Well, let me just say that I am a total moron for even bothering to look at this thread and even bigger one for taking the time to reply to it.

I am reserving all name-calling of my reply to refer to myself only and no one else.

i honestly have no idea what i am . i'd have to say libertarian if pressed cuz i tend to agree with a lot of what radar and UT say. but i prefer to be a pickandchoosist as i am about religion.

oh, and right on about the new guy. it's not the message so much as the delivery. obviously a sociopath. probably a bed wetter, too.

Do you propose a debate about the use of names?

I suggest, although risky in abundance (like beading or colorful fringe), well done name calling (like a crisp corded edge) can bring much to a written debate.
Point 1: color and character, give it some zing and lubrication
Point 2: reveal underlying emotional content, to be used by either party in further volley
Point 3: derail the banter into more interesting tangents unconsidered beforehand

So what is well done?
1. Surprising associations
2. Timed and spare- you got to wait for it
3. Nested within a larger observation

Well, this IS the dregs of the internet universe. The place is called "the Cellar," not "the Penthouse," for a reason. Give me a moment and I'll remember what the reason is. Meanwhile, I'm supposed to call someone a name? hmmmm...

OK, Lookout is a wussy boy who reads Canadian poetry! :p

thanks HM. that was a more mature response than i was preparing.

NG you sound pretty bitter. do you feel inadequate in some way? maybe it's your rank? feel stuck as a SPC with that next stripe juuuust out of reach?

edit: oh, yeah i forgot to call you a name. cumbubble breath seems appropriate.

[quote=warch]Do you propose a debate about the use of names?

The point was debate with something profound. If I say something to the effect that Liberals have the tendency to jump to use the race card during elections, don't reply with, "You are dumb." Give me something, and then call me dumb.
