AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, as hominem much?

In less than two hours, the new kid, our self appointed Hall Monitor and resident pompous ass, seen lecturing all and sundry about the logical fallacy of ad hominem all over this board, is promptly hoisted on his own petard, and revealed for the flaming hypocrite that he is. The bigger the front, the bigger the back, tight ass.

Perknose, my post was not ad hominem. I did not criticize him, I criticized his posts. Try and understand the difference between what someone argues/posts/etc and what someone IS.

And by now you should know that your post is full of ad hominem attacks.

Infohawk - Go back and read tnitsuj's posts over time.

As his post here in this thread, his titles compared to the actual articles are a sarcastic way of him expressing his opinion.

Now you're guilty of making faulty assumptions in your posts.

Michael

 

[Infohawk]

Michael, which false assumption is that?

 

[Michael]

The assumption where discussing anything with you is worth me time.

My bad.

I'm getting slow in my old age not to recognize your particular species of troll.

Trying to contend that the above isn't a wholly unsupported personal cheap shot, ie, ad hominem, is ludicrous.

And please, stop lecturing me, and everyone here -- most all of us here know EXACTLY what an ad hominem attack is, we engage in it all the time, twit.

Michael, it is your prerogative to not respond to my posts.

Calling me a troll is yet another personal attack. If you cannot handle a debate, just bow out. There's no reason to get personal. I am just responding to posts. And not once have personally attacked someone. In this case I merely pointed out the OP could edit his other posts. I will not post again in this thread because there is no topic.
