Yes. As you know, a Bole is a stem, or the trunk of a tree. Hyper-bole is a really extremely big version of a bole.

Avoid that in forum debates.

Dear Mr. or Mrs. ZATZAi,

Allow me to introduce myself. I am Amy Weebler, not to be confused with spiritual leader and zen mistress, Aimee Weber. Thank you for your interest in my own personal rules of conduct when engaging in a forum debate. With no further ado, my tips begin forthwith and hitherto...


Find the root causes of the disagreement
When somebody disagrees with you, it's important to open your mind and try to understand exactly what is wrong with that person. While some forum users are indeed morally corrupt, others may simply suffer from head injuries sustained at a young age, Down Syndrome, Syphilis, Rabies, or hereditary intellectual limitations.

When responding, be sure to let your debating opponent know that you understand their handicap and you are willing help in any way you can.

"As it's clear that you're a complete idiot and a retard, I will use small words to help you understand..."


Martyrs win debates!
When engaged in an open exchange of ideas, nothing gets people to back off and shut up faster than an indignant outcry of your victimhood. While actual illustrations of yourself nailed to a crucifix are discouraged, a detailed description of your heart-wrenching suffering at the hands of those expressing contrary ideas will shift attention away from the shortcomings of your argument.


Attack the person, not the ideas
Remember that even the most well researched, well formed, and logical argument is wrong if the person writing it looks bad. Go ahead and attack their physical appearance, moral character, or questionable parentage. If you must, lie about them. Remember that writing something on the internet is different from writing it on a piece of paper ... it's like a magic safe zone ... and as such libel laws do not apply.*


Make ample use of profanity to highlight your passion

Here is a helpful protip: Using your editor's search and replace feature, replace punctuation with profanity.

While this argument is drab, boring, and uninspiring:
"I disagree, your candidate is not being sincere. Even though my candidate did the same things as yours, it's completely different."

A simple replace makes it sound more grown-up and confident:

"I disagree fuckhead your candidate is not being sincere asswipe Even though my candidate did the same things as yours fuckhead it's completely different asswipe"

I wouldn't fuck with this dude, would you??



*Libel information provided for informational and entertainment purposes only. Consult your lawyer before committing libel on the internet.

While Aimee's rules were good, most of us know them already, it's just a matter of actually sticking to them. Mr. Weeblers on the other hand, are brilliant!

I kinda doubt she means you specifically. I'm guilty of at least one of those too.

interestingly enough, when i think back upon epics such as the ron paul thread, or the americans arent stupid thread, or the anne coulter thread, i see myself following OPs rules while getting shouted down and what not.
yet i am the one that is know for ad hominems and insults?

prinţesă, I'm speaking honestly when I say that this thread is not directed at you. I outfit Weebler in the humorous parody du jour from time to time (formerly a chav look because of Muka's thread about chavs.) Your "prinţesă is always right" and "prinţesă is beautiful" etc ads was just too perfect to pass up. But that shouldn't be taken to imply all Weebler's posts are about you.

Truth be told, I actually haven't seen you wage ad hominem attacks and in general I actually do like you.

Sorry for confusion.
