If it was a good enough argument,my stubborness would be pretty irrelevent. Stubborness only goes so far Oh I know that, just glad to hear that you do to..

I'm in a venting mood today and I just noticed a phrase that has been driving me up the wall for a long time hasn't even been included yet for some reason,so here goes:
"Its only a messageboard/the internet"
I'm gonna use statements made today that caught my eye that included this type of painfully idiotic statement.
The same reason why we would hate somebody in real life...
What makes a fucking difference? You think you can avoid idiots,assholes,and conflict in "the real world"? Newsflash dipshit...its just as bad,if not WORSE in the real world...in the real world,it could lead to physical altercations...
I've said it before,and I'll say it again...people who hide behind that statement are idiots...if its "just a messageboard",I could just as easily say "its just a bar/club" or "its just a mall" whenever conflict breaks out in any of those places...all of these,messageboard included,are means of MASS social interaction. You're ALWAYS gonna meet or run into people you don't like or don't like you with means of mass social interaction and it will most likely end up in some kind of conflict...
Oh thats right,because the intenet "isn't a real reality" or some ridiculous shit like that,or that you'll never meet these people face to face that somehow makes a difference? If you don't like somebody,you don't like somebody...who gives a flying fuck whether or not you ever meet them face to face? Its still a form of mass social interaction where disagreements,conflicts,and general dislike are unavoidable,just like any in the real world...so your "live in the real world" retort has no validity or basis in the argument.
Hate to break it to ya,but if the website in question has a means of mass social interaction (like a messageboard),it is equal by definition...all the internet is is a way for people to interact with each other much like they would IN THE REAL WORLD without having to leave home,which obviously a lot of people wish not to do.
Interacting with people,in positive OR negative ways,IS entertainment...so your right,it is...so why is the real world so radically different than the internet again? The face to face element? So what? You're interacting with somebody in BOTH cases. If you say I shouldn't take you seriously on the internet,what makes you think I should or will take you seriously face to face which is where you'd WANT for me to take you seriously? It doesn't work like the flip of a switch. If you want to hide behind some utopian internet persona,thats your business (although highly annoying). Me? I'm gonna act like I always act when I'm interatcing with others when conflict involving me arises,no matter what the means of interaction is.
Ahh another retort that gets on my nerves..."Just ignore it/them"
Right...bottle up all that anger and frustration...THATS healthy...And correct me if I'm wrong,but venting that you're pissed off in a stern correct way has a pretty good chance that that something (I believe you meant to say someone) probably won't do what pissed you off again...and if it does,it (they) would deserve every bit of what was comes to it (them).
What makes it even more funny is that these proponets of this fantasy utopian "ignore it" philosophy AREN'T IGNORING ANYTHING. Preaching to people to ignore it isn't ignoring it because you're giving it validation by mere mention. If you were REALLY ignoring it,you wouldn't even mention it in the slightest...stick THAT in your hypocritical tree hugging pipe and smoke it.

Add another one for the fire...
"Calling people stupid/idiots/dipshits/etc. because they don't share the same opinion/taste as you is sad."
Hey numbnuts...did you ever stop to think that maybe I'm calling you all those things NOT because of your opinion/taste,but rather your REASONS FOR FORMING your opinion/taste? I know its hard for you to believe and/or accept,but they are two entirely different concepts. Get it? Got it? Good...STILL don't get it?! Opinions/taste aren't above being formed from stupidity. Its that simple.

"Translation of that:BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH MORE BLAH BLAH BLAH etc."
Translation of THAT:I'm a worthless dumbass whose forceful ignorance is absolutly pathetic. I should never breed (its not like I do anyway) and should probably just hang myself now and allow better people the oxygen I take up.

