Corporal Punishment?
#23
RE: Corporal Punishment?
Cinjin Wrote:Wait a minute - I know where I recognize this argument ... this is a Statler argument: "What I say is true because I wrote it, and what I wrote must be true because I've backed it up with unqualified statements that have no more validity to them than a moon made out of cheese"

And I've heard this one too... it is an argument from association, which is a logical fallacy Heart

Quote:The phrases you used, "balance tells people you are unbalanced" and "You can't have balance when it comes to control" are absolutely laughable you silly silly little girl. I think perhaps your own skewed perception of the world around you is influencing your ability to discern the obvious from the ludicrous.

I infact never said that balance tells people you are unbalanced Tongue Because you can't have balance in the first place when it comes to control: trying for it is a sign of imbalance Smile

My perception is skewed? This coming from someone with a blue name? Tiger

Quote:This last post of yours is so logically flawed I'm starting to really think that you're just fuckin with me aren't you!

Yes, hon.... and I'm also laughing at Machiavelli who (bless his core philosophies) makes almost every argument a dichotomy. I just reread The Prince, you see... and while many of his examples are amusing and his basis is strong: the way he defends these is ridiculous Heart Makes him an entertaining read... but I'm far past the point where I could find that enlightening Smile Plan to reread The Art of War next.

(I feel I must spell this out so stupid people get it: I have just Machiavellian trolled you. Sleepy Can I have a hug since most people can't tell the difference between me screwing with people and me stating what I think? Smile)
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
