since lalam feels the need to re-rebut a post from two pages ago..
I asked 2 questions, they were not accusations.
Those were rhetorical questions, I'm going to quote wikipedia here
Rather, it is a device used by the speaker to assert or deny something.
Unless of course you want to claim that you honestly expected an answer.
1. We have yet to establish that Scream is lying, throwing in the obvious point that he's assuming stuff.
2. Did Scream start the topic? No. Scream is going to argue it one way or another because they may want to get the point accross. We don't know, but for him to assume otherwise implies that you think you can determine the cause of someone's actions using generalizations.
It's actually looking like Scream isn't lying but I guess we'll find out. Blockland's track record for boys pretending to be girls isn't too great, and it certainly doesn't help that Scream has carried on this thread for 16 pages (don't say they didn't start the thread again because I am in fact aware of that; but like I said over IRC, I would expect someone to confirm/deny something once and be done with it if they weren't lying).
by the way mister I'm-assuming-everything, I am not in denial.
Now then, what point did he establish, Jess?
can I post the picture spock drew of general nick's ego here but with your name on it
