The one thing I have to say about this series of debates is it's nice to see such short posts from ProtoplasmicTraveler,

I don't think I can recall such succinct statements made by him on this board ever.

Four score and seven years ago, our forefathers fought basically to fight, because well they liked to fight.

So I think when we step back to examine this for the illuminating revelations contained within we can clearly see...

That 2 plus 2 equals 4!

Yes, but that's not all, act now and you can recieve a free gia pet!

So in conclusions ladies and gentlemen of the jury...

ask not what you can do for your country...

ask what you can do for proto!!!

Some green eggs and ham please!

Thanks.

By the way, I am not sure if you have heard this or not, but there seems to be some doubt regarding whether Obama's birth certificate is legitimate!

By the way, I sure hope that doesn't come up as a debate topic ... that would be terrible!

"Reverse Psychology Never Works" equally so.

I think this would make an outstanding debate topic!

With my luck I would get stuck having to argue for it's legitimacy.





I read some of the other debates last night (well I scanned them) and you know it doesn't appear that everyone uses their 10,000 charachter post limit!

I propose we develop a system that allows those debaters who don't use all 10,000 charachters to sell their excess charachters to charachters who clearly are challenged by such limitations!

So I would like to see a debate on that too!

Oh and the virtues of Butter versus Margerine!

Well, if you do, all you would have to do is copy and paste what I have submitted in the hundreds of threads on the subject and you would win hands down.

Actually if I were stuck in that topic for the side of illegitimacy I think that would be the first debate that I would intentionally throw.

I would never throw a debate, and would always give my side the most passionate and compelling presentation I could, which is why I regret to inform you that no, I wouldn't copy and paste your posts on the subject!

You practically admitted in all of them that Obama is from Centari Prime and ran the Babylon 5 Space Station for years for the Mumbari before coming to Earth Central, if I recall correctly!

Rest assured I would gloss over these details in such a skillful way the happless soul who brought them up would seem dellusional!

What you're doing, I see it.

Stop biting so easily!

reply to post by schrodingers dog


I protest my innocence most strenuously against these slanderous accusations of baiting and drawing in a fellow member just to twist their words for attention!

I can’t believe that you would even suggest that I would do such a thing!

It is as a barbed dagger has been thrust into my very bosom and then twisted and jerked until my last ounce of fidelity with and faith in my fellow human has been cleaved from very soul, leaving me wasted and forlorn, questioning the very cruelty of the gods who would take such delight in these wantonly sadistic onslaughts.

Yet indomitable in my resilient spirit, I shall endeavor to persevere anyway, knowing if not me then who, if not now then when, if I can not withstand this spurious scourge of man’s inhumanity to man, then who amongst us can?

So I laugh at thee, and say nay, it was not I, I would sooner die!

This is what I have to say about the choice of using the full character limit...

www.xkcd.com...

character trade business

i don.t have to sell right?
can i spare my not used characters for a later debate?
to use more
just like a chracter savings bank?

just ideas how to deal with unused characters
maybe we can have a big party and eat character soup?
or we trick and treat on halloween in the forum
call it character and treat

"give one for the halloween party"

maybe we can seed them and get little characters?

just some ideas

On second thought...there should be no such thing as a caricature limit!

Only ten words in one post?

I feel this may be appropriate as a response then...

This from a self proclaimed 'Free Man'...very interesting...

I was trying to go easy...and I really have nothing but 'pfft' to say to Judas Priest...



And these guys refused the Uber Hot Wings in favour of the generic and over processed caviar with the nice labeling...

Check the Avatar that's the self proclaimed first citizen of Rome and highest moral authority!

You know having a working knowledge of Latin is essential in this world!

Of course you were! I imagine the prospect of having to face me in the debate arena is truly unsettling.

Of course a true Master would simply describe this bit of fantasy on your part as...



Alas how many times must we tell the tale?

I have an etymological dictionary on my headboard...for light reading...

Master of one...and of none.

Fantasy precludes reality...though you may have a point. The pressure is overwhelming...

Grimms could answer that better than I could...

reply to post by MemoryShock


Sure make fun of Eric Clapton, but I think Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page would disagree with you on this!

The pressure is overwhelming...

It will be alright, S Dog always reminds me to take it easy on people, while reminding me I am mortal!

Grimms could answer that better than I could...

Will they be standing in for you during the debate?

Or is just this your way of saying that you like to....
