where did you get the impression people thought ness was good? i would take your word for it but i've seen little evidence to the statement.
i'll leave it to battlecow to organize it in one tidy post
I'm not playing devil's advocate, but if I was, I'd be arguing for you right now, because that post officially makes you Satan.
You're wrong. First off, saying something in a confusing *** way so that people misinterpret it is not clever.
no offense mate but you come off as one of those pseudo-intellectuals analyzing bob dylan lyrics
guess how battlecow feels about bob dylan
Did I hurt your feelings? Was I too abrupt?
First of all, he was obviously referring to the MAJORITY of people, i.e. casual players, who believe that ness is good. Smashboards regulars have seen this to the point where it's become an in-joke. He is NOT better than his tier placing, yet the majority of people do not know that. It makes logical sense. You're confusing "people" with "we."
To be clear, I ignored the post at first because it appeared to be written by a non-native english speaker and upon seeing that it was about ness I had no interest in deciphering it further since I didn't care to see another ness argument.
A completely inconsequential and unreasonably emotionally charged smashboards argument in which I'm objectively right and my main opponent says things like "full with double negatives and just overall bad grammar"?
Guys, my birthday was two months ago.

Secondly, it was a joke, and would not have been funny if it had been said straightforwardly. The wordplay was the point. As for saying things in a "confusing way" (obviously not that confusing--I got it on the first read-through) not being funny-I'm surprised that an avid fan of hip-hop would feel this way. A lot of comedians would disagree with you. The humor is in the fact that he seems to be saying one thing but is in fact saying the opposite, and the fact that you didn't understand it at first doesn't invalidate it.
Good try. I wouldn't attempt to argue logically in your position either, because the number of legs you possess at the current moment that would serve to support the metaphorical weight of your argument is equal to the number of cubic liters of water your argument holds (hint: Also the score I give your grammar out of 10. You really shouldn't have opened up the can of grammar worms with a posting style like that.).
It might even have worked, but anyone who's been "lurking" the boards long enough that "in terms of unpredictability [his] advantage would be too much for [Isai]" (good one, by the way. I'm sure you're an absolute force to be reckoned with.) would have seen one of my Dylan-referencing posts already. Shouldn't have revealed that quite so soon.
And no offense, mate, but you come off as someone with a **** so far up his *** that semen's getting pumped out of his nostrils and onto the keyboard. Surely nothing short of this could lead you to classify the analyzing of Dylan lyrics as "pseudo" intellectual.
For those of us ignorant flopmericans that aren't as enlightened as Battlecow (and don't understand metric), I took the liberty of doing a little unit conversion. To help you visualize how much a cubic liter is, it's the space contained in a 3.937 inch by 3.937 inch by 3.937 inch by 3.937 inch by 3.937 inch by 3.937 inch by 3.937 inch by 3.937 inch by 3.937 inch box.
Yes. I cried.
part of the fun is the absurdity of how we are arguing about someone's post and that poster is not even part of it
i'm being sarcastic in case that isn't clear
It is an odd way of putting it. Once again, the fact that it appears to mean "a lot of untapped potential" but means the opposite is the source of its humor, because the actual outcome is different from the expected one. I didn't respond initially because I'd already addressed this point when I spoke to ballin'.
Yeah, and my point is that because it's "an odd way of putting it", it's easy to mistake it for "untapped potential" which is much more natural. So it's a simple mistake. So there's no need for "haw u guys so dum and slow, I r geniuser". There are other ways to boost your ego if you're desperate. Go beat up your scrubby friends in Smash 64 or something
You need to start being ashamed lol
i appreciate that you're trying to use your ethos to get you out of an argument, but it does little to someone who doesn't care about your 'mighty' posting resume. none of what you said pertains to the argument so i don't understand how anybody could logically believe that they proved something by swinging their e-**** around as a last resort.
True. You can be forgiven for making the mistake. But your initial argument was that there was actually something wrong with the post, when in fact the post was fine but you misunderstood it in its trickitude.
