I’m not “intent on finding a point of disagreement”, I simply don’t agree with your analysis. I’m allowed to disagree without there being some deep psychological reason for that. I even tried to give you an out on the last post (to which you responded with hundreds of words restating your point, which I already said I…

Disingenous sincerity (n) - The state of wanting to use the word “insincerity”, but also wanting to appear much smarter than you actually are.

Americans didn’t vote majority red in the presidential election that resulted in this mess. And yet, here we are. And since literally nothing has been done about the systemic issues that caused that to happen, I think we can all plan on a GOP sweep in 2018, too. Likely in every additional election cycle, as well. …

Yeah, and if you were, say, a project manager or sales person your presos would need to be at a 5th grade level. What I’m saying here is that quite a few people, maybe even a majority of people, really really suck at comprehension.

I hear that with AV Platinum, all posts automatically come with complaints about Kinja already embedded!

He’d probably pronounce it “Shaniqua”.

I take your point, but we’re probably going to have to agree to disagree because I still think you (and UP, if that was indeed his point) are seeing much more than is really there in his choice of epithets.

I think we’re changing the point here, but I suspect you’re giving Trump much more credit than he deserves. I don’t think that Pocahontas was a carefully chosen word that Trump decided on because it carries just the right amount and type of racism. I think Trump calls Warren Pocahontas because it’s the only female…

If that’s the point Uncertainty Principal was making, then I don’t understand the response to Norm!Chomsky at all - Amos N Andy, Sambo, Shaniqua - all of these things seem similarly offensive...

I really don’t understand how you’re not familiar with concern trolling, given how prolific you say you are online. It’s not a new term, it wasn’t invented so that people can be indecent to others, and it’s absolutely what you’re doing here.

Do you seriously not understand how calling a fake-black woman “Shaniqua” would be offensive as well?

That you missed all of those other words to focus on this is telling. That you are now proceeding to attempt to strawman me with this nonsense about “can’t great leaders have flaws too” is even more telling. You’re concern trolling. Now that I understand that, I also understand that every person that is calling you…

So, here’s where your whole disingenuous argument falls apart, for me. Who, exactly, do you think is getting “bogged down on nonsense like Christmas decorations”? I see 150ish comments on this article; each of which probably took less than a minute to craft. Hell, I’m certain my office spent more time and effort…

My guess is that they avoid eating anything that would require any sort of utensil. Even babies can use their hands to feed themselves...

You have a really weak grasp on language and rhetoric, don’t you?

Ah, I see what’s happening here. This is still about winning to you. You were never anywhere close to winning this argument...hate to break it to ya, lil buddy. And now you think you’ve found a beachhead on this “uncommon to tip less than 20%” thing...you haven’t:

Projection really is the idiot’s folly.

I’m insulting you because you deserve it and it’s fun for me. I don’t really care if I hurt your feelings, and I don’t really care if I *win* this argument with you. That you’re a server and believe this bullshit ties up how much of a fucking idiot you are with a nice bow. I hope that as you move into other…

Jesus Fucking Christ you’re thick:

Yeah, the fun goes all around because I wasn’t misreading anything that you wrote and I could care less about your semantic argument with the other poster. OP is right and you’re wrong, and that’s what I’m telling you in my prior comment and this one. Arbitrarily deciding that you will tip a server less than 20%…
