So are you saying that the posts you make online, here, are reflective of the person you are in real life?

If so, that's not really a particularly flattering image of yourself to put forward. Although at the very least, nobody could ever fault you for being insincere.

gross, dude

she may be an idiot, but do we really have to bring misogyny of all things into this festering shitheap?

oh, great, more patronizing non-sequiturs.

truly you have the oratory skills of churchill himself.

it's interesting that you project this image of a pasty basement dweller with poor fashion sense onto me. very telling.

well, i suppose we all draw from our own best-known experience..

oh, i get the joke now

the joke is that you aren't capable of putting together any sort of cogent rebuttal when someone calls you on your bullshit, so you just resort to half-assed ad hominems while a bunch of sycophants jeer and mewl "but WHY are all these people PICKING on YOU?!?!"

that's too bad, I was hoping for something funnier

So, #21

ambiguous so-called 'garden path' sentences like this one are a pretty cool way of examining how we actually parse language.

When we read something like a complex sentence, rather than reading the entire sentence as a single unit of meaning, we 'chunk' it into smaller units which are easier for our brain to process.

but sometimes when we encounter ambiguity, like in "fruit flies like a banana", we unconsciously apply our own expectations to the sentence, and then when the sentence fails to comply with those expectations, our notion of meaning falls apart, we have to go back and give it a second interpretation. So sentences with ambiguous meaning take much longer in semantic processing than other unambiguous complex sentences.

this kind of stuff is really only interesting to about a dozen psycholinguists hidden away in the cornres of various universities.

i think maybe you should consult a different biology text.

because someone has been lying to you, apparently about a great many things.

is the obvious joke that you don't appear to know what 'ironic' means?

or 'pun'?

or is the joke that you are now hilariously backpedalling, waving your arms and frantically shrieking "NO GUYS, SEE, I *MEANT* TO SHIT MY PANTS! HAHA YEAH, IT WAS JUST A TROLL THIS WHOLE TIME"

oh shit, maybe the joke is that you are conitinuing to troll the rest of us even now.

dude, you're a genius. very ironic and punny of you.
