I don't care what you're interested in hearing about, to be perfectly honest.  I'm simply saying that you're a hypocrite who changes your argument and then acts like you didn't.  *burp*  If you're saying now that what you said at first was wrong then I'm fine with that.  Just don't try to act like I was wrong to point it out and don't do all that rationalization over what you said and then try to paint "lol" as some kind of ridiculous exaggeration.  *burp*  Adding "lol" didn't make what you said look ignorant, what you said did that all by itself.  You were wrong.  That argument is over, as far as I'm concerned.  

By the way before you go, do you understand the definition of the word fallacious? I am not doing this to "1up!" you or offend you, I'm genuinely asking. This is something I fuck up a lot of the times myself. People use the word fallacious wrong and as such it can get confusing.

In it's literal definition fallacious means : "based on a mistaken belief" and a fallacious argument means is an argument based on a false notion or interpretation. 

So if you admit that I clarified what I said, doesn't that mean that technically the word choice of fallacious was right all along? You're agreeing that I clarified something I didn't mean for you to interpret. Therefore, your arguments against that interpretation were fallacious. 

I didn't change my argument and I'm not a hypocrite. All of your past few responses have been pretty bad because they call out random things to try and make a connection that isn't there. But sure Pokoko, be passive aggressive. That's very helpful in a discussion. 

 

If you're admitting that what you said wasn't what you meant to say, then that would make what you said fallacious.  My argument was based on what you said, not what you meant to say.  Fallacious is simply the existence of a fault.

That's exactly why I called you that.  You did all of that but you're trying to act like you didn't.  "lol" is bad but *burp* isn't.  "lol" is bad but seemingly mocking someone's spelling isn't--and even if you claim you didn't in the first line, you typing "Anyways being "povocted" is not an excuse" damn sure looks like you are.  You supposedly didn't change your argument but your first response to me wasn't, "hey, I didn't mean it that way," it was, "*burp* Oh did I just sense a fallacious argument in here?".  You just rationalize it after the fact.  The problem seems to be that you just say whatever you want and just assume that everyone will look at it exactly the same way as you even when there is no reason to assume that.
