blf drinking game: take a shot every time somebody mentions fallacies

The picture doesn't even really communicate what my error was. It just begs the question of why you're saying I'm misrepresenting your argument.

[Tactical Nuke]

I mean, this entire thread is just Tactical Nuke scraping the bottom of the barrel for any excuse to defend this guy. I don't think he believes body slamming people is okay, but he's clearly somewhat deluded.

I wanted to see evidence, when I saw the evidence and the fact that he was going to court, I conceded

I said nothing anywhere in this thread that condones bodyslamming people or physically assaulting people
I had issues with the attack being described as "bodyslamming" because it seemed overly ridiculous to me
that doesn't mean I think he didn't attack him, it's pretty clear at this point that he did

and that last post had nothing condoning assault anywhere

and then you posted a strawman image like a tool. You're automatically wrong now no matter  what

Then why don't you just loving say that instead of smugly posting a vague image hinting at it

I would reply saying everyone does this but I have a feeling you don't care

Now you're actually legitimately strawmanning me. If I didn't care, I wouldn't have pointed it out. If you told him that he's misrepresenting your point instead of posting a silly meme he would have known exactly what you meant, but now we're here.

I should have said wouldn't care (about the fact that a lot of people post pictures instead of elaborating, not about your question)

faulty wording on my part

Girls you're both pretty

What the hell do you think I meant when I made a drinking game joke? Y'all reading what I'm posting or..?
