An attempt at writing a “crazy person” monologue?
Am I having a stroke
yes, it's a collective stroke. and not one of genius
damn he was right. he told me "I'll byte you" and he bit me... eight times !!
Is he a Møøse in disguise?
this is uk news you gentle dunce
"It feels good don't it... that warm embrace"
Yeah he just wanted a snuggle
Man, you just made me feel smarter by writing something so supremely idiotic.
They were certainly words.
Guess what I tagged you as?
Is the last word “Cocopuffs?”
A maternity ward, no where close to people responsible for raping children…
you would be surprised what pediatricians like to do
Crossword puzzles? The Electric Slide? TikTok challenges? Don't leave me hanging.
apparently they like to downvote folk who point out that they rape children
Do you have actual data or are you just typing words online to see yourself talk?
Pediatricians are mandated reporters and are often the ones reporting abuse. I'm very curious about the offending rate.
i see news reports every day of new pediatricians being convicted. go dig them up yourself
Do you mean politicians? I see a lot of those articles. Or maybe pastors?
nope. unlike all y'all, i am capable of spelling and reading.
But not citations, apparently.
because i don't bookmark that shit. why the fuck would i want to?
An internet search should find articles if they're out there. The burden of proof is on the accuser. Why should anyone else go looking for evidence for your claim? I'm open to learning something new, but unless you provide data I'm done with this discussion. Bye.
I mean, I have the wealth of knowledge I do because when I'm suspicious of someone's position I research it myself instead of having a rando spoon feed me wrong or biased information like an LLM.
Plus, I like proving people wrong.
Sure, I do that too, but not every time. And I hate how easy it is to spread misinformation just by making stuff up. The "do your own research" crowd is lazy and destructive. Citing sources should be the bare minimum for dramatic accusations, especially when the person is claiming their knowledge comes from articles in the first place and not personal experience (in which case they should share that as anecdotal evidence) or giving some other reason why a source isn't available. Then we have a starting point for a discussion and further research.
So do your search Coward. This isn't logic class, this is real life and your rules about accusations ain't gonna stop them from raping
I'm just gonna leave this here and move on...
this ain't philosophy class or a courtroom. waving a webpage doesn't stop pediatricians from being pedos
yeah why would the abusers position themselves as the ones to report the abuse. that makes absolutely no sense. and police officers never commit crimes.
i can get you a saddle for a unicorn while you wait.
So you don't have any data and are just typing words online to see yourself talk.
I think I'm gonna make "the worlds on fire turds" part of my work email signature
Are the turds on fire, or the worlds (plural)?
I like to think that the author's intended message was that the plural worlds are resting on turds made of fire. Metaphorically, it kinda speaks to the spiciness of life itself and contrasts that with poop-planets.
Lol that is a great interpretation
