Some of you are aware of the poster brazil84, and the fact that

[ul]  
[li][he has his own set of debating rules](http://brazil84.wordpress.com/my-rules-of-debate/)[/li][li]he is often vague about, or evades specifying which propositions he’s arguing[/li][li]but he usually, by appearances, has an agenda[/li][li]he has a catch phrase: “Show me where I said that. Quote me.”; and [/li][li]that he at any time may decide that you haven’t abided by his rules and bid adieu (in the jollyest of ways).[/li][/ul]

He’s a huge dick.
