    But then half the time you don't actually say what you think but instead some twisted exaggerated version.

    And the "this is what I think bye" thing is of course classically associated with irritating creationists.

    So you have to understand why people find the behavior irritating.

    i would like to point out that you are one of the few people who gets all up in arms about my engaging in hyperbole

    to most people it is obvious when i am and am not

    you get confused about it, which is understandable given the internet's lack of intonation or body language to tell how seriously someone means something

    that said if you could extend me the benefit of the doubt sometimes that'd be super

    like if i am saying something that seems extremely outrageous and monstrous to you perhaps instead of mounting on your steed and grabbing your lance you might stop and go "maybe he's just being overly aggressive in his point-making for effect"

    maybe

    anyway the thing with the creationists thing, i guess there certainly is the fact that they do that sort of thing, but then i don't do the "hi, bye!" thing in the same way so i don't know that it's equitable

    i don't go into a thread and like, quote a bible passage, and then say "this is how it is!" and then leave

    i give my opinion on a subject, and unless i feel like discussing that opinion or where i am coming from on it (rare, depending on the topic) i won't say anymore on the subject

    i don't mind when other people do this, golly does it infuriate some people

    it drives Qingu absolutely batshit crazy, he was on a god damn crusade to find out what religion i was just so he could find some way to attack it and then when he finally did he was so disappointed he whipped out a No True Scotsman and called it a day.

    I was not expecting that. I should have but I wasn't.

    There's no living with a killing. There's no goin' back from one. Right or wrong, it's a brand... a brand sticks. There's no goin' back. Now you run on home to your mother and tell her... tell her everything's alright. And there aren't any more guns in the valley.

    from the last thread, re: why I rather like Azumanga Daioh.

    I think that show really sticks out in a sea of deceptively similar crap. It's a show about females of a certain age where all the baggage that goes with the term "schoolgirl" doesn't apply. It (deliberately, IMO) shows up and contrasts all the nasty shit that make up every other anime about high school girls. For example, at no point in the show do any of the characters end up moping about relationships or basing their lives around boys. Or it has a character who is much younger than all the others and doesn't sexualize her at all. Or the way it calls out the way most anime endorses (at least tacitly) the oggling of "schoolgirls" via the creepy teacher character.

    And is funny. And the bits that come off a bit tired now where much less so when it was new and hadn't been imitated to death.

    What you think "makes sense" has nothing to do with reality. It just has to do with your life experience. And your life experience may only be a small smidgen of reality. Possibly even a distorted account of reality at that. So what this means is that, beginning in the 20th century as our means of decoding nature became more and more powerful, we started realizing our common sense is no longer a tool to pass judgment on whether or not a scientific theory is correct. - Neil Degrasse Tyson

    that he does

    it was just sorta surprising that after all this time he had some hate-blue-balls going then he finds out and then is like "oh, pfft, that's not even a real religion anyway and you aren't really religious" and he used that as a way to dismiss everything i said that was angering him

    it was sorta cute in its own way

    Look, Lisa wants me to tell you to stop handing out her number. I think you owe us her an apology for sending lonely, interested young foreign men her way.

    I'm hoping you actually called the number.

    Should I go see Kick-Ass?

    yes

    take me with you

    Thank you, and Pony too, for that advice.

    I started reading the comic when it came out, because Issue 1 looked interesting. "A geek tries to fight crime in a realistic way". Then by issue three you had a small girl bisecting people with a katana and that put me off. Although because of the movie I decided to finish it, and realise that the sword girl is much closer to the style of the story than issue one is. The story didn't go off in an unbelievable tangent, we were just misled by the first issue.
