Ivan, I read and understood Don Quixote perfectly well. Your little crying fit there won't change that. I was just having a go at you because I find you so absurd. Now perhaps we should stop talking to each other. |
I don't believe you understand the concept of the brilliant madman compared wit he rustic and ignorant.
And, I normally never talk to you except as a response, because I believe you are not worth.
Iván.

There are so many wrong things in this phrase . . . IDK where to start.  |
That usually means, "I disagree with you, but I have no justification."
There's really no point in us arguing. You'll start rambling about how it's necessary to sort out jointly owned property. I'll say that you're referring to things that can be done via contract. You'll talk about how much more difficult that will make things. I'll retort saying that the homogeneous set of rules makes for more complications though and that prenuptial are regularly used to alter these standard agreements, further stating that you ignore the difficulty inherent in politicizing an issue by making it a portion of the law. Then you'll insult the American legal system and say something factually inaccurate about legal hierarchy. If the discussion goes on long enough, you'll start making void comments like the one you just made.

No, I have plenty of justifications, it's just that I don't want to waste any of my time discussing with somebody as thick and short-sighted as yourself; somebody that, despite hating the "Bwig Bwad Guvirment" still uses the internet, something mostly developed and supported by the US government to this day, among other inexcusable double standards.

How about contributing to the thread instead of de-railing it with useless and unimportant personal views about something that has nothing to do with gay rights?

Did time fold in upon itself?

Apparently your selective reading missed that

Is there a rule that allows the closing of a thread not for being offensive, but for having the dumbest, most retarded arguments expressed in it?

Ivan: I wasn't offering a serious analysis of Don Quixote, I was taking one well-known aspect of the character to make a joke about you. I think you're having a sulk while trying to act like you're not. PRESENTING: IVAN AND HUMOUR Comedian: A man and a friend are playing golf one
day at their local golf course. One of the guys is about to chip onto the green
when he sees a long funeral procession on the road next to the course. He stops
in mid-swing, takes off his golf cap, closes his eyes, and bows down in
prayer.
His friend says: “Wow, that is the
most thoughtful and touching thing I have ever seen. You truly are a kind
man.”
The man then replies: “Yeah, well we
were married 35 years.” Ivan: I really don't think somebody would be playing golf on the day of their wife's funeral. Clearly you don't understand the deep bonds of love and affection that grow between a man and woman after so long living together. But only between a man and a woman because two guys wouldn't grow that close together after spending 35 years in each others arms, the Romans said so. Comedian: What? Is this some kind of performance art?

Your jokes are always rude and arrogant.
But IMO you're a jerk, so no problem

Since excuses were invented, no one admits being mistaken.

On the other hand, you have no problem acting like you are (sadly).

There should be, but that would close down three-quarters of the whole internet.
The real difficulty with situations like this as an Admin is having to pick a side. I mean do I go with the side that has the best argument, the one that's been the least dumbest, the person who hit the report button and played the victim card first or simply the one that's ticked me off the least? And when there are four victims involved in two seperate arguments is the problem is doubled, or do I just pick one and slap the other three? I have to be careful here or I'll be accused of not being impartial, of disliking people who study law or who teach or something highly irrational like that... Of course it would a lot easier of one of the victims/combatants were blue-collar, I'd rather trust a man who works with his hands, but alas no, these are educated professional people (or those in training to be educated professional people). Or do I single out a suitable scapegoat like that young fellow-me-lad there who's contributed sod all but snarky self-portrait jpegs and leave it at that?
Of course people could just stop doing whatever it is they are doing, take a step back and just look at themselves.
See, Moderation.. a tricky business, it's not like trying to pick your favourite child...  oh, wait, yes it is. Okay I know now.

I've read parts of Don Quixote and I don't think he was a homosexual at all.

Ivan: Oh for god's sake. You're in such a hurry to claim the moral high ground, it's absolutely disgusting. At least I'm honest about my lack of respect for you. Fact is that when people make a joking reference to something, people don't usually care if that reference accurately encapsulates every aspect of its subject. I don't think you think this either but your whole MO around here is affecting to be humble while actually trying to draw attention to how vastly superior you consider yourself. Anyway, Don Quixote was a homosexual and it's a shame that Sancho and he couldn't enter into a polygamous relationship with Rosinante because the Romans had studied etymology at law school and that is my final word on this subject which means there's plenty more where that came from.

Gosh, for people who claim to be so tolerant, there's a venomous lack of tolerance in this thread.
