  • Ironically enough, the excess of concussions nowadays are due to overly protective gear. It gives them a sence of protection that leads to more violent tackles, which then leads to more violent headshakes.

    It’s like when they introduced gloves in boxing. Pre-gloves, it hurt like a motherfucker to hit someone in the face. You’d have just as big of a chance to break your hand as the opponents jaw. So they had to make the gloves ‘hurt’ again by making them thinner.










  • Well, using a word usually mean that you have a cursory knowledge of its meaning. But they didn’t exactly elaborate on what they meant by saying that sex doesn’t implcitly mean consent.

    The only way i could justify that position, is of they meant sex(*noun), and the description of organisms that create gametes of different size and shapes.

    Sexual relations, coitus, boinking or one of the many different versions of describing the various acts of genital relationships between humans, DOES imply consent. Otherwise it is sexual misconduct or rape.

    But i recon both of you already know this.



  • Winter is defined as the cold season, meaning snow, shorter days.

    If you say you like the winter but you dislike the cold and the snow, then what would you call that?

    You keep arguing as if I am the one who defined what winter is. I obviously didn’t. So when you make the claim that “I” somehow define what winter is, I’m frankly at a loss of what to say other than that you don’t understand what words mean.

    But i suppose anything is winter if you do it during the winter.

    Your position would require omnipotence on your part to be valid, yet you claim to be able to determine the presence of hypocrisy based on factors that have no obligation to correlate with the conclusion you are claiming is obvious.

    No, my point explains itself. You on the other hand require whole paragraphs to try to convince yourself that whatever you think is true, is. Do you not understand the word “lie”? Do you not know what the word “hypocrisy” means?

    In that case I can understand how you would need to paraphrase YOURSELF. Even your own argument against me, claiming that I’M claiming to be the omnipotent one falls on the fact that you only care about your own arguments, making you, dare I say, a hypocrite?

    Why does that lead to liking winter?

    I can tell that you lack reading comprehension, go back and read it again.

    Liking a time of year does not require engaging in “exclusive” activities to “prove” it.

    What a pointless argument then. Why do you bother arguing about liking seasons or not, if you don’t care about the characteristics of a season?

    Does that make me a liar if I claim to like summer?

    Well, either you are lying to yourself or to me. But what do I know about you.

    The activity is the only relevant part. If I like to ice fish, I’m only gonna be able to do that during the winter. Therefore I like the winter, because it enables me to do the activity that i like.

    Nothing about the winter enables you in particular to sit with cocoa and a heated blanket. Other than the fact that you like to sit under blankets with cocoa.
