I wondered how long it would take before you would resort to a personal attack.
Hmmm...and refering to fellow ASL'ers as "lazy" isn't a personal attack?Pitman said:I wondered how long it would take before you would resort to a personal attack.
Calling anyone "lazy" for any reason is still a personal attack. The fact that you think it is true doesn't have any bearing on the issue. After all your "opinion" on the matter doesn't automatically equal a cosmic truth (hard as that is for you to believe).Pitman said:Do you mean my saying that people who design scenarios without doing any research, rationalizing that by calling them "representative" of some sort of action, are being lazy?
If so, then obviously, that is not a personal attack. Indeed, by definition it is not a personal attack.
should have been a lawyer.... many weasel words.Pitman said:A personal attack is an attack against a specific person. When you call me arrogant, that is a personal attack. When someone says something like "Texans are idiots," that is not a personal attack, unless there is something in the context which makes it clear that the statement was referring to a specific person.

Not to me since I am specifically trying to be an arse to the "Pitman". Everyone else is just getting caught in the crossfire.MrP said:should have been a lawyer.... many weasel words.
Give it a rest guys, you're both acting like arses.
Was that a personal attack? :whist:
Cheers
Thank you for the advice. But, Tate man, maybe this thread could have been interesting (to me, it could sure be) if you stopped to pollute it with your "pitman bashing" hobby. Thanks and PeaceTater said:BTW, one need only stop following the thread to avoid said crossfire.

Well, since you continue to follow it I assume you must still find it interesting...or is it the car wreck effect?crabe tambour said:Thank you for the advice.

Naaa...not possible...crabe tambour said:Man, maybe you can consider that you are not alone on this thread. Possible ? That other participants give some points of view that could interest other readers. Possible ? That each of your intervention is not about the main subject but just about reacting against what Pitman says (again again and again). Possible? That each of your intervention stops the debate for a while or direct it on your personnal child-war. Possible ? That anyone don't give a **** about your child war . Possible? That you waste our time on Internet by polluting a topic (again again and again) wich could interest us if you stop for a while to parasite it in the name of your child war. Possible?
Just try to consider that, wise man. Thanks
"Car wreck effect"... Lol. You're not so big

We go 30-70 (me 70!) on the take and you got a deal...crabe tambour said:he's great... :laugh: I want him in my freaks show.
If you had any Cultural IQ you might have a slightly different attitude. :cheeky:Pitman said:I wondered how long it would take before you would resort to a personal attack.
