dearest whip:
when you write, 'we are the scum of the earth' you most certainly ARE attempting to speak for all you make an assessment, you state it as though it were fact, you show offense when refutation is offered again: if you wish to self-assess as 'scum', feel free i have no reason at this point to disagree with that self-assessment my only complaint is the certainty with which you generalize that self-assessment to everyone else in my experience: there are many who are most surely not 'scum'...so: your universal assessment is in error, is refuted, and you, sir/madam, stand corrected now: go to your room... --henry |
He wasn't speaking for all; he was speaking of all. When he says 'we' that is because he is making his personal assessment of 'us' (mankind).
|
*shrug*
to each his (or her) own... |
I have to agree with Dana. I thought at first it was as you believed, but since we all recognize that he can only speak for himself, then there is no other reasonable determination. It is simply his opinion.
|
*sigh*
'since we all recognize that he can only speak for himself'
*shrug* again: to each his own ultimately: does it really matter that we disagree on whip's intent? seems to me -- outside of whip and me -- no one else should give a damn as always: there's the tedious 'taking of sides'...you know, folks: sometimes it's okay to be a witness, and not a participant...and sometimes it's fine to participate and NOT take any sides other than your own... --henry |
well I think it fair to address the fact since you took umbrage with it in post #140 and then contradicted yourself in 144. What exactly was the point you were making again? I'll play devils advocate with you. :devil:
|
there was no contradiction
in 140 i took my compliant to whip...not to you in 144 i expressed the opinion that -- really -- the issue is between whip and me you, of course, may express an opinion in this thread, on this topic...i just don't quite understand why you'd want to *shrug* but, again: no contradiction on my part when i say, 'to each his own', i mean you and dana or anyone may side with whip or with me or with neither i don't care much how it plays out with you all my issue is with whip why? because he parades simplicities as profundities, as fact, and dumbs down an already retarded discourse if he's too delicate, in your estimation, to stand for himself, then -- please -- present a note from his doctor describing the nature of his fragility, and i'll leave the boy alone otherwise: when the emperor wears nothing, someone ought to say so...and when the village idiot vomits on the dining room table, he ought to chastised… |

Therefore a great example of why you might want to try using the tools on the board so others know who you are quoting instead of (((((())))))).
