I think people are more against your whole "I'm never wrong! It's a conspiracy!" schtick than they are with you actually being wrong. Accept that you were wrong and move on, and nobody's going to care. Fight it out for 100+ posts and, yeah, even the admins are mocking you.
Ceej:
Harle didn't imply all schools did, he said his schools didn't. :/
I like how people ignore the post where I admit I'm wrong and act like it never happened. And then, they ignore the post where I say I like the part where people ignore the post where I admit I'm wrong and act like that post never happened.
You know what's wrong with you people? You think you know me so Goddamn well. You think you have this idea of what I'm like, and any time (which is all the time) I say or do something against your mold for me, you pretend like it never happened lest you be forced to admit you're wrong about me.
YOU'RE ALL WRONG ABOUT ME! ALL OF YOU! YOU DON'T KNOW ME AT ALL!
Now, that being said, let me give you a little anecdote where my younger brother and I had a conversation about this thread yesterday.
Ceej: Which planet is the smallest? Of the ones that were considered planets when we were in school?
Ceej's Brother, Apex: It's either Mercury or Pluto.
Ceej: Well, which one is it?
Apex: I think it's Pluto.
Ceej: You think?
Apex: Yeah. School taught us that it was Mercury, but I think that's wrong.
I admitted, several posts ago, that I had been wrong about it being Mercury. Now, I'm only arguing what I had been taught, but you're acting like I never admitted I was wrong.
And Roto, as far as the other thing goes, in addition to it not being in my dictionary, you guys can't even agree on what umami is. Some of you say meat. Others say tea, which is bitter and sweet. Still others say MSG, which is salty. Maybe it exists. Maybe it's real. But you can't tell me we knew about it back in elementary school. People have posted links proving they had just recently come up with it. That's like if I said trans fat didn't exist and you called me stupid for not being taught about trans fat in school when they just discovered it last year.
So, maybe umami exists, even though my Firefox says it's not a word, which means it was only added as a word in the last few months because my Firefox is fairly new, but it's so new that you guys are still confused on what, exactly, it is. Consider this the best concession you'll get from me on umami.
Now I use a huge font so you can't say you didn't see me say I was wrong on one issue, even though I've already said it twice in this thread alone, and may possibly be wrong on another. Still, I know what I was taught in schools.
EDIT: I do believe this thread is over. I highly doubt anyone can bring anything new to it.
I love how right in the middle of your big whiny post where you bitch and moan that nobody believes you can admit when you're wrong, you're still refusing to admit that you're wrong.
Dang, this thread is still going on? It never ceases to amaze me how people can argue about anything. =D
Apex is a funny name.
People love pettiness. It's very difficult to try and give up on a completely lost cause over the interbutz.
I feel like going to the casino, how about you, Roto?
I have this system that is bound towinfail.
Mangina. xD
I'll be stuck with that mental image now.
Well, I still maintain that an onion is a mixture of the various tastes, INCLUDING umami! What about you guys?
Anyone who says sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain.
Yeah, well I think Mercury is bigger then Pluto, MY SCHOOL SAID SO!!!
