We are sniffing our own farts today.

so, so above the fray

Leaving in disgust never seems to be an option though. Maybe people who do that don't feel the need for the "Look at me!" posts before they do.

No need to whiteknight for the ole baw. He is well known for kneeling before other men. He would do it for you anyway.

Hank. You claim to be an attorney. You should know the elements of slander.

You also didnt originally say in lieu of facts and logic, just the usage of slander.
Yep. That's why I responded "it is not the presence of a perceived slander within an argument that signals defeat. It is slander as the argument which conveys the message."

Going after a man’s past transgressions is a thing. Not sure it’s a good thing. But it’s a thing. A thing often done here to “win”.

I’ve seen men go after a woman’s past for the purpose of a fleeting “win” on this forum too.

Slander is "a false and malicious statement about someone."

So when someone resorts to unproven insults about the person with whom they're arguing, just remember: the person using the insults is admitting they're wrong.

I hope this will save some time.


This only applies when the insult is all you have.

I like to insult people while also putting them down with the argument.

Well ok, that wasn't sent to me. I was one of the first to comment so I didnt see you saying that to someone else in the 8 pages that followed. Clarification should have been made to begin, with dont you think?

I was being genuine. You were right. I didn't explain it very well.

Sorry, again.
