      So it was a meltdown then, regardless of the qualifiers you are putting in there to save face? Thank you.

      In future, please try to leave your ego at the door when talking about statements of fact.

      Thanks for at least somewhat reluctantly admitting that you were wrong, even if it took far too long and you couldn’t do it without trying to save face by arguing unimportant details.

      This is progress! Well done.

          I’m talking about the word meltdown, and how it refers to a meltdown.

          That is how language works.

          I’m sorry you are having trouble with it, but please stop with the ad hominems, they are childish and should be beneath you. You should really know better at your age.

              Yes, the government DOES list it as a meltdown, thank you. Honestly it can be so difficult to get through to you sometimes.

              Speaking of words and grasping their meaning, when you childishly accused me of ‘circlejerking in the corner’ just a moment ago, in an obvious and unnecessary attack on my character, aka an ad hominem, you actually used that phrase incorrectly as well!

              Allow me to explain - a circle jerk is when a minimum of two men jerk one another off, creating a “circle” of “Jerking”.

              When you lost your temper and began throwing meaningless insults in a manner very inappropriate for this forum, the term you would use more correctly would have simply been “Jerking it”, as you were accusing me of masturbating ON MY OWN in the corner.

              Please work on both your manners and your grasp of the English language if you are going to continue to insist on asking for my attention.

                  So if you didn’t lose your temper, were you genuinely asking me direct inappropriate questions of a sexual nature?

                  I mean losing your temper is one thing, but this is beginning to look like you are making unwarranted sexual comments to a stranger.

                  Please do not do that, I am not interested and I do not consent to you talking about me in a sexual manner. I will consider any further talk in this manner sexual harrasment.

                    Warning: Rule 3

                    Pre-emptively characterizing future responses as sexual harassment is textbook bad faith.

                    Also, you both should’ve stopped a long time ago. Or, if you insisted on continuing, should’ve clarified the terms of discussion, which clearly revolved around what “meltdown” meant.
