Too bad those quotes contradict you.
You're saying that Three quotes where I'm mocking your intelligence contradicts the quote where I say I've had a few laughs at your stupidity? All right then, I fail to see how you can even know wether or not I actually did laugh while Writing them, and I don't see why these Three quotes only could cut as proof to it, considering all other quotes I've written.
Once again, you try to change the subject because you don't want to admit you're wrong. The simple fact is what you claim isn't automatically true.
Have you seen me argue that a Word is automatically true if I write it? No! What I've done is to state over and over that I did meant what I said when I wrote "symbolically". And that is the truth, I really meant it. You, on the other hand, has wasted a bunch of posts arguing that a Word isn't automatically true if I write it or not, to the Point that you're now only arguing on that subject, despite that I haven't said anything different. You've made your Point over and over, and I haven't even disagreed with it. All I've done is to state that I meant what I said. So I fail to see how I'm changing the subject by bringing up the original subject again. And I really fail to see how I'm wrong when I haven't argued for nor against your Point.
Knowing that you can't refute me, you resort to twisting my words to try to get an edge on me. Instead, you continue to reveal how desperate you've become.
You know, it almost feels like you practised what to say in front of a mirror, and then forgot that the ramble was supposed to be about somebody else.
Anything written by an individual is not automatically true.
Haven't said anything different. All I've said is that I meant what I said.
I'm using you as an example.
Which is a bad example considering you can't be sure on wether or not I actually meant it.
That doesn't mean it's false either
Thank you!
my point is your word alone doesn't cut it as proof.
Yeah, I know. I got it the first time. But what really cut it as proof, huh? The context. And you can clearly see that my comparison indeed was symbolic. You're welcome to disagree(as if you'd do anything else), but I'm well aware of how symbolic I intended to be. By the way, can you see what you're arguing about? You're arguing that a Word isn't automatically true if I use it, on an IMDb message board, with a stranger you're never going to meet, in a thread that's propably never going to be read by anyone else. My question is: why? Why is it that important to Point out? Why do you make countless of posts where you state the same obvious thing over and over? I got your Point the first time, you could stop now please.
Since you claimed my point is wrong, your logic states
It's not that your Point is wrong, it's just the general opinion on...well, Everything you say.
The best part of this rambling is you completely missed my point.
No I got it. I just don't give a damn about it.
It doesn't matter if your comparison isn't literally, it doesn't matter if you're being "symbolic," it doesn't matter if you don't believe One Direction is as horrible as WWII. Comparing someone to a member of the Third Reich is incredibly negative and gives the implication (keyword: implication) that said individual is a horrible person. For example:
If a person on the internet is comparing, well, anything, to WWII, you do realize he aren't too serious, right? Fine, let me ask you a question. Do you see me as a horrible person? Do you Believe that I'm free from morals and have no sympathy for the people who suffered and died in WWII? Do you get the implication that I'm a horrible person because I symbolically compared two things that you find incomparable? Because if you do, I can't see why you'd continue talk to me. If I got that implication from someone, I'd be too disgusted to talk to him again.
Protip: When you respond to a truthful statement with a lie, you should probably stop talking.
Then why are you still talking?
So if a WWII vet or Holocaust survivor is offended by your comparisons, is it also not your problem?
Well, that's why no one ever compared 1D to WWII in front of any of these people. If someone made a joke about something else, e.g an idiot, they wouldn't be offended. But if someone made fun of idiots in front of you, you'd get offended. It's rather simple.
The lady doth protest too much.
Fascinating statement. Just brilliant. Heh...meh.
What I like about this quote is you claim you don't have a neurological disorder right after you fail to understand what your statement means and only talk about what it says.
As if you'd have any better understanding for my own statement means then I myself, the original writer of it.
Which was a response to what I quoted in my previous post. So thanks for proving me right
I'm afraid you're only half right. It was a response to both the sentence you brought up and the quote I brought up. Note that my quote was preceded by two simultaneous quotes from you.
But you did. You were in agreement with me that it was "almost as bad." And with that, you effectively contradicted yourself because you also wrote "I've never stated that I Believe these bands are doing things that are worse or even near as bad as what NSDAP did."
Sigh...should I try? Should I even try explain again, despite how many times I've made myself clear, to the level of that you're now sounding that you're joking when you keep talking? I Think I'll give it one last shot. Here goes nothing: When I wrote this sentence: "Almost. Almost. Not the same, but almost." It wasn't my actual opinion. I was quoting your use of the Word in the earlier post, for the sake of mocking you. But since you clearly have no sense for sarcasm, mocking, insulting etc. you immediately believed this quote to be my actual thoughts. This sentence: "or even near as bad as what NSDAP did.",
that's my actual thoughts, that's what I Believe. These two quotes doesn't contradict each other at all since one is an imitation on someone else's Words, while the other is an actual opinion. Am I clear enough this time?
Yes, because that term was "World War", and said term is used in reference to high levels of destruction.
