How To Argue

I doubt anybody would want to read that par se. In 1999 over 99% of people hated your posts per se, e.g. a strong view of disestablishmentariansm is established when they are read Q.E.D.

indeed. Wij tried this with me once in the squirrel thread and the strain reality came under was shocking. thank god we managed to [dis]agree in time, who knows what would have happened

 

[Munkey-]

[*Kornholio*]

no you didn't

 

[bodhi]

I think you all have some serious disease, for eg AIDS. ie, you are all AIDS victims per se. Q.E.D.
