> [@D\_Anconia](#): > > Wow, you’re dumber than Dr. Deth. Given your stupidity, your willful ignorance, and your singular lack of imagination (one that makes a single dimension view seem like Vivid 3-D Technicolor), I’ll take that as a compliment. By the way, nice reference to quotes on That Other Message Board about **Dr Deth**. Even I wouldn’t do that in The Pit. Nice Move…! 😃 > [@D\_Anconia](#): > > It wasn’t eight years, it was all in one fucking post, #68 of the thread in question. Her first post in the thread, Oh Assholey Trollie, mentions her memory of something that happened in her neighborhood of someone she knew. Thats right, Lite-Brite, memory of what happened in her neighborhood… a murder that happened 8 years ago. A Memory of 8 years ago. Read it again. Still don’t get that? Go Read It Fucking Again. When **Surreal** tried to subtley play the “You’re A Liar” card, she posted a second time about it, an article to effictively prove that, yes, this man did exist and yes he was murdered. Her only error she admitted in the third post was saying that she thought the family found him when an employee found him. That’s the point which you so gleefully harp on, Troll. Now… imagine knowing a person who died violently. Tell me that normal people will go up to the greaving family (at the Viewing perhaps?) and grill them about who discovered the body. No, normal people don’t do that. Ignorant Internet Trolls with Zero social skills might (or might say they might), but in reality that doesn’t happen too often. (Perhaps that’s a shame, as the ass-kicking that would follow would be both well deserved AND entertaining.) You see, just because you Read it 15 minutes ago, Dr D’Anconia, doesn’t mean it Happened 15 minutes ago. Now… diddums I spoon-feed that to you enough that your small mind can comprehend it and still chew Hubba-Bubba gum? :dubious: > [@D\_Anconia](#): > > I never said a word to, or even about **Ambivalid** , and I never complained about the Capital Gains Tax. Funny, here are **the quotes** exposing that as a lie: [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=18848792#post18848792](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=18848792#post18848792) > [@Ambivalid](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ambivalid/737174/137): > > > [@Ambivalid](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ambivalid/737174/131): > > > > [That’s what’s so damn funny about Boo Boo Foo’s and D’Anconia’s assumptions that he must be some kind of helpless invalid, too weak to even pick up a Kleenex.](http://i.imgur.com/1UWghAE.jpg) > > I made no such assumption.

Go Suck It. > [@Bricker](#): > > **Boo Boo Foo** recently started a Pit thread about Ambivalid – perhaps you are mistaken about this claim? Or perhaps I failed to notice another instance involving Ambivalid, one in which D’Aconia was picking on him? And I also missed the Capital Gains thing–was that another mistaken identity? Or was it my miss? Perhaps you ARE mistaken, **Bricker**. That was the thread. I said he posted in it, not that he started it. That’d be your first error, **Bricker**. Thanks for admitting it. The discussion was about Ambivalid, about a wheelchair, and assuming someone in a wheelchair needed 24-hr care. Here’s a quote from him: > [@Ambivalid](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ambivalid/737174/104): > > assuming that someone in a wheelchair needs 24/7 care Now **Bricker** , as a make-up question to off-set your mistake, from that same thread here is an easy question: In the thread titled “Ambivalid”, who… either posting or mentioned in that thread… actually uses a wheelchair…? No help from the audience. You have 30 seconds. **cue Jeopardy music** (Its OK, **Bricker**. Thanks for admitting your mistake. Again. 😛 ) > [@Bricker](#): > > And I also missed the Capital Gains thing–was that another mistaken identity? Or was it my miss?

The primary purpose of progressive tax rates is to reduce income inequality. That’s government social engineering, by definition. That was your Miss, **Bricker**.
