    Let me introduce you to the world of paraphrasing. That was the mantra, it has since pivoted to post-hoc scolding and gloating in the vein of: “I just fantasized about the republicans killing you”

      Paraphrasing, eh? Neat world! Neat word too. But I have a quick question about this… paraphrasing world of yours:

      “I just fantasized about the republicans killing you”

      Can you tell me who exactly this phrase is para’d from? Did I say that right? Either way, if you can’t, well… that’s another lie you’ve been caught in, right? What would that be?

      Three in this thread alone?

          So, your example is some butt-hurt Hexbear mods that need to be introduced to the world of sarcasm?

          And speaking of-

          OMG! I honestly believed you though I didn’t know what paraphrasing meant!

          /s

          And for the record: Hexbear links aren’t going to be acceptable as evidence to anything other than proof that literacy isn’t an accurate representation of intelligence.

            lol any more requirements officer?

            you want my papers?

            if you’re just going to ignore anything I do provide and call me a liar I’m not gonna be motivated to engage in good faith.

            OMG! I honestly believed you though I didn’t know what paraphrasing meant!

            honestly not sure what you’re even trying to say anymore

              Provide something substantial. I promise I won’t ignore it. It’s not who I am. But if you’re going to try and use The Sorcerer’s Secret to prove that Harry Potter really exists…

              I am going to doubt you.
