This is exactly what I mean. I've seen this tantrum a million times. Your ego just can't handle admitting you have made a mistake. So you'll keep pretending you didn't, despite not having the balls to actually argue the point, because you know you did imply with your wording that all experience is "randomly gifted".
And to do that, you start of with pathetic attempts at ad hominems. (Which again, isn't synonymous with "insult".)
No matter how much I keep reiterating that my point is simply your poor wording, you can't accept it as such, and get so disturbed that you first try your shitty rhetoric and when it doesn't work, you change into silly oneliners like that, because you think replying even something completely irrelevant, will somehow make you "get the last word" and you think that's "winning".
But it won't affect your wording and it's implications. It's really not a lot to say "lol I made a mistake, poor wording, yeah", unless you're completely convinced you never make mistakes. Which you'll ofc argue against, while constantly avoiding the actual subject of your poor wording.
Then in like a few days you'll devolve to spamming "k" or something. Genuinely, seen this thousands of times.
One million tantrums! :O
See, defaulting to oneliners, because you literally can't address the subject of why you're in the thread, but your childish ego still forces you to reply something. Just like I said, and will continue saying. You're not gonna "win" this, I'll just keep reminding you of your publicly childish behaviour while you keep replying with a single line and smiley, because you're so ashamed.
Omg, but I only came here to "win"! Noo!!
Just like I said. You simply can't just say "maybe it wasn't the best wording, my mistake".
Instead you publicly make yourself an idiot by dancing exactly to my tune. Just like I said, you're unable to address anything.
The fact that you keep doing that sort of proves me right. ;>
except evil_shrubbery did say that. several comments and something like ten hours ago. they just didn't say that in the exact words you are demanding. is there a reason you want to have an argument?
No they didn't. They pretend to have said that.
It's like apologising to someone by saying "I'm sorry you think you deserve an apology" and then arguing "I already apologised actually" after implicitly stating that the other person didn't in fact even deserve an apology. Meaning that they're not actually sorry for anything, because "sorry you think you deserve an apology" isn't actually a real apology, is it?
I can see how someone wouldn't see the difference. If you're having problems, please ask for help.
please answer the question
Is there a reason you're asking me things, on a forum?
Wait what, is that what people on forums actually do? Oh no.
I'm not having any argument. I'm pointing out someone was mistaken. Is there a problem with that? No, I don't think there is, but I'm sure one person has a problem with it. ;>
so if you're, let me quote you, "not having any argument", put on your big girl panties and stop demanding everyone and everything conform to your exact language because you misread a single word, let me count, almost an entire day ago. chill the fuck out. people use language differently than you do.
No-one's forcing you to participate in this conversation.
Why the three week leave from Lemmy btw? Luckily the "other guy" was active when you weren't. Weirdly, you never comment at the exact same time. Almost as if someone who got shamed went and hopped on their alt.
"people use language differently from you"
Yeah, but that doesn't change how grammar works, does it?
This is about one person being incapable of saying "my mistake" and getting super annoyed. Like I've said, I've seen this tantrum a thousand times. :)
Wait, what on Earth happened to the other 999 thousands tantrums??
