Read my lips…S.P.E.C.I.F.I.C.S. if you don’t mind.

I like to learn from my mistakes, so if someone thinks I’ve made one, I want to know what it is!

[QUOTE=Wikipedia]

An ad hominem argument, also known as argumentum ad hominem (Latin: “argument to the man”, “argument against the man”) consists of replying to an argument or factual claim by attacking or appealing to a characteristic or belief of the person making the argument or claim, rather than by addressing the substance of the argument or producing evidence against the claim. The process of proving or disproving the claim is thereby subverted, and the argumentum ad hominem works to change the subject.

There you go.

Is that it!

Did you really think I was unaware what a ad hominem meant? Well, now you’ve been a little bit more specific, can you cite the ad hominem which closed the thread?

[QUOTE=ivan astikov]
Can I get a second opinion?

Yes, you can keep the “Kick me!” sign on your back for as long as you remain here.

I want to know EXACTLY why it was put on first. ( And if it’s so obvious, why am I not getting kicked everywhere I go?)

You need to keep track of your own cites.

Next question?

Kicking is restricted to the Pit.

You put it there, so ask yourself.

Do you want me to keep still while you try and kick me? You might have a better chance of landing one then, instead of just swinging your foot about like a silly twat!

Must be a slow day for you Muffin.

The troll is no longer entertaining us.

Please quit feeding him so that he will move on to the next attention getting attempt.

As far as I’m aware, that’s not a pit-able offence yet!

Does someone who’s impartial want to explain why my thread here How Do Big Game Hunters Justify Their 'Sport'? - Great Debates - Straight Dope Message Board got closed, bearing in mind even if you removed my 65 rambling, nonsensical offerings, there were still another 49 people, contributing 146 posts, and that it still seemed to be of interest to readers?

Perhaps you should ask the moderator who shut it down.

I thought I’d invite anyone else to offer an opinion first, to see if I was just being touchy!

A good rule of thumb is that if you think you’re being overly touchy/sensitive/a jerk, what-have-you, then you most likely are.

Many threads have been started asking “Am I overreacting?” or similar and usually the answer is yes.

158

Well why can’t people stop beating around the fucking bush, and tell me exactly what I’ve done, so I can avoid doing it again?

Was Tomndebb’s closing post confusing?

You were born. Don’t do it again.
