I would feel like you’re either smart enough to have recognized the implication of answering that question truthfully, in which case you’re also smart enough to have understood the previous analogy and you were just pretending to be too dumb, or you’re just habitually manipulative because it tends to get you what you want most of the time, but you don’t really understand why.
In either case, this conversation is over because you’re clearly a liar and unwilling to admit when you’ve been caught. Have a good day.
I would feel like you answered my substantive response with a question about breakfast, and given your track record on analogies I thought I'd just skip the part where I try to figure out if it makes sense and ask you the answer directly.
You're one of these people who seems to think the world works how they think it should work.
And you’re one of those people who’s happy to use “the world doesn’t work the way you think it should work” as an excuse to lie, manipulate, and abuse others.
Is that what I'm doing? Why do you keep responding?
What you're doing lacks the coherence to even be called 'projection.'
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
How ironic.
Get thee behind me, Auld Clootie. You can't fool me.
Are you familiar with the saying "If you run into one asshole in the morning, that's the asshole. If you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole"?
I wonder if this applies to the devil as well.
I not familiar with that specific version of the saying, no.
The devil is probably surrounded by assholes and is one themself. So I'm not sure how it'd apply.
Any other questions?
Who is the Disco King and what do you want of him?