Oh,
really? You don't say?? Obvious sarcasm aside, that's a pretty terrible logic. And WWII isn't a term, it's a historical event. Since both Words are substantives, I can use them in the same sentence without saying that they've caused the same amount of anything. Or else, if I used the Word "pinapples" in the same sentence as the Word "gsbr", I'd be stating that pineapples are retarded.
Odds are he did because people who watch movies for a living thought this was watchable.
They're not the only ones with actual knowledge and taste in Movies, they just happen to have their opinions published on a website. Besides, the 49 on Metacritic shows that less than half liked it. Atleast there.
No it doesn't because A.) a 49 on Metacritic indicates "Mixed or average" reviews, not negative reviews and B.) Rotten Tomatoes has more reviews than Metacritic.
Yes it does because: A.) A 49 on Metacritic means less than half liked it and B.) The amount of Reviews doesn't matter, if more people on MT gave Reviews, the score could aswell go down.
You going to prove that statement? Doubt it.
Since when is it neccessary to prove the obvious?
Also, it's not a good for you to use Metacritic as a citation because One Direction's albums have mostly positive reviews on that site.
"It's not a good for you"? It's not "a good" for me? Huh?
Anyway, how the hell is their albums relevant? I'm talking about the Reviews on their film, I don't give a damn about their Music.
A comparison is never small when you include big issues like World Wars and Nazis.
When the comparison is
symbolic it is. You can compare Everything to anything symbolically, that's the Point.
No you don't. You only assume the movie is terrible because you don't like the music. That's a subjective issue. The horribleness of WWII is objective due the massive loss of life.
Let's see: An incredibly low IMDb rating(perhaps the lowest of this year), a less than half approval on Metacritic, and every single newspaper I've read have given this Movie either one or two stars, all with the same Reviews: "Just a long Commercial", "Completely plot-and-pointless", "Serves no other purpose than to bring in Money" etc. There are many musicians whose Music I dislike, and whose Movies I don't give a damn about. But this...it just...it've crossed the line.
Putting aside how you completely ignored WWII being on a different level of bad than this movie
No, as you may have noticed, I brought that up in the last sentence of the message: "Not at all the same degree of bad, but bad." See? You're really good at making accusations. But you suck on making credible ones.
the critical consensus destroys your analogy. According to Rotten Tomatoes, the majority of people who saw this movie liked it. According to Metacritic, the opinion is split.
So that's the only two things you care about on a Movie? What RT score and what MT score it got? Alright then.
You didn't even provide a good example of someone who considers WWII good, I don't think Neo-Nazis are happy about their side losing.
But without it, nazism would propably never be as famous, and they wouldn't have discovered their ideology from the beginning. My Point is, regardless of the extremeness of a subject, nothing terrible will ever be considered bad by everyone. The majority, yes, but there will still be some morons against. Which means, both that war and this Movie can be considered bad in general. Despite the extreme differences of badness.
Which makes this quote completely pointless and it's only part your efforts to get the last word on everything.
I had to say something, or else you'd be whining about me not responding to Everything you say. Anyway...
I have to get the last Word on Everything? And that's comming from
you? X stated that Y has to get the last Word on Everything, and you're
X? I'm sorry, I can't handle that much hypocrisy at the same time.
The context doesn't matter. You think it's alright to push the literal meanings of the things you write while complaining about me apparently taking things literally. That's the irony
Because what you take literally is freaking comebacks. It's impossible to argue with someone whose basing their arguments on insults and sarcasm.
Not to mention you can't even prove I'm taking you literally.
Prove?? You know, you use that card all the time. If I don't put 63 different examples behind a statement to back it up, I'm automatically wrong. But fine, you want proof? How about the time I joked about WWII vets Crying by listening to 1D:s Music, and you accused me of believing in that? How about the time I joked about them being a danger to the human intelligence, and you accused me of believing in that? Oh, how about that time I joked about them causing devastation and used your intelligence as an example, for the sake of being able to mock you, and you accused me of actually admitting that? I know, how about every freaking time you've responded to my comebacks?
Yeah, because you said the point of a comeback was to be offensive. By that logic, you're attempting to be offensive when you write a comeback. Otherwise, you haven't accomplished your main goal in your comeback.
Yes I'm attempting to be offensive when I write a comeback,
everyone is!!
What do you Think the Point is, to be complimenting? That still doesn't show that I find offensivities acceptable, it just shows I'm aware of the intentions of a comeback.
Ironically, you follow up on your accusations of me taking you literally by taking me literally. You try justifying what you said as a joke, I say it doesn't really work as joke
You said it was a bad joke, that's it. You didn't say anything further to show what you "really" meant.
You respond by taking a dump in your diaper and screaming that I changed the subject
And we're on to "poopy jokes" now, are we? Swell.
hoping to finally get leverage over me.
Twice in this post have you made a comment on you "having the leverage over me", and me "trying to get it". Those who see the need to openly brag about having the leverage in an argument are usually the ones losing.
Try again
The evidence is piling up.
