I used slight sarcasm, but it wasn't crude (the dick sucking was crude, I'll be sure to stick to fellatio from now on). It was meant to bring the point home. You CAN do that in a debate. I've had communication class recently and it is well accepted...in the case we are getting technical on what constitutes a debate.
Agreed to disagree. Also, it's my belief that senseless mudslinging and cynical remarks are the death of modern debate. Having taken a few dabate classes myself I find myself in disagreeance with a number of their "acceptable" practices.

I will not embark on that type of discussion again with anyone on this forum. I know for sure that it's only use is for mindless chatter. I stepped back for a few months and got PM's about how I should post more and I kind of missed IA when I was bored. I wanted to come back and try to stay on the topics of REAL discussion. I now know that I cant do that – either because I can't handle myself in a way that doesn't offend others, or vice versa. So, Ran, thanks for the reminder
If you ever cared to check back at the thread, you'd see that I pretty much retracted that comment immediately since, after reading it, I realized that my wording was a bit harsh. In any case, it was not my intentions to hurt your feelings or affect your outlook on the website to this degree, but do what keeps you happy.
