I REALLY love it when you read 3 years worth of posts in a sitting: 12 visitors/785 pageviews You ain't hurtin my bank account darlin- you're boosting my ego. Bless yer heart.
HA! The thing in internet debate is to be unoffendable. I'm not perfect, probably, somewhere- I have a line. I have been called somethings recently I find downright hilarious. If you want to beat me, really stick it to me, make a logical argument on why I'm wrong and back it up with actual-provable fact. Screaming epithets (even the creative ones), facebook stalking me so you can find info (Muslim lover- adorable), and resorting to any ad hominem (look it up hunny you can do it)- makes me think you're stupid and that your point is so undefendably asinine you can't come up with anything better.
So there you are, looking through my profile pictures, seeing how freaking precious my kids are, reading my blog, I've got directions from here.
Step 1: Can you defend your point from a humanitiarn perspective- we bleeding hearts are big on this.
Step 2: Does your argument follow a logical thought pattern? (That means make sense to normal people.)
Step 3: Do you have reputable sources/studies/stats to back up factual claims. (This is where you google.)
Step 4: Are you attacking the argument or idea (smart)- or the person because you don't like them now?
TIPS and HINTS:
If you're going to argue- google first. Learn how to understand a source. "Natural News" not a source.
If you're attacking the person, if your entire point to just "make them feel bad"- you've lost. You're just trying to make you "feel better" and whatever issue your passionate about- you don't give a damn. You just don't like being disagreed with. So then, is this worth it anyway? I'm a stranger.
If you want to claim to be on the righteous side of angels, you better make sure you're over there. Hate is not coupled with righteousness. So ya look stupid.
So, thanks for reading this blog! I could kiss your face but you've got a dirty mouth. I hope this helps you. If you're certifiable or getting uber stalker-crazy rage because of an internet stranger (it's happened more than once) please call your local mental health agency. (Not. Kidding.) No internet stranger should piss anyone off to the crazy-rage point. So, this is the only not condescending portion of the blog- if you're ragey, I should die, get what's coming to me: mad- you need to call someone and perhaps have your meds adjusted.
Keep upping those pageviews and visitor counts!! We get anywhere between 10-50 vistors everyday, when you get all pissy, it skyrockets!! Take some Malox for that indigestion and keep your blood pressure down dear.
Toodles!
