| Topic | What is the name of this fallacy |
| pinky0926 12/16/18 1:25:42 PM #1 | When someone dismisses an entire argument because of one error made by the person making the argument, of which the argument doesn't fundamentally depend on. Often used as a rhetorical trick to distract and change the subject. E.g. Person A: "I saw John leaving the building last night wearing some blue jeans" Person B: "Actually John was wearing blue chinos that day, therefore you didn't see him leave the apartment" You see this a lot with arguing online, e.g. "All 300 scientists agree on this issue so it's reasonable to believe it is true" and the next person says "actually there were only 280 scientists in total so your argument makes no sense" --- CE's Resident Scotsman. https://imgur.com/ILz2ZbV |

| pinky0926 12/16/18 1:03:58 PM #56 | Lost_All_Senses posted... I didn't watch it either and assume the same. This has nothing to do with your first post coming off as elitist talk My basic point is that Joe Rogan is your classic "smokes all the damn time, thinks he's super intellectual and will defend weed to the death at every turn" kinda guy. And it's funny to me because he's always got a joint in his mouth. You can relax, I'm just laughing at an obvious uber stoner being somewhat ironic. Anyway, my two cents Anything can be addictive, especially a something that can be done habitually and that people can use as a crutch or coping mechanism. Whether weed has the chemical properties that make it biologically dependable doesn't even matter. I know plenty of people who say "I wish I smoked less" but keep smoking lots anyway. Hell a good friend of mine told me this yesterday. She wished she didn't smoke so much pot, because she thinks it affects her anxiety and memory in a negative way, it costs too much money and it makes her lazy. But there she is, doing 4 joints a day minimum. Continuing to do something you've already said you don't want to keep doing because you've identified that personally it's not a good habit to maintain = you have an addiction problem. Weird that so many stoners are defensive about this. Maybe because for so long they've had to convince people that pot isn't evil, they've forgotten that that doesn't mean it's entirely harmless either. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. https://imgur.com/ILz2ZbV |

Maybe if you weren't so concerned about consuming weed in large amounts you'd be able to comprehend that post....wait, now I sound like Im against weed. huh? Ok I think I'm missing a trick, probably because I made the mistake of assuming the content of the video without watching it. I assumed Joe Rogan, being the massive stoner pseudo intellectual that he is, would be arguing on the side of "nah man weed isn't addictive it's been proven by science".

His sixth bankruptcy was for just under $1b. US banks won't deal with him, which is why he's took money from Russian oligarchs. For a guy who claims to be as rich as he is, he sure hates proving it with tax returns, hey?

She could be the kind of manager that spreads malicious rumours about you. Mental health rumours, criminal record rumours, really damaging stuff like that. Those managers do exist. It's never harmless. Even pretense at cheekiness has an ulterior motive, e.g. "Haha, Alan is so forgetful".

Custom software solutions = they will build you a web app or automate some stuff The subtext here is not that I can't work that out (if you read post #4 you would have worked that out too), it's that I get annoyed by the vague and unhelpful copy.

Like instead of all that guff if it went: - sometimes people ask us to build stuff using code like databases or websites or apps and stuff. We can do that. We have programmers that can do all kinds of stuff from software to hardware in various languages. - Like if you have one piece of software and another piece of software and you want them to work together, we can probably figure out how to merge those two things so that they talk to each other - This one time a company asked us why they were losing money so we put in this time tracker system that showed exactly how much time they were spending on calls and projects. Pretty cool. - Databases are complicated and we can do databases. We can make them, fix them, merge them, export them. - Basically we'll take any gig if it involves a computer and some nerd shit please employ us --- CE's Resident Scotsman. https://imgur.com/ILz2ZbV |

| Topic | Am I allowed to be proud to be white? |
| pinky0926 12/12/18 9:40:14 AM #10 | People celebrate being black/gay/female/other minority because for long periods of time until recent history simply being one of those things was a crime, societal or otherwise. Being proud to be [marginalised minority] is saying "I am so glad that I can do this now, and will not be oppressed anymore". That doesn't exactly apply to you being white does it? That's never been a problem. It's great to be white, but it's not an achievement, and it's not really something that has ever needed celebrating. You're basically like a guy who's reflex to hearing a friend say "we're finally having a baby after 3 miscarriages!" is "woah there hunny, I've had a kid too so what's your problem?" --- CE's Resident Scotsman. https://imgur.com/ILz2ZbV |
