    Now, is it too meta of me to point out that in being a pedant about the usage of the word "irony", you misused "fallacy"?

    In other news, I don't think these are the principlesss that Absolute Virtue wanted us to ssshow him. Clearly he has a total disssregard for the Englisssh language. I'd translate that bit of text from a few pages ago, but with six projects at work, I don't exactly have the time (though I obviously have time to waste F5'ing BG).

    How did I misuse the word fallacy? What most people believe to be irony actually isn't.

    (1): incongruity between the actual result of a sequence of events and the normal or expected result (2): an event or result marked by such incongruity b: incongruity between a situation developed in a drama and the accompanying words or actions that is understood by the audience but not by the characters in the play —called also dramatic irony tragic irony

    Basically, irony is when something happens that you're not usually lead to expect.

    Being misinformed isn't a fallacy. In order for a fallacy to exist, the argument itself must be flawed, not the basis of the argument.

    A fallacy is still a fallacy, even if you copy and paste it from a reliable source. Refer to that signature with House talking about religious people.

    It is ironic I find this current posting trend more entertaining than the original AV material?

    The irony would be if you actually could take something useful away from it and use that information to beat AV consistently.

    That everybody finds this trend entertaining is only typical.

    Now, go...irony this out and fellate no more.

    Somewhere, someone is trying to hate me to death for my crusade of trying to convince everyone that AV is defeatable.

    Unless surviving until he depops can lock benediction this is not exactly helpfu.
    I kind of chuckled when i read the article and he mentions zerging with rng's and blm's, it reminded of the RMT AV attempt that got AV to like 24% i think with nothing other then a tank pt with blm's constantly reraising and zerging
