    Not really. I'm just trying to figure out how it's bait and switch. Or what it is you meant by it.

      well I guess I'll have to break it down for you after all. His original fuss was about me mentioning porn stars, I explained why. Then when that was done he moved to another point to re-assert some justification. He baited with the porn stars ...then switched with something else. I guess maybe he just changed goal posts, but bait and switch is a change of goal posts anyways.

      Also, as economist Kaushik Basu says: "For a nation to progress it is important for people to spend time on science, mathematics and literature instead of spending time showing that 5,000 years ago their ancestors did science, mathematics and literature."

          We are discussing your behaviour and your behaviour consists of more than one trait. You don't want to bite on the "bait" because you know what the consequences will be. No one enjoys being wrong.

          You know very well who I am. Don't pretend you don't by referring to me as a "he".

            No, there was no switch. Originally there was an express precedent utilized to articulate the qualm; conversely, the other following posts were generic. Qualm remained unaltered.

            Anyhow... I understand what you meant by it, so... honestly, may not be any need to keep going with this.

              Nope. it was certainly a switch, they switched from one thing to another. They lost that point so they went to another to validate their original "scrutiny".

                Ok sorry, "Gender Non-Binary Organism" ...better ? Sorry, I don't want to bite because you're trying to switch the topic when your original one was answered.

                • I asked you why you never find the need to participate in arguments that call for positive examples to give out or why you never have anything positive or decent to pass on to others, you said you don't want to answer that question because apparently, doing so was equivalent to biting on a bait. In other words, you knew you were going to land yourself in trouble with whatever answer you provided me and that there was no way out of it.

                  Telling someone that you don't have an answer for their question because you consider yourself perpetually defeated (that was not my first choice of a word to place there) is not avoiding the problem, it's admitting that you are useless.

                        • Well damn, there it goes again. I must be losing my mind. Sounds like a starved dog too.

                          • Gender Non-Binary Organism.

                            That's not what bait and switch implies. Bait and switch in this context implies when someone brings up some point, generally irrelevant, and when they have had that point rectified ...move to another point pretending as if the original one wasn't rectified. None of this elaborate self comforting nonsense you're telling yourself was involved.

                            Also, sometimes highlighting unpleasant things is positive because it makes me people realize the urgency of their situation, so I believe I'm doing a service. Take it as you will.

                            • Before I started participating in this thread, you along with shamlawar were talking about how some women in that video were trashy and this or that. To which, the dog, also known as khushal, commented on how you were being a hypocrite which you convinently ignored.
                              I took that one step ahead by reminding you that you yourself were an individual with hobbies such as pasting pictures of naked women and pornstars in the internet. You diverted attention from that by saying no, you participate in discussions where you give out good information too, which to my knowledge, I have yet to come across. Furthermore, when I reminded you that talking randomly about pornstars in subjects that have nothing to do with pornstars is not a very decent way of resolving a dispute in a thread about Pakistanis and that a decent person would not do that. At this point, you refused to answer my question and started whining about how you were being force fed a bait.


                              In other words A) you don't have an answer for me and B) khushal, also known as the Dog, bull****s when he says that I gossip when in fact, I was elaborating on a point he accidentally blurted out like the typical moron that he has proved himself to be over the last seven to eight years.

                              Okay??
