And yet you decided to weigh in anyway. Amazing.
I made a general statement.
They have a point. Why play devil's advocate on a subject you admit to knowing nothing about?
Because I know enough to make a general statement which holds true in any circumstance.
Hmm yes very smart. Add a useless platitude to a thread you have no idea about or stake in. No background reading or nuance here, just thought terminating cliches! I wonder why nobody is praising your amazing intellect.
You state that nuance and circumstance can make the statement false? Present it.
No, I don't. It's just meaningless. You might as well have posted "water is wet".
Water is wet.
Oh yes of course, you were just saying some words. You freely admit not knowing the context but it didn't occur to you to, idk, educate yourself first? Nah, more important to just say words because idk, freezed peaches or something.
This is why no one likes Seppos.
