Should we ask how Max's vision is these days? That could explain not knowing where the torch smoke was coming from as well as his reluctance to read the applicable Lolly posts. Also, if we've identified the villager with the funky eye, maybe we can finally get some answers as to how that unfortunate accident occurred. Yeah, that guy does seem to be almost sort of reluctant standing off over a few steps to the right like that.  Not as much passion in his stare as the others ... He's clearly unconscious, just going through the torch/pitchfork motions.  |

Strictly speaking, he asked if you thought your reading of one of quinn's was good faith and then opined that it wasn't. In the linky you provided he asked "Okay so what is your good faith reading of what she said?" Yes, it was Quinn's post.  (** hangs head in utter total and absolute abject shame **)  |

Since he's not the evil frog he has a right to remain faithless.  Yeah, throwing rocks from inside his glass house.  Will his homeowners cover that?  |

You and Laffy are just jealous because they don't give out pitchforks to certain characters in the village because it's considered to be too dangerous. Here's an old video I found of you.

And I gave you a serious answer. You're trying to make a point about hypocrisy. That's fine. It seems like you are saying that I shouldn't give you a hard time about not being able to give a 'good faith' reading when i clearly can't do it myself. Eh? No. The the glass house metaphor was meant to do that, but it didn't require any comment on my part. The question as to why so many of the pics show somebody throwing stones from inside his own house and breaking his own glass was an unrelated curiosity. Didn't you ask me to give a good faith reading of one of Fig's posts?? I suppose it's possible but I don't recall. In any case, there isn't an inherent problem with occasionally asking for a good faith read, right? It would be annoying for it to be a general guideline, in my haughty opinion. |

I asked for him to try and do a good faith reading of one of Quinn's post. He tried and yes I opined that it didn't look like one to me. |

No I was saying my comment -- #funwithlogic -- was the joke. I wasn't interested in a good faith reading of the Lolly/Enigma post exchange. I cursorily read 'ugly' and 'not trying' which I translated to effortless and presto made a snarky remark. That's it. You're right I did not do a good faith reading. And I have never said I did (just the opposite). Why did you continue to defend your 'joke' to both me and L? Just trying to be clear from my angle at least. For example this last time I 'defended' it was because of what you had posted just previously: first mistaking what 'joke' I was referring to; and second, implying that the #funwithlogic joke had anything at all to do with a good faith reading, which it clearly did not. |

Yeah, throwing rocks from inside his glass house. Will his homeowners cover that? Lets see......It says "If covered structure is constructed of glass, insured shall not engage in throwing, or conveyance by any other mechanical means, projectiles onto neighboring properties". I guess not.  |

It's a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it.  |

This 'conversation' is a case in point, the point of which is not that you shouldn't ask for a good faith reading. Yea I'm not convinced you're very interested in good faith readings. Otherwise you would specifically ask which particular post you want treated that way. And if you want your Link Master to do the work, do the work to ask him. |

Nothing anyone ever really says makes any real difference, right? I mean, what's the point of the archive at all to begin with? Why keep it, why not just erase it every night?  |

And if you want your Link Master to do the work, do the work to ask him. Why not treat them all that way? Or, at the very least, shouldn't the ones involving discussion of someone's character be held to that standard? You see, the genesis of the torch meme are discussions that involve ideal behavior and ideal forum functioning (or the opposite of a non-ideal of either) as these relate to the objects of villager ire. This is why I didn't characterize you flat-out as holding a fork at first. In this case the meme applies because of what lolz wrote. You were only tangentially related to the mob because your interjection was premised on what lolz wrote. I know that you've been resisting that premise, but your resistance fails the "but-for" test. |
