For the last time, I never stopped reading your fucking posts, you little twat.
Yes, you were complaining about how you were so offended, by me accusing you of "not paying attention" (which you weren't), that you ALMOST stopped reading.
And there you are, telling me how you "never actually stopped reading my posts"... while insisting how you hadn't misread anything I'd written.... just "not bought it"... and then you're telling me how not everything is irony... LOL!
Sometimes, people can read every stupid piece of shit that comes out of your bilge-spewing fingers and still, gasp, happen to not buy it.
Yes, but in your case, you weren't really paying attention, rather than understanding and "not buying" it.
I can dig that shit up you know, but what for? You've just provided another example of that right here :D
Just FYI, on internet forums, and in real life debates, it matters less how right you actually are to the God of Absolute Knowledge, and much, much more, how you can ARGUE that you're right.
And arguing means, backing up. Right is whoever can back up. Wrong is whoever can't, or can't defend the others' argument.
So if I say you have misread my post (almost as if you hadn't paid attention), and can demonstrate how I said one thing while you responded to the other, WITH NOTHING BUT AN ANGRY RANT FROM YOU IN RESPONSE, then that means, for the time being, I'm right.
If you've understood my post, but don't show any signs of it, don't reply to a single point in it, and are behaving exactly as if you would if you hadn't read it (almost so much it'd take a miracle for you to actually have read it), then for all intents and purposes, I can say you haven't paid attention to it, and I'd be right.
"Show, don't tell", as an old writing rule says.
You can SAY that you've "read and understood everything", but you'll have to SHOW that in order to be believed.
And it doesn't help if what you're showing, is the exact opposite - like when you're clearly arguing against a strawman. You may BELIEVE you're arguing against the right thing, which is why you SAY "hey listen fucktard I got all!!", but it's OBVIOUS FROM YOUR POST that, actually, you haven't.
So again, back up and demonstrate, otherwise it ain't legitimate.
So there, I've given you some well-meaning advice on how to effectively argue on the internet, and not come off as an angry laughing stock. Will you kindly accept that, or react like a major dick?
Go fuck yourself.
Wow; you little twat; now that was rude! ;)
Seriously, though, doesn't help you either if you accuse me of acting like an "asshole", while simultaneously being ruder than I've ever been, let alone to you ;)
Now, speaking of irony...
And, seriously, not EVERYTHING is irony, as much as you'd like it to be so.
No, it's rather as much as you make it to be, and it just happens to be as much as I like it, too.
It's not like I just said "oh the irony!" and then ran away - I explain exactly how a given remark drips of unintentional irony (that's, in a nutshell, "amusing hypocrisy without realizing it", like telling someone something, while actually that something applies to you, and not to him; two levels of irony if this something is said in a sarcastic mode while actually being wrong in the sarcastic sense, but right if taken at face value; three levels if that's how you're perceiving your opponent, while actually it doesn't apply; and so forth), I also enjoy it more that way.
So I'm afraid you can't just shrug it off as "no, it isn't" after all those delicious breakdowns :D
You come off as very angry for someone who just wasn't pointed to a shitload of hilarious unintentional irony in their own posts, though. Why so?
Seriously - as I've said above, back your shit up.
because you feel compelled to prove yourself right against it.
Well, so far, I've been quoting a dictionary to support my view against someone who said I was challenging the dictionary (there's some irony for you right there), so not sure exactly what you mean by "proving myself right against it".
At any rate, this is pretty much how I've always seen the word "irony" being used. What, you know some other definition? Oops.
