Shit has reached critical levels of stupidity. Anti-vax movement.

[MF Perm tha Fineass]

Actually, I was trying to clarify mistaken assumptions on your parts, I would personally be horrified if I found out I'd been arguing like a dumb dick based on the erroneous assumption that someone else thought exactly the same way I do.

In this specific example, I was just pointing out a common mistake, one that I myself did not learn about until talking to someone of Austrian descent, which had nothing to do with the rest of the stupid shit flung around by others.


I didn't start this fire, but I'll happily dance around like an idiot with the rest of you.

did you know that in english we call Nippon Japan? Also, you're an idiot please keep this up.

And tell your mom to move the toothpicks we don't need you getting distracted on us now.

The term is named after the person who identified it, Webster is not correct here, what's next, you're going to tell me you shouldn't pronounce Riemann (ree-mahn) because it is weird to do that for Americans? Fuck that, you were wrong, it's ok, it happens.

The way we pronounce Osama Bin Lauden is not the way he pronounces it. The way we pronounce Hitler is not the way he pronounced it. The way we pronounce Queen Elizabeth is not the way she pronounces it. I'm not wrong. We speak with a different dialect and yes even names get pronounced differently in different countries even when we're referring to a specific person.

I'm not arguing, I'm pointing out a mistake in what is actually a helpful mood. I assume that anyone who made a mistake like this would like to know about it, as I tend to assume everyone thinks like I do, unless reminded otherwise. Horrible theory of mind, etc.

aka, you're posting on the internet the SAME way everyone else does. We must all have autism.

Oh really, you don't see ANY signs of me having problems carrying a regular conversation/argument?

Not any better or worse than any other forum nerd (I'm one too, that must make me autistic!)

You are apparently an expert on the subject, yet you don't recognize a common thread in discussions I'm involved in?

aka, again you post on the internet and have no problem discussing things with people.

Perhaps you don't know the subject as well as you think?

More than you at least. I'm not an expert, but I've worked with autistic kids a good part of my life. You just pretend to be one.

Nor did you consider that the type of social difficulties which are most prevalent for autistic people involve non-verbal communication, body language, context, non-literal meanings, whatnot.

Hell, there's an idea, might it just be that you find a lot of auties online because there is no need to deal with those forms of communication, making this an ideal outlet for what little urge to communicate with other humans that we do have?

Oh if you had those to the DEGREE you need to be classified as autistic, then you wouldn't have a gf. Also, again you need exhibit signs in two categories of autism to be labeled autistic.

Again, THE FACT you are having this conversation in itself shows you have no interaction difficulties.


Don't bother, I won't believe you. You can't go back and try and prove you are.

internet autism

needs to become an official phrase, officially.

[Mertron]

I hope someone else is enjoying the irony of max trying to convince us that he's retarded

tons, because, as I said several times XD, I know what they're really like. And the fact he wants people to believe he's one is awesomely funny.

now why would you go and do that. now the doctor is gonna tell me that I talk like a fag and my shits all retarded

[pahnphoenix]

re: pronunciation, it's more or less irregular and localized whether we pronounce various proper names the way our dialect would have us or how the word's source would have us. it's pretty fluid. "correcting" max's pronunciation is a bit in error, but so is max "correcting" other people's pronunciation. it all varies by situation.

e.g. i feel weird saying 'carry-oh-key', but i'm non-aspairgerz enough to realize that people insisting on saying 'ka-ra-oh-kay' are pretty annoying. at the same time, i'll talk about the composer 'vahg-ner', not 'wag-ner', and i actually would correct someone who said 'wag'. i study 'vitt-gen-shtein' not 'witt-gen-stein', even though i'm surely pronouncing it improperly even my own way. this shit just varies.

re: everything else, carry on.

[Kuya]

Maxtm, have you ever considered that you don't suffer from autism, but rather, douche syndrome?

[Day]

Summer's Eve will clear that right up with the added benefit of frolicking through a field of wheat.

[Plow]

Max would manage to fuck that up and turn it into a backwards run though a corn field, though.

[Cleverness]

Wonder how long Max is gonna search wikipedia for a comeback

[Kuya]

Change thread title to anti-max movement.

[Rhyis.]

Did this really just happen?
