things can only be true if framed better than they were in the OP as well, ie because they are uttered as generalizations they are inherently wrong, even if they were true locally.

but what we are discussing here isnt on specific issues but on the mindset that goes behind them, with observation bias and the host of other points we have discussed it all comes back to one thing: does the person in question allow himself to be wrong as readily as he does right?

i never set my mind in stone about anything, that is not to say my opnion is ever changing, only that i allow it to be changed, that observation bias more often than not messes up the process only means we have to allow for that much more "potential change"

My response to the anonymous author of this copy-and-pasted article.

All the power to you, just don't whine too much about gas and energy prices going up.


Lol, whatever.


Feel free, but don't whine about being "silenced" or "oppressed" when "PC liberals" (i.e. anyone who isn't a heartless far-right reactionary) shun you.


Agreed.


Thank your lucky stars.


Neither do I.


Fine, but don't whine when others return the favor and let you know that you are an obnoxious cretin.


Okay.


No one does. It's all in your imagination.


I agree in principle, but you clearly don't have the capacity to walk a mile in someone else's shoes. If you want to treat people uncivilly for having an accent then don't expect civil treatment in return. It's called basic human decency.


And a**holes like you should never become cops.


Agreed.


No opinion.


No opinion.


I would agree, but you're obviously blowing these things WAYYY out of proportion because you're a bitter resentful scrooge.


lolwut?


So did I.


Fine. As long as people are required to educate themselves on how to not be an idiot with them.


Just blast your own red-state approved rockers right back at them. You know, Lynard Skynard, ACDC, or Kid Rock. If you're really old-school in your tastes you could try blasting some Johnny Rebel.


I'd say it depends on the student more than anything else. Going to college doesn't automatically make people smarter.


Good for you. Me neither. It's till prefer it if they made junk food with the good old-fashioned ingredients instead of fake overly-processed crap that turns out to be even worse for your body.


Yup. The original constitution was so perfect it must have been written by God Himself. Abolition? Women's suffrage? Blasphemy!

Also, when you whine about constitutional interpretations I take it you're mostly complaining about "social programs" and "wealth redistribution".


Good for you.


No comment.


Watch whatever you like.


Again, good for you. You want a star or happy sticker on your report card?


I'm sure they are.


There's nothing wrong with showing human emotion every once in a while.


Nobody going to take away your right to whine about how all the mean PC liberals are shunning you and calling your views backwards. You are free to say whatever you want. Just don't expect everyone to like or respect you if you insist on advertising your more insulting views. Respect is earned, not automatically assumed.


Sadly.

Ok. I now understand your position.

Insults, whether direct or indirect, are the essence of PPR.
Insult away!

That rant to open this thread is an invitation to be disliked.

I wish I'd thought to write it....

I'm going to quote you on this next time I notice you criticize someone for using insults or accuse someone of trolling, because I have seen you do both before. You are illuminating your hypocrisy better than anyone else ever could!

Duh, if I was sensitive I wouldn't be here.
Once again I think it's time for you to make a trip to the drug store for some Midol. You seem rather crampy lately......

Who said anything about sensitivity?

I think its time for you to start coming up with better comebacks. You should also take a break from being an a**hole every day, it must be tiring you out. That is probably the reason for that vacuous hole where your intellect should be

My comebacks are just better than yours, Vivian.

That's because Americans are the best at trash talking.

Unimaginative? Check. Sexist? Check. Predictable? Check. I see you've written your location under your profile, good, good...

Raptor, you may want to sit down. Our survey indicates that you might be a Living Stereotype, as opposed to a human being. Side effects may include a total lack of free will, sub-sapient reasoning capabilities, and unchangeable patterns of behavior. Hope is not lost, however! Education in the fine and noble art of debate, combined with a few years of growing up, may permit you to upgrade to fully sapient thought, though I'm afraid that your particular Living Stereotype (Southern Gun Cultist) never quite fully shakes the full extent of their automatic behaviors.

Hope exists. Contact colleges and universities to seek therapy for Living Stereotype Syndrome, and you too might become a human being.
