It's a revealing insight to see that you think cumdrunk can apply to someone besides youself. You just can't imagine people who aren't like you and don't do that sort of thing can you?

Did I say or infer that? No, you just thought it and since you're so full of yourself you decided I must have said it because the only thing that's real to you is what goes on inside your own head and you can't imagine something could be different from the way you want it to be.

Where do I do this? Oh, we're back inside your little monkey head where whatever you want to think is the truth, without any connection with my posts.

Do I now? Someone who could think clearly might conclude that by going with the majority I'm doing the exact opposite. But then thinking clearly means understanding that things aren't simply what you want them to be and dealing rationally with that fact.

Do you mean drug and alcohol abuse are character traits? I keep going back to my post to find what you're referring to but come up empty. I must be doing a lot of things inside your head.

Skeptic: One who instinctively or habitually doubts, questions, or disagrees with assertions or generally accepted conclusions. Not "ponders and considers the data". Let's not go making up definitions now even if that's what you want to be true.

Wow, this is really just absurd. Could I goad you into providing an example? Come on, just do it, back up your rhetoric, prove you know what you're talking about, walk your talk, don't be chicken, "bawk-bawk-bawk".

That's right. I've gone along with everything in this thread without a trace of doubt. I have unquestionably believed every word of every post and link. So what's your point?
