Please treat us like rational humans. ... Give us a bit more
credit than that, please.
[Demon]
It would be irrational to assume such a trait and it would be definitely
idiotic to freely give credit undeserved.
[Kalkor2]
My request mentioned nothing about assumptions. For example, I am treating
you as I would a rational human being, but I am fairly certain you are
anything but! <wink>
Furthermore, when you misquote someone, it is basic courtesy to indicate
that you have <snipped> something. It keeps from turning statements like
this: "I would sleep with you if and only if you were the last man on earth
and needed to produce offspring."
into statements like this: "I would sleep with you ... to produce
offspring."
[Kalkor]
Perhaps you would be taken more seriously in future if you used fewer
adjectives?
[Demon]
Shall we also refrain from the use of nouns and verbs? I'm positive that
would make communication between the members of this group difficult and
that's not to say it is effective anyway.
[Kalkor2]
No, I think you may continue to use nouns and verbs. They can be useful. You
may even throw in an adverb or two.
The tone of your reply contrasts with your approval rating on the bbs. Is
there a correlation here that needs investigating?
The haughty tone of your reply contrasts drastically with your low approval
rating on the bbs. Is there a correlation here that needs investigating?
The offensively haughty tone of your reply contrasts drastically with your
pitifully low approval rating on the bbs. Is there a correlation here that
needs investigating?
Food for thought, I hope.
