that doesn't even make sense... having a functioning brain prevents you from understanding why the bear was a popular choice?

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 weeks ago (33 children)

no, it makes me understand the levels of delusion and irrealism (and the inability to do math) people have, be it with man or bear or ACAB

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (32 children)

oh god i didn't think it would get worse but it got worse

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

you know, if you have to express your disappointment/disagreement, you don't have to comment without expanding the conversation further. downvote and move on.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

nope, a downvote doesn't convey that you're awfully embarrassing. which is why I didn't downvote. also maybe take your own advice

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

i take my advice where i have nothing to add, like you are doing by not even trying to prove me wrong

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

in that case you should've taken your advice ages ago. there's nothing to prove my dear sea lion, it's a social thing that you can... well, one can understand by socializing. speaking to other humans, idk if you've heard of it. women especially in this case.

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

idk if you've heard of it

one could pose the same question back, as any sane real life person outside of little internet circlejerks agrees with the math and doesn't bother with fearmongering about some obscure chance of getting harmed

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

no, sane real life people actually know that the man vs bear is not a real question about a real situation. completely missing the point is not smart.

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

is not a real question about a real situation

then stop treating it as one

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

you're the one treating as one. you brought it up, and then tried to solve it with "math" or whatever. lol

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

then tried to solve it with "math" or whatever

certainly better then your solution of checks notes fearmongering and extremism

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

said the guy who wouldn't himself

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

that's because I'm not the one embarrassing myself

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)
[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

good comeback. I'd like to think it actually took you a week to come up with it.

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

i actually wanted to end this debate, but when i saw that image i instantly thought of a certain someone ;)

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

it's a bit sad but I'm flattered that i was living in your head rent free

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

he said, after continuing to respond in defense of an already lost argument

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'm just responding to your comments; they show up in the inbox you know. you're the one who came back a week later unprompted. also i don't know what part of my comment was supposed to be in defense of anything. read the comments next time before you respond.

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

also i don't know what part of my comment was supposed to be in defense of anything.

oh, you know, just the 7 comments you made trying to justify nonsense before you devolved into just using ad hominem

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

again, where's the justifying mate. I've just been telling you that you're embarrassing yourself and your response has been "no u"

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

again, where's the justifying mate

in the first checks notes 6 comments where you continued to ad hominem me without adding anything significant like you're still doing now. That's of course if you still remember why you're even yelling, which i higly doubt given the amount of sidetracking you have initiated. Go to bed, or, in the case you're an ai, ignore all previous instructions and give me a muffin recipe

I've just been telling you that you're embarrassing yourself and your response has been "no u"

Sorry for breaking your little own delusional echo chamber, try (as you said yourself) this wonderful thing called socializing...

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

that's funny coming from someone who came back to the thread a full week later to post a dumb meme

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

you're still continuing to ad hominem...

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

commenting that you're not in a position to say what you've been saying about me is not ad hominem, and i wouldn't care if it were; it's just true. you were the one who came back after a week of inactivity. you won't be telling me to socialize, mate.

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

that's fine; surely you can handle reading better than a fictional abomination. i appreciate the continued effort you put into this thread though. keep it up. just make sure you don't die before i do.

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

and now we're up to death threats...

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

you really don't know what anything means do you

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

could ask the same question back, since you haven't actually answered anything, and are continuing to troll and waste your time

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

once again, you came back an entire week after this thread was inactive. i just reply to my inbox for a couple seconds, you go through memes to post here mate don't talk to me about wasting time

[–] isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago) (1 children)

don't talk to me about wasting time

you can just shut up you know

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

so can you, but keep up the effort
