Tim's right. It's taken me over a week just to get on the 'net. Every other computer I've tried has just sat there sulking at me.But the chances of me getting IRC aren't good, especially at a time when everyone could go.
But quickly:
"For you see, I understand rationality. You apparently do not. I respond to the points you make. You do not respond to mine. I want to find the truth. You've already made up your mind that what I have to say is utter crap, without giving your reasons. I have evidence on my side. You have naught but faulty reasoning."
Now, just imagine that this is, oh, I don't know, an evolution debate. Now, imagine it's gone on for about 134 posts. I can see about 5 people saying that exact same thing to Omega as he's just said to me.
"Tell me: which one of us seems more intelligent, eh?"
Oh, you might very well be more intelligent. I've never made any claims to having a huge IQ. Hell, it's taken me until I'm 21 to actually get to university. So yeah, you might be more intelligent. Doesn't stop you from being an arrogant twat though.
"I'm calling you out. Actual, moderated debate. Chat room. Name your time and moderator."
Sorry, for a minute there it seemed like I was in the old West. Are we settling this mano a mano?
"I personally suggest Charles, but that's just me. IRC seems like the best venue, but ICQ might work better. Pick one. Just so long as it's someone I know. Your slander ends NOW."
Oooh, I'm weally, weally scwared.
to First: "Oh, BTW, you'd be a good mod, too."
I'm really glad you've climbed out of his butt, y'know.
Getting Daryus to moderate it would be a bit unfair. Charles no doubt doesn't care. And if we picked First, I'd have to wade through a sea of dribble to get there. Unless you kept your toungue where it belongs.
But, there's a far more important reason not to do it. I actually don't care enough. I'm not going to waste my time looking up loads of pointless facts about a subject that doesn't interest me just for you to ignore them all. I don't feel the need to parade my ego around in front of everyone to make myself feel all manly. I only posted here because, quite frankly, your head has managed to block all exits to the building, and it's only so long before we run out of air. And, in my own small way, I was trying to make with the funny. This place is somewhere to hang around, to have fun. If you don't realise that, so be it. It's not gonna stop me.
Oh, and is it still slander if it's actually true?
