But the fact is that essentially what you said was incorrect. Them speaking that way is not in fact 'ingrained in their DNA'. That is factually incorrect. You can claim metaphor all day long, but what is right there on screen to be read by everyone is an incorrect statement. Then it is made all the more egregious by the irony of being directly after you invoke an understanding of science. You obviously do not understand how science is written about. Sorry.

the essentially was for the aspect of the SPC language barrier i was trying to address, because this shit has been explained to him, like many things have, before. i even told you this already, that this was because i was trying to talk to him. https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/23627187#23627187
and that's why i said what i said. and i'm allowed to be fucking ignorant of the technicalities of fucking GENETICS, jesus, i'm not a fucking geneticist, nor would i read any literature about it, because i haven't really gotten there yet. and how is that a problem? i'm not TALKING TO YOU.
i wasn't being literal. again, i was being figurative. for the sake of addressing SPC.

Ok buddy. Maybe try not being so willy nilly with your supposed metaphors when addressing subjects you admittedly don't have a good grasp on. You will spare yourself the embarrassment of making false claims. Also I don't give a shit who you were talking to. I can reply to whomever I please.

yeah, that's true, you can. but i was not addressing the subject you apparently think i was. i was addressing what SPC said and referencing what Crumist said.
i wasn't talking about genetics nor explaining genetics, i was explaining how SPC didn't apparently get the memo that what he was talking was bullshit. that's all i was explaining, generally. the genetics was not the issue -- that's why i used a metaphor. so stfu already and again, learn something...i post here and have fun posting with the words i use. don't like it, there's a nig button.

All I'm saying is that your supposed metaphor was dumb because taken literally it was an incorrect statement. Don't you realize that anyone can make any false statement they want and just claim they were using the words metaphorically? Words have literal meanings for a reason. Metaphors play on those literal meanings. I've just now realized that you don't actually understand what metaphors are. Carry on.

you consistently misconstrue what language defines, and also, you constantly mistake an explanation for an excuse, like now. you're basically fruitlessly trying to one-up me to no avail. it's pointless. i've explained to you the rationale behind the comment. it wasn't directed at you. it was directed at someone else, and i used FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE (i didn't say "ingrained" was a metaphor, but it could be. i did however say that what i was using to explain to you about how language works was a metaphor. carry on) to explain my point to him, which wasn't about genetics.
it was about language.

Pro-tip - You'll never dig your way to China, you'll only hit earth's core and start MELTING
That's a metaphor, in case you missed it.

um, what i used, that which clock constantly keeps cocking about, my "ingrained" quote, was not a metaphor. it was a figure of speech. you know what a figure of speech is? metaphor. but i wasn't making a metaphor. i was just talking figuratively.

I think you may be literally retarded. Don't worry, I was speaking figuratively.

Lol. If you ever find yourself in a thread thinking a_a is making the most sense, that's a sign you need to lay down the pipe.

Logically implies that you are the only one making sense and are therefore making the most sense. Try harder next time.

he still didn't imply i was making the most sense. nor him. he didn't imply that either. he's just saying you calling me retarded is retarded. stop being retarded.
you think i need to talk only literal technical academia and/or professional discourse, when addressing genetics or language (either or or both, you never made yourself clear), and i'm telling you...i'm fucking talking to SPC. not you. if i was talking to you, i'd not put it to you that way, or at least, if i did, and you didn't get it, then i'd get your frustration. but not now. now you are just ... abjectly and miserably trying to defend some stupid shit SPC said, and/or just getting on my case about nothing...figuratively speaking...more like your butthurt.
