My dad told me when I was young to never argue with people about politics or money. I never listened, I guess.

Rather than argue, what does one do? Beat someone up and impose your will? Give them information, and do not defend it, relying upon righteousness to win through?
Does one do nothing? No. I'm sure even the most pacifistic person would fight for the one they loved. I'm sure a man who had never argued since he was a boy would plead with robbers not to kill his wife.
Argument is the crank of history.

I'm so good at arguing. I am constantly sonning people (Quake, Mauzip, Engel, etc...). AG, it's good you're taking this class; maybe after completing the course you can come here and join Owen and me in the Sonning. 8)

You're so enlightened!

Here's a rule of thumb:
If you constantly have to bring attention to the fact that "son" somebody, you aren't very good at it.
-
Hey, there's nothing wrong with bragging. If you want, you can brag about getting sonned.

i dont mean like lets say Trauma thinks OJ killed tha girl and Owen thinks he didnt and Trauma calls Owen a bitch for not thinking tha same thing i dont want this to get personal and shyt u feel me?
It's a very good idea not getting personal.I did that at high school.I was against editing music and the class had to be for editing.This one girl,oh no i mean bitch,kept on yanking about the same things and when she said: "if you ask me,they curse to get attention." for the 100th time i got pissed off and threw out something absolutely true: "You demand attention yourself all the time!" I shouldn't have said that of course and it resulted in getting hit by her.But luckily the bitch is an addict and can't hit that hard. ;D ;D
Anyways,you wanted to have a subject. What about this one?
Experiments on animals should be prohibited.
I argue: They have to be prohibited because it's cruel to the animals that are unvoluntarily experimented on.

I was being sarcastic. Everything you said was just blatant agitate the statement type stuff. It's like somebody saying the sky is blue, then you go into a discourse on why the sky is actually black.

LOL... Trauma's so on point its not funny.

Sorry to continue being contradictory, but I wasn't talking to you, Ronnie. I was talking to Overseer.
Your comment was flippant, and didn't spring a response; Overseer then gave a slightly less facetious rejoinder (for this is, surely, banter, rather than debate). So I decided to ask him the question - though you are welcome to answer.
And no, dear audience, it is not starting off. I did not post to agitate the thread. I posted because it caught a passing train of thought (haha, my puns are FUNAY), and I let it keep going.

As O has caught on to, because he's British and I think humour runs their lives or something, LOL, the whole joke is that you post things just to sound smart, it's in the way you talk, the way you argue, everything. You are smart, but you force it down everybody's throat; for instance; NEWS FLASH, Shakespearean prose went out a long time ago, buddy. "For this is, surely, banter.." URGH, no wonder your girlfriends are fake.

just like you had to unlock that "abortion" thread after I said it was over to have your final say.
-
OOOOoooooohhhh.... I KNEW when he did that it was gonna piss you off, LOL!
-
well ya know me better than he does then ;)
-
wait are tha 2 O's beefing??? Owen and Over??? man im shocced wait... we are debating thank you... im out!!!
-
I want to know if "facetious rejoinder" has ever been said by anyone in real life.
lol
-
^ a quick search found that it hasnt been used on any web pages, but has in newsgroups. most common usage by 1 ) Leo DiCaprio fans, 2) people who think they're vampires ;D
(patronising mode on)
So my good fellow, ones non-facetious rejoinder to the question at hand is in fact that yes it has been used in the vernacular of others, albeit not I assume in the context of daily discourse.
(patronising mode off)
(normal person speak on)
yes its been used, but only by people who want to make themselves sound above the rest, and certainly not as part of daily speech.
i.e. by those trying to maintain an air of superiority or exclusivity. fronting like this probably shows some kind of underlying social deficit.
and i'm out!! ;)
-
Did I ever deny I had a social deficit?
P.S. If you can find "facetious rejoinder" in any Shakespeare comedy, or any of his period, I'll give you a dime, you ass hats. Your insults need to have some basis in truth.
And Trauma, enjoy those 10 wives.
-
^ deleted his own acct. :-\
-
bye owen
-
Major overeaction
-
THANK GOD someone besides me has decided to call out Owen on his trying to sound smarter than he is. I got into that with him a couple months ago, and no one backed me up lol. Where were you guys then? :)
I swear, give a freshman in high school a dictionary and he thinks he's a scholar.
Enjoy your fake woman Owen. Give her one for ol Hector.

on point trauma .. he's often redundant, he is smart but for some reason he wants to keep milking it for everything it is.. gets annoying.. he's a good guy but i guess he's tryin to get some attention with this deleting deal. he's been here too long to quit over some useless bs or cuz you and seer are teamin up on him..
-
^ no we arent 'teaming up' on him.
trauma said something i agreed with and had actually thought myself.. it doesnt mean we're getting married... far from it.
-

No.. if you were banned it was for a just reason.
