That's nothing but a distinction without a difference.

Not to the person on the receiving end! And there you go again with the "clever" insults. Your 11-year-old understands it, but I don't. Like I said, just because you think you are such a sophisticated user of language, doesn't mean that people don't get what you're saying or that it isn't name calling or insulting. | | | Hal | | | Last edited: by hal9g |

If that is what you believe then you have absolutely no understanding of communication, but that doesn't particularly surprise me. In order for communications to be effective, there must be a transmitter and there must be a receiver. If the recipient receives a different message than the transmitter sent, then it's pointless. Your meaning is quite clear, in spite of your protestations. Quoting The MadMartian Quote: Quoting hal9g:
Quote: And there you go again with the "clever" insults. Your 11-year-old understands it, but I don't. Thank you. Another cutesy, clever response. Apparently I need to explain that I was simply repeating what you said, not agreeing with it. I really thought you were smart enough to figure that out. Quoting TheMadMartian: Quote: Quoting hal9g

Yes, I am purposely mocking you because you seem to believe that you can tell people not to do things, then turn around and do them yourself. Oh, I see. You make a distinction between name calling and insulting. Name calling is a no-no, but insulting and mocking people are perfectly OK. I'll have to keep that in mind for the future. Quoting TheMadMartian: Quote: And with that, I am done with this thread. I will pack my "clever" insults away...until the next time you decide you have the right to tell people their opinions are irrelevant. You might want to consider packing them away for good, as they do you no service, except to make you appear small (I can say that because I am not saying that you are small, right). As far as my comment about opinions being irrelevant, if you would recall, I applied that to myself as well, because I was talking about the Rules, which are black and white and not open to personal opinions. But as usual you took it out of context. I am still waiting for you to show me where the Rules say to "enter what is wanted...the company responsible for the realease of the film", but I won't hold my breath waiting for a response. | | | Hal | | | Last edited: by hal9g |

Of course they're not, which is why we never argue about them. --------------- |