"How about you two take this ridiculous argument somewhere else so the rest of us can get back on topic?"
I've got a better idea...How bout you give me a hardy mouthfuck blowjob,then clean the sweat off my nutsack with your tongue? Hows that sound? You might as well do that,cause you're sounding like a bitch...
#1:The "ridiculous argument" you speak of probably IS about the topic,or at least thats what starts it. Its stupid to have 1 positive and 1 negative thread about a subject.
#2:How exactly is the argument hindering you from reading and replying to all the other posts on the topic that meet your qualifications (like anyone cares to cater to you),or just posting your own thoughts on the subject? I'll tell you how...it doesn't. Nobody is forcing you to read the argument posts. This is a valid case where you can "ignore it",cause chances are it has nothing to do with you.
#3:The truth is,you get a kick out of the arguments...they're entertaining to you on a level. If they weren't,why would you even acknowledge them by saying how ridiculous it is,thereby doing nothing but throw gas on the fire? Which by the way,is even more ridiculous than the arguments in which you claim are ridiculous...

Any "stop being a nerd" or "its only a message board" or any other retorts involving someone making another thread about a subject that already has a thread
Hows about you not be a lazy sack of shit and do some looking around before you post about something? Its not that hard and doesn't take that long...hell even when the topics were right in front of them,some people STILL made another thread about the topic...can you BE anymore moronic? Seeing multiple threads about the same subject is annoying and needlessly takes up space.

Credit to Kupotek for this next submission:"I find it funny but mostly sad that you will find any reason to continue this special olympics of nonsense."I find it sad that you have to use a nonsense phrase to describe what you think is nonsense...not funny,just very sad and irritating... "Fighting on the internet is like the special olympics. Even if you win,you're still retarded."This retort is so stupid that you could make pasta with my boiling blood. So conflict,or "fighting",in a REAL LIFE situation is also like the special olympics? Yes conflict...you know? That unavoidable part of human nature? Too many dipshits hide behind the fact that "its the internet" like its a false reality or something. I got news for you idiots...the internet is a social form of interaction like talking to somebody face to face is...its VERY real. Not clear enough? Conflict and hatred in "the real world",pretending theres a set definition of this,is a part of human nature that nobody can change...so why should it get any special judgement on the internet? You're still interacting with people correct? Dispite not interacting with them face to face,you're still interacting with them right? Of course you are...and its the interaction,usually involving radically different beliefs,that can lead to conflict and hatred...if you can't get around that in "the real world",what makes you think you can get around it on the internet? I thought you were better and smarter than that,Kupotek... Now to change things up a bit,heres a nice retort that I absolutly applaud: I would have added the "if you don't like it,don't read it" bit in there as well...but other than that,flawless and cudos...

"Wrestling is fake!"
So are TV shows and movies...if you mean the actual wrestling itself,you're dead wrong...Yes its choreographed,but 70% of the impacts,spots,and bumps are quite real and painful.
"Its scripted and the outcome is decided beforehand!"
So are TV shows and movies,and you have no problem accepting them...
"Wrestlers aren't athletes!"
I'd love to see what happens if you actually walk up to a wrestler and say that.
ath·lete n. A person possessing the natural or acquired traits, such as strength, agility, and endurance, that are necessary for physical exercise or sports, especially those performed in competitive contexts.
Now lets put that into perspective:
-Wrestlers HAVE the natural or acquired traits such as strength, agility, and endurance...you can't deny that,so don't even try.
-Wrestling IS a physical exercise...you can't deny that,so don't even try.
-Wrestling IS a competitive context...outcomes of matches are usually decided by performance on the mic or in other matches,what would benifit the storyline,and/or how much stroke one holds backstage.
By the very definition wrestlers ARE IN FACT athletes.
"Wrestling is gay! They wear nothing but underwear to the ring and grab each other!"
#1:Roman Greco Wrestling does the same thing,and thats a legite sport.
#2:ALL sports have homosexual under and overtones if you look deep enough...even Football. Hell just a few months ago,me and a friend had this long running joke about a college football player named Codie Fagg...and in one game,Codie Fagg attempted a "deep play",but got "pounded from the backside" which caused him to "cough it up"
"Only rednecks like wrestling cause they think its real!"
#1:Thats cause the wrestling part is...the only impacts that aren't real in wrestling matches,ironically,are punches and kicks.
#2:90% of wrestling fans KNOW that outcomes are predetermined...in fact,some of us even KNOW the EXACT outcomes before they're televised. Amazing isn't it?
Just admit it...you have no real reasons to hate wrestling other than your ignorant,borderline stupid misnomers about it...feel free to hate it all you like,but you're gonna have to come up with better reasons than the ones I've already covered if you want to convince me that you're not just another dipshit.

