I propose merging this thread with the "Meat...I need it" thread in Discuss Detroit.
I propose merging this thread with the "Meat...I need it" thread in Discuss Detroit.
Where are all of these conservatives coming from on this thread? No matter, welcome, we need the infusion of more rational thought.
"Let me know if you need an explanation as to why."
Speculation? Current trendy investment? It doesn't have much to do with the current or future economic conditions.
Pot, meet Kettle.Now you have made quite obvious you don't have anything to contribute to the conversation other than stupid or snotty questions or remarks.
That's what happens when you follow a failed ideology. You can't bring an intelligent argument to the table so you rely on name calling or responding to a question with another question over and over.
Weak man, weak. It was expected though.
A question was asked, an answer was given. Deal.
The only one being snide or snotty here is yourself. So far you're living down to my expectations.
I'm fully aware of the conversation, thank you. I can even recap it for you, if your memory isn't up to the task.
You stated that gold was $1,000+ an ounce, and [[rhetorically, I presume) solicited a reason why that should be so. The implication was that it was tied somehow to whatever dire economic foolishness you allege to be the fault of the current administration in particular and Democrats in general.
Novine offered two perfectly reasonable explanations which didn't fit your predetermined economic construction, so instead of countering with a [[to you) more rational explanation you simply attacked him/her as "stupid, snotty," etc., etc.
Just what oh, so subtle underlying nuance of this exchange did you think I'd missed?
For your edification, ad homimem attacks are not argument. Offer something substantive in rebuttal or shut your pie hole.
You need some anger management counseling. You have issues.
Since all you can do is spout vitriol and insults without addressing the question, I'm finished here.
Spew on, brother...spew on.
Against my better judgement, I'll post one last time. [[Old Russian proverb: Never try to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time, and annoys the pig.)Um, whatever it was you think I missed with your statement "Make your snide remarks after you get up to speed."? Or is that too much for you to answer?Unsubstantiated assumption. Implication that I was somehow "lazy" before, which you have not established.You're getting lazy again.Unsubstantiated assumption no. 2. You assume I have a liberal "bias", which you have not established.Was it too complex for your liberal bias to follow? Speak up.On the contrary, I knew and know exactly what I was talking about, namely your egregious ad hominems. You seem to be the only one confused here.
Remember, you're the one that came on like the tough guy, handing out advice without having a clue as to what you were talking about.No, I'm not. [[See: Russian proverb, above)
Anger? Sheeeit man, I am having fun and gauging from your response or lack of one, you aren't.No shit was thrown, unless you threw it.
Next time you try to throw a plate full of shit at someone, make sure you don't get it all over yourself.Unsubstantiated assumption no. 3. Nowhere did I imply that I thought I was smart.You and novine aren't even half as smart as you think you are.And here we get to the nub of the question: Just exactly what did you think was "dishonest" about my post? And be specific, please. [[Oh, and if you can manage it, try not to show yourself to be an insulting ass about it.)
Honesty. Look it up, understand it and live by it. You will be a better person for it.

You impress easily, it seems. For someone who takes pains to point out that you only address the issues with "reason" and "logic", this guy's lack of demonstration of either seems to delight you too much. Expect him to do all your heavy lifting for you?
Notimpressed: I was just wondering whether you had a point to make, or whether you were just another small person who substitutes condescention and bile for reasoned argument. Sadly, you have proven yourself the latter. Cc, he's all yours.
NOW I'm finished.
