Not every disagreement has to end in a debate, as much as you want one.
You are literally the only person trying to debate this topic.

Claiming to have "won" an argument when literally my entire post was saying how I am not going to get into such nonsense with you is very, very sad. Insinuating you have more of a life than me was also a nice touch after lamenting how insulting I apparently was. :P Way to take the high road.

You lost, and your clear hostility to me only highlights that you recognize this. :)

Fun fact: the moment you start declaring yourself the winner of an internet debate you lose all credibility and end up looking like a twat. There are no rules for an internet debate, there are no judges, there is no formal scoring system, so on and so forth. All such a declaration does is make people dismiss you as an annoying blowhard who can't stand being seen as wrong, so you have to declare the rightness of your opinions by claiming to have won a debate. Seriously, only negative responses come from saying you won the internet debate. Don't do it.

I love how spam always likes to blame me for these, and never acknowledge the other person who also made arguments who had a role in it.

Okay, so, remember how you've said in other places that almost every time you come into Spam you end up in some kind of argument/debate? Remember how they almost always end up with you being viewed in a negative way? Now, here's a simple thought exercise for you. Remember all those past Spam debates. Think of who was involved. Think of all the various people who were part of these debates. Okay, now, what is the common factor to all those poorly viewed debates? You are. You're a part of all of them. An interesting fact to note is that debates and arguments happen all the time in Spam, yet most of the time they don't end with everyone openly saying "ugh fuck that one guy who was part of it." For some reason they do that with you. Hrm.

Now go take a look at how the argument in this thread started and progressed. Dervish posted his opinion about boredom in the modern age, directed at nobody at all, just an opinion drop. Then you posted with a direct disagreement to his opinion. Regardless of the fact that you did not quote his post to make it a direct response, it clearly was meant as a counterpoint to what he said. You started the disagreement. This is an important point, because when stupid arguments debates happen people tend to look at whoever started them as the one more at fault. Dervish responded directly, which turned it into an internet argument. Want to take a wild guess where it went from run of the mill argument to full on debate? That's right, your very next post, where you tried to go big dick internet debater mode and cited a formal logical fallacy. This is also important: people who bring the whole logical fallacy thing up in normal arguments are viewed negatively, because instead of actually continuing any possible rational dialogue it puts up a big wall of "nope, fuck you, you did this so your entire opinion is wrong" between yourself and the person you're calling logical fallacy on. Notice how that was where rational discourse broke down and you started being dismissed as an e-peen stroking internet derpbater. You only exacerbated this by citing further fallacies and claiming to have won the debate.

This is how it usually goes down with you in Spam, from what I've seen. You go start some argument, try to wheel out the internet debate podiums, and then people shit all over you for it. The majority of people who frequent Spam are not into the whole internet debate thing (they like to keep it to informal arguments), which is why they avoid Off-Topic, so you bringing it here causes negative backlash from both the people you're arguing with and from third parties. Are the other people involved also at fault? Sure, but you're the one who does the internet debate things that people in Spam view negatively, so you get the worst of it. This is of course inflated by you being an outsider going up against a Spam regular, but the core if it is the internet debate thing. That's why people in Spam have a generally negative opinion of you.

I'll end it on some friendly advice. If you want to try to jump into Spam and have fun, then try to avoid getting into arguments. If you must get into an argument, try to keep it in the informal realm instead of going OT debate mode on it. If you cannot avoid arguments and you cannot help going full on internet debate mode, you might want to just call it quits on Spam since you'll just repeat the same cycle of negativity directed at you over and over again, and that's not very conducive to having a good time.

why did we need 5 paragraphs to explain such a simple concept

Is this the line to sign up for the internet dick measuring olympics

I'm here to represent my glorious country in all things phallic

So I just ate a PB&J
It's not as good as other sandwhichs I've made in the past but it was good enough to not want to give to a starving kid.

I think PB&J's always need to be on toasted bread before they are made or it ruins the structure of the sandwhich because the bread is too.... flimsy?
Yeah whatever

So all in all I'll give it a 7/10

I don't know, I've been told that food journalism is really corrupt lately, can you prove that you're not sleeping with whoever made that sandwich?

Did you put peanut butter on both pieces of bread, Aza? Because if you didn't you're wrong and you should feel bad.

i kinda like it when it's soft and flimsy and mushy. It makes me feel like a big strong man who has to be gentle with the tender sandwich lest I were to inadvertently sunder it and create quite the mess for myself.

soft, gentle things are so temptingly easy to break. :)

Because just simply outlining the concept would be met with denials, whereas going in detail with it might be enough to show him the truth of the matter.

I'm imagining Gwazi furiously typing up a huge response full of direct quotes from yours and Dervish's replies. Despite the fact you're pretty much spot on why we don't like him playing in our sandbox.

I did actually PB up both slices of bread.

Now, for those not in the know about peanut butter and warmed bread here's the thing.

Typically peanut butter is a mild temperature creamy thingy which is pretty dope on some cold things like celery. But, one of the cool qualities of creamy thingys is that they have the ability to get all melty which usually results in them being fuckin' delish yo
So when we heat up our toast (a light toasting in this case, the degree of which you toast is personal preference, as long as it is warm enough to provide heat to the thing on it and provides a crunch) we get to utilize the ability to melt shit. We put the peanut butter on both sides, the toast will melt it and seal the sandwhich together.

You should also be aware that melty peanut butter can easily be mixed around, which makes for a very nice peanut butter jelly swirl. (Kinda like good choconilla)

Thanks for bringing that point up, Idle

I think his only problem is trying to engage spam on his own terms, which follow the terrible 'standards' for debate that OT has.

I know, I know:
>OT
>debate
>implying

Damn that sounds good, Aza. I used to make peanut butter toast like that for breakfast when I was a kid. Without the jelly, sometimes with butter and peanut butter for the ultimate sin. So good on some lightly toasted honey wheat bread or good quality white.

You saying theres something wrong with five guys making sandwhichs together?
The Five Guys "incident" is nothing more then homophobes attacking kind hearted people that just want to give you burgers.

Hey man, you tell me where in the 10 Condiments it says that a man can lay down loafs of bread with another man

Fucking nowhere

That's where

I want a PB sandwich.

Someone send aid to the ailing Dominion of Dervish where illness and famile have taken their toll.
