Oh Holy FUCK! Scott Plaid isn’t a teenager OR a college student! In fact he isn’t even human!
Douglas Adams wasn’t writing fiction !
He’s a **Vogon **- compare:
Case Closed
I win
They probably have their preferences set to 40 posts per page (which would give them 21 pages).
I’m on page 17, and mine is set to “Forum Default”, which appears to be 50 posts per page.
This can be changed in the User Control Panel, under the “Edit Options” link (“Thread Display Options”).
Ahhhh, thank you for clearing up my ignorance. And I already went and made a screen shot to prove I’m not crazy, but the screen shot shows up as about the size of a postage stamp on photobucket. Drat!
More evidence than a screen shot may be required…
Good point. Hrm. Well, okay.
In that case, I’ll point out that every night I talk with the mothership via one of the fillings in my teeth. Now, tell me, would a crazy person be allowed to talk to the mothership?
I thought not.
Nope, I win because I said so.*
*duffer. Magna Cum Laud of the University of Plaid.
I will point out that I have this.
So, clearly, I am not insane.
And, Duffer you cannot win. I’m sure Scott has disagreed with you before, being that you’re a moustache twirling evil conservative type guy. As such, you lose, he wins. It always happens like that.
Ten bucks says our buddy links to this quote sometime in the future.
You may be on to something here.
And fifteen says he inserts random commas into it.

Sayyyyyyyy…
Coult it be that Scott read one of those “Commit random acts of kindness” bumper stickers and misread it as “commas”, maybe? :dubious:
Nah. I think he’s just a big fan of Boy George. You know, Comma Chameleon?
Comma comma comma comma comma chameleon …
Insert’em here,
Insert’em theeeeeee-ee-e-eeere …
…winning would be easy
if debating was like my dreams
just incoherent thought streams
just incoherent thought streeeeeeeams…
Ah, shit. I got nothin’.
“Oh, comma, ye faithful,
Joyful and triumphant
Oh, comma, oh comma
To beeee-eeat them all”
Pttt. Mine’s still the best.
I win!
“They’re coming to take me away, Ha-Ha!”
Well, let me see. It is true that there were internment camps. How did the government get the information of who to send to the internment camps? From what I can tell, it was that they were non-citizens, and the legal citizen relatives of them. It seems disingenuous to claim that the citizens relatives were not mentioned in the forms giving details of aliens. Thus, registration led to round ups of citizens. However, people are telling me I am wrong. What proof do I have? The wiki article, and my reading of an old magazine article. (article not available in archive) What proof does the other side have? Telling me I am wrong. Odd, that. You would think that if you want me to know I am wrong, you would tell me how it really went. I am going to go to a bookstore, and see what I can see on this issue, later today.
That sounds possible, save for the fact that in my experience, many people on this board never give up. Cite: this thread As far I can tell, people like Bricker don’t stop posting because they gave up, but because they have no argument to throw out. A case in point can be seen here.
Actually, you might have noticed my agreeing on that point in many posts in this thread.
I agree with that point. You would see me doing just that, if the opposition differed about economic maters, or some other thing with no clearly definable right or wrong. That is not the case however. For everything I argue in support of here, (NPR, equal rights, etc.) my side has “There are better reasons for it then against it.” Meanwhile, the other side has “We can make a strawman of the argument, and poke holes in it.” One side is clearly correct, while the other side just takes what the president thinks is right, and struggles to defend it.
I don’t see how. True, he might not have been convinced by my reasons, but in every past thread I can recall, he has had holes poked in his arguments by myself and others, and has failed to show how he really is correct. Where do you perceive his winning, ever? (I ask this with the full knowledge that “winning” is often not possible.) It seems that he tows the party line, for the most part. When absurdities of his defense are pointed out to him, he switches to another tack, without admitting he was wrong on the first point. (Sure I do something like it, but I hold that I was right the first time) Not very steady ground. Can you think of any discussions with me where he has clearly show himself to be right?
The victory speech was not because I was right. That would tie in with what you are saying.
No, it was because I clearly knew more about the subject, and yet Rick would not admit he was wrong on the issue.
Don’t you mean “they’re comma to take me away, Ha-Ha!”?
Got it. It works as a joke when read the way I read it. However, that was not the intended meaning. Well, it looks like my laugh-track is busted, time to get a new one.
