Cancer and the drug companies

I'll take that as a "sorry man, I've got nothing".

Irony overload.

Irony overload.

If I state something as a fact then I'm happy to back it up.

.....so everything else from you is bullshit unless stated as fact?

[bogan]

If I state something as a fact then I'm happy to back it up.

I'm curious as to where exactly it was stated as fact though?

[Katman]

.....so everything else from you is bullshit unless stated as fact?

If I don't state it as fact then it is merely stated as opinion.

[Maha]

If I don't state it as fact then it is merely stated as opinion.

....and if someone disagrees with that opinion (not always fact) then they are a moron because why?

[husaberg]

I'd go with Katmandoo-doo.

Katman 'evidence' = vague generalisations and obscure physical estimates, often gleened from agenda-focussed internet sites.

Some people would call it gossip. But I'm not that nasty

Usually because they struggle to express their opinion in any sort of intelligent form.

"You.Are.Wrong." comes across quite strongly as stating as fact that there are people who have died from a cannabis overdose.

No, that's a strong opinion. Like when you say somebody is wrong or a moron or whatever for having an opinion contrary to your own; it is just a strongly worded opinion.

So you're still just trying to put a higher burden of proof onto others to justify your own hypocrisy and stupidity.

[Katman]

No, that's a strong opinion. Like when you say somebody is wrong or a moron or whatever for having an opinion contrary to your own; it is just a strongly worded opinion.

"I think you are wrong" is stating an opinion.

[husaberg]

No, I'm just wondering how fucking stupid you're prepared to make yourself sound.

You wouldn't recognise fact if it fucked you up the arse.

Debating with fucking morons is becoming tiresome.

What a fucking condescending dickhead.
Fucking moron.

You really are a bitter piece of work, aren't you?

You seem to struggle when it comes to answering questions

Fuck off dickhead, debating with the likes of me is the only exercise your excuse for a fucking brain gets.

I would challenge everyone to sit through this movie with an open mind.(I realise that rules out Bogan and Ed).

"I think you are wrong" is stating an opinion.

And explicitly so, just as 'It's a fact that...' is explicitly stating a fact. Things in between are simply contextually implicit, ie, when you say 'you're a moron' you don't need the 'i think' qualifier because it is obviously an opinion. There endeth the lesson for now as I have work; perhaps do your own research and learn about the glorious nuances of the english language so you can better communicate with others.
