    I quoted you incredulously asking why someone would post and comment about this and then made a comical version of you incredulously asking why someone would post and comment about this. That’s not a straw man, unless you’re trying to tell me that you’re a scarecrow (because you certainly need a brain).

      you misrepresented what I said to make the argument easier to defeat.

      when your unimaginative rhetorical tricks fail, you hurl insults.

        You’re complaining about hurling insults? Here’s you in this thread:

        what’s your point? just to come here and whine about it?

        are logical fallacies all you guys know?

        “nuh-uh” isn’t a convincing argument. most people learn this when they’re 5.

        “I know you are but what am I?” is not a convincing argument. most people learn this when they’re 5.

        your inability/refusal to understand is not my problem

        I’m amazed you didn’t snap your own neck with those mental gymnastics

        Insufferable
