Skeletal anatomy of a discussion with sgtclub.
Quote:
Atticus Grinch
sgtclub: [loaded rhetorical question indicating obviously desired result]
sucker: [observation that obviously desired result leads to a logical absurdity]
sgtclub: Who said [obviously desired result] or [logical absurdity]? I didn't. I haven't posted on how I come down on that issue.
sucker: [patient explanation of how obviously desired result leads to logical absurdity]
sgtclub: Whatever. You're mischaracterizing what I said. All I asked was [loaded rhetorical question indicating obviously desired result]. I haven't expressed an opinion as to the answer, and I never meant [logical absurdity].
[dead silence]
[repeat]
