The shadow! - Page 4

I'm aware that my debating skills are fairly poor, which is why I do my best to avoid debates and usually just clarify points of my faith to people who get them wrong, or try to correct someone's basic logic.

This is, of course, because the only goal of debating with most people on this site is to win and make yourself look incredibly awesome.

I'm the same. My beliefs have changed significantly in the years since I came to NL, but not once has anyone disproved God to me. No, this is not an invitation for you to try and convince me, as I said before, I'm not interested right now.

Hell yes it was one of them. Did you see how much fun Jaxy and I were having?

I think my pop at a RAEG strip summed this whole thing up for me.

**Tsuna** · 01-18-2009, 09:57 PM

Lmao Jaxon XD

Ero · 01-18-2009, 10:00 PM

JAXON!

an NL weekly comic strip

DO IT

Jaxon · 01-18-2009, 10:01 PM

I'd totally be up for that.

Kina · 01-18-2009, 10:04 PM

Do an hourly comic strip. D: We need mass amount of injected lulz.

**Mal** · 01-18-2009, 10:07 PM

A whole hour? Laaaaaaaaaaaame.

UchihaTaijiya · 01-18-2009, 10:16 PM

I laughed at the strip, but I'd rather you just do strips when inspiration strikes. They wont ever be forced then. xD

Awesome.

Also, vampires don't have reflections. So I think shadowlessness could be supernatural still. Actually, I don't care. Shadows are stupid. If anyone tried to give me shit for not having a shadow I'd punch him in the face. I doubt many people would give me shit after that. Fuck yeah.

I'd wish to be a highly advanced cybernetic badass hero with hardcore combat training and a perpetually recharging power supply. I'd also have a cyber dong that emits orgasm inducing high-pitched soundwaves, be normal human weight due to lightweight yet extremely durable materials, possess self-repairing technology, and be nearly indistinguishable from a normal human looks wise. So I'd be a robotic immortal killing machine / babe banging bot. Oh man, that'd be ace.

This is how everyone should have reacted to my post, if they really make such a big deal out of it.

I wish no one had shadows.

Whoa, wait a second here. I was re-reading this thread and I can't believe I missed this the first time through. SOLID MOTHER FUCKING SNAKE once used an owl to trick a guard into thinking it was night while the guard was standing outside in the middle of the day.

Obviously SOLID SNAKE is the greatest schemer/deceiver ever. Not this devil clown.

You guys just mainly suck at debating. Miburo is good, but he insults and I end up doing it back in retaliation so I don't debate with him as much as usual. 48 is good, Mashed is smart but never debates. You, IMHO, don't really know how to debate. This is mainly because I don't think you really question your beliefs much. Same for SK. Of course, this is based on an indirect observation of mine that does not necessarily support my opinion on your debating skill.

People on this site mainly debate just to win. I personally see it as a learning experience.

Again, whoa. I strengthen my resolve and conviction all the time through debating, constantly evolving my argument in the process. And I learn much about my opponents as well. You can learn a lot about people through conflict, afterall. I'm just as curious, if not more so, about the people I'm debating as I am in the topic I'm debating. Which is partially the reason why I jest and get condescending. To see how people react. And because I'm a dick. =p

Besides, it's not like I resort to using ad hominens instead of producing arguments and counter-arguments. I just mock people while busting out the debating skillz.

And there isn't anything wrong with playing to win. It's not like you can't win AND learn at the same time. And if your argument is flawed then you can't win against a good debater anyway. So if you play to win then you're going to have to learn and improve regardless. If learning is your ultimate goal, then you should want your opponent to go all out to win and you should do the same. Adversity is the catalyst to understanding and enlightenment. Debates aren't discussions, don't confuse the two.
