You took a good teaching opportunity and made yourself look 1,000 times dumber.

How about getting off your high horse and try helping people learn instead of insulting people to sooth your superiority complex.

I am helping people learn. Using the term Lemmings makes you look stupid. Using the term Lemming incorrectly makes you look REALLY fucking stupid.

Then explain what OP did wrong, in a non-derogatory way, give them alternatives to what they could say instead of just demeaning them.

Know what makes people look REALLY REALLY dumb? Talking down to people that don't know better. Besides if you're so smart, why don't you educate the ignorant without insulting them?

It’s more fun this way. Plus it looks like it pisses dweebs like you off, so win/win.

Lol @ using that mental gymnastic to pretend you won an argument. People say don't feed the trolls but if nobody gave the monkeys peanuts they wouldn't dance like fools for our amusement.

You're welcome, monkey.

Mental gymnastics? What are you even talking about? I got to call a stupid thing stupid and pissed an asshole idiot like you off which makes me happy. And now you’re pretending like there’s some sort of win on your end because you allowed me to rile you up? There’s definitely some sort of attempt at mental gymnastics going on here, but it’s from your end and it’s a massive failure.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I dunno, you seem petty riled up to me, plus you already showed your lack of understanding repeatedly, so yeah certainly a win for me.

Enjoy another round of peanuts on me, monkey.

Oh I’m definitely enjoying it. You’re even acknowledging that fact. You’re so close to figuring out what’s going on here, you just have all the roles switched up.

Also, for someone who was whining about me being mean, you sure are (trying to) come in hard with the personal attacks.

But I’m definitely the angry one here. ;)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Lol what personal attacks? I don't know anything about you except that you clap your cymbals and dance to a guy playing a music box, like any well trained monkey on the street does. 🙉🎶🙊🎶🙈

And yet I'm the one getting things backwards? 👀🤔

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I like how you asked “what personal attacks?” and then proceeded to repeat said personal attacks. Just because they’re not remotely clever or true doesn’t mean you’re not trying your hardest to make things personal. I’m dealing with an absolute genius here.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Literally nothing about what I just said was in any way a personal attack, unless you really are just a monkey dancing for peanuts.

I like how you're trying to pull excuses from your ass more than anything.

Great dance monkey, here's another peanut.