If what you said isn't a good joke, then what is it? The literalist in you would say "A bad joke." But it's really what I've been saying it is; you admitting you believe One Direction is as bad as World War II. I'm eliminating your justifications of the quote. If One Direction's music is capable of making a WWII vet cry, then it has to be as bad as the war.
I couldn't help but chuckle at the "I'm eliminating your justifications of the quote" part. Why don't you just say what you really mean: "I'm going to ignore all you say because I can't come up with a good argument against it". Go ahead, say it. I won't judge you. Why is it that hard for you to face the fact that you can't Always be right? Just admit you said something stupid and move on.
Doesn't matter, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Imitation for the sake of mocking isn't.
I asked you if that's what you believe. Determined to find something that'll make you look better, you try turning my question into an accusation. Chalk this up as another desperate measure on your part.
The question wasn't a real question, it was a rhetorical form of mockery. See now who's pulling the literal card.
I don't care, the proper spelling of "quote" is right above you. When you use the quotation brackets, you can clearly see how to spell the word
Are you fluent in Swedish? If not, then you wouldn't understand. I'm well aware of how to spell the Word, but I mixed two letters up unknowingly because the letters are pronounced different here, the Word would be pronounced different, and the translate of the Word is completely different. I still mess the two letters up unintentionally, but now I go back and check twice. So thank you for Calling me out on it.
It's pretty ironic you would simultaneously misspell the word and misquote me.
I didn't misquote you, and I'll soon prove it. Stick around!
You don't see me calling you out on the majority of your spelling and grammatical mistakes.
Then we're even.
Also, if you were more interested in giving your statements a dosage of logic, you would know attacking someone's sexuality is the lowest form of mockery.
Maybe in your opinion it is. Besides, I don't even know your sexuality. Perhaps your species, but I have nothing against dogs.
The great part about this quote is you immediately begin with a condescending remark while simultaneously denying you present yourself as intelligent.
-is a perfect example of what you just said.
Whereas you can't provide one example of me using "fancy" and "advanced" words
"Whereas", "condescending", "simultaneously" etc. That's Three Words in one paragraph. If I was to name even half of all the times, I'd still be Writing in the next week.
(while you continue to harp on the word "symbolic"),
Yes, incredibly fancy. More than 5 letters!
here's a list of all the condescending things you've said in this post alone.
Half of these aren't even condescending. Besides, it's hard
not to sound codescending while talking to an A-list moron like you.
You just insulted yourself by the way you worded my quote and you don't even realize it.
I insulted myself, huh? Yet you included the phrase as one of the examples of me being condescending to you.
It doesn't surprise me in the slightest you believe misquoting someone will successfully turn the tables on him, making desperate attacks is your forte. Not to mention you ignored what I said about you misquoting me. Here's a review of the quotes that you can't squirm out of.
You (posted on Fri Aug 30 2013 06:52:31): I was never alive to experience World war II, yet I know it was something horrible. Same goes for this Movie.
This was your comparison between World War II and One Direction's movie. My response was this.
Me (posted Fri Aug 30 2013 09:26:58): There's a pretty big difference between a war that ended over a billion lives and a movie about a band you don't like.
This was what you've responded to since the beginning. After all, it was my first response to you. You tried claiming you were replying to "And you didn't think there was a difference between the human population and human intelligence until now" from the start, despite that quote being made two days after our initial conversation and you writing quite a few responses to me before I wrote that.
Oh, so that's why you Think I misquoted you? I'm afriad you've gotten the entire thing wrong. Let me explain: when I said that the quote from you about the human population was what I'd been responding to from the beginning, I didn't meant the beginning of our entire history of arguing, I meant the beginning of one particular argument, i.e. the one about the differences between human intelligence and human population. I propably should've made myself clearer, but I actually thought you'd be smart enough to figure out what I meant. Now I've learned a lesson: never overestimate your intelligence.
To top it off, you throw in a pointless line about how it's alright for you to misquote me because I apparently misquoted you more than once, all while failing to back up your statement.
But you didn't really back your statement up until just now either...
And yet you still compared this movie to World War II. You didn't have to experience World War II to know it was terrible, "just like" this movie. Isn't the point of a comparison to show the similarities between two things?
Compared, yes. But not their level of destruction, their amount of human Lives taken, their amount of buildings blown up etc. Just their symbolical badness.
Way to miss the part where I said "same level of devastation."
What about that part? It's a lie, that's what it is.
Even if two things are deemed "bad," you can't compare them if they're not on the same level of badness.
If I compare 'em
symbolically I can.
I can't compare crashing my car to the sinking of the Titanic, even though neither event was "good."
If you compare 'em
symbolically you can.
You went ahead and compared One Direction and World War II, showing that you think they're on the same level.
I compared 'em
symbolically, showing that I Think they share one aspect, i.e. they're both considered bad in general.
Irony goes over your head again. Bonus points for reposting your assumption, which revealed a little bit about yourself.
Congratulations, you possess the ability to steal corny lines from the internet.
IMDb wouldn't let me make the post any longer.