"Get out of MY thread with that crap!"
Just cause you created it doesn't make it yours...The only way it does if you own the entire board,and even then its scetchy
"We should be able to kick people out of a thread I create because of people fucking it up"
Hey everybody,its Benito Mussolini and hes found a way to travel to our time. You creating a thread doesn't guanatee you any special rights to the thread. You don't own it and it technically isn't yours...until you get it copyrighted,which would be impossible cause chances are the topic has been started on other boards by other people,shut the fuck up.
"But I never said I owned the thread. All I said is that I created it so it is mine."
Tool Shed handled this perfectly...
"Its like MY girlfriend that I don't own. Can't you see the difference or are you stupid?"
I think YOU'RE the one whose stupid for that lame nowhere near valid comparison...your girlfriend is a living being with her own thoughts and beliefs,so of course you don't own her...Plus you didn't create your girlfriend.

"So go ahead and feel free to respond and quote me some more."
I don't need your permission but thanks anyway.
You have a problem reading through my quoting of you? Well I have a problem reading through your stupidity which inspires my quoting of you,but you don't see me whining like a little bitch about it. You don't want me to quote you then don't say stupid shit that causes me to quote you. Pretty simple huh?

"Get a life! Go do something besides post on a messageboard!"
#1:I don't know if you noticed or not,but theres a large gap of time to whit you usually don't see me make threads or responses...thats me doing things other than posting on a messageboard. Therefore,I have a life.
#2:Even if I somehow didn't have a life,you're in absolutly no position to speak as you probably post just as much if not more than I do.

"You just think you're so much smarter and better than everybody else in film knowledge because you take film classes."
Wouldn't it be safe to assume that I would already have to know a whole lot about film to even qualify to take classes on it? I was already smarter and better than most people reguarding film knowledge before I even signed up for those classes,so taking those classes has nothing at all to do with it.
Its not my fault or the fault of me taking a film class that you're a complete putz when it comes to movie knowledge and how you base your opinions on film...in the words of Red Foreman from That 70s Show..."Thats GOD'S fault"...or better yet,yours...

The following come from BD member visitedbyvoices"Opinions,even those based on ignorance,are still valid."Um...no...they aren't...at all...If you're completely ignorant about something,common sense tells you that you shouldn't have an opinion on it...having an opinion on something you're completely ignorant,or even slightly ignorant on,crosses the line and enters the realm of something completely different and more unforgivable...Stupidity. "Actually, by dictionary definition, no opinion is valid because the definition of valid is anything founded on facts or truth"Are you fucking kidding me?! Please don't tell me you actually believe this shit you're praddling off. Lets try an example shall we: Opinion: I think George Bush is a moron. FACT or TRUTH that SUPPORTS this opinion: The man makes some of the stupidest statements any President has made in years. Don't believe me? Heres proof: politicalhumor.about.com/library/blbushdumbquotes.htmThose are 50...count em,50 of the stupidest things he has ever said...please note the word STUPIDEST,meaning he has probably said other stupid things that were pretty dumb,but just not dumb enough to be put on this list. So my opinion that Bush is an idiot is backed up with actual scientific evidence and data,which are also FACTS and TRUTHS...which makes my opinion,based on the definition you've provided...wait for it... VALID.I declare thee officially owned. Stop praddling off bullshit when you have no earthly clue what you're talking about.

Eventhough I've already covered it,I now feel I have to go back to the overused and utterly moronic "Fighting/arguing on the internet is like the special olympics. Even if you win,you're still retarded." retort.
I just found a great quote from somebody on another site that completely hands the collective asses of those who preach this absolute bullshit on a plate with all the trimmings:
