You're viewing part of a thread.
I didn't even take a stance on what the teeth mean for diet. I was just correcting you lol.
I mean the source you provided literally says the bottom canines are less pointy and pronounced than the top set, especially in humans, so I don't feel very corrected? You keep at it though, I believe in you!
Less pointy != not pointy but go off bb.
Go rip some fresh animal flesh straight off the bone with those pointy bad boys then, bb.
I can do that with my front teeth, they're like blades...
Yeah, front teeth are awesome. I opened the outer hull of a coconut once with mine.
says the bottom canines
The bottom what? Bottom canines? So you're arguing they're not what they are literally called?
Still dying to know how the tooth's name at all indicates anything of its function. Canines are literally omnivores. Most primates use theirs for fighting. So please, if you're done with the ad hominem I'd love to see you try to defend this here comment.
If you’re done with the ad hominem
What ad hominem is that?
"garbage" 'gibbering nonsense'
Are you a conservative by chance? Masterfully sidestepping the question yet again!
Are you a conservative by chance?
Was that meant as an ad hominem? I thought you didn't like those.
Garbage was a reference to what you were adding to the "discussion", not you as a person, so doesn't qualify as ad hominem.
Same for gibbering nonsense.
I ask you questions and you sidestep them over and over and over again and I'm adding garbage to the conversation?
Yes, you add garbage into the conversation (disingenuous questions) and you get garbage out (me ignoring the question).
That's another word you got wrong. I'm not sidestepping anything. I am blatantly ignoring it.
Or is it only fun when you're doing it?
I’m just having a good time.
What, so now I'm not allowed to enjoy arguing with strangers on the Internet? Why don't you just kill me.
My question wasn't any more disingenuous than the comment it followed. Everything I have said is in good faith. Calling my arguments that you can't refute garbage is absolutely ad hominem, no matter how diffuse you try to sound. Every comment you've made since I pointed that out has been ad hominem tu quoque, or a 'no, you.' So while this was fun at the start, unless you have something to say about teeth I'm gonna go talk with the adults. And yes that was ad hominem, suck my whole ass.
Calling my arguments
Oh, so you have an argument now?
Nobody arguing in good faith says:
What’s my argument? I’m listening.
If you feel like your argument has been misinterpreted, or that a counter argument is irrelevant, someone who is arguing in good faith would restate their argument to indicate why the counter argument was irrelevant. Not "guess what my argument is" so that they can avoid stating something that would have to actually defend.
Every comment you’ve made since I pointed that out has been ad hominem tu quoque, or a ‘no, you.'
Your entire post was a "no you". Pointing out your insincerity and hypocrisy is not a tu quoque, because I'm not trying to convince you of anything. I'm just pointing out your insincerity and hypocrisy.
Everything I have said is in good faith
Ah yes, that classic markers of someone having a good faith discussion:
If you want to feel better about your choices I’m not the one you need to convince.
Downvote if you can’t refute!
unlike you I have a philosophy of live and let live.
(There's another of your trademark ad hominem attacks!)
You keep at it though, I believe in you!
Cool, thanks. Very helpful. Loving talking to you, it’s been so constructive.
The world is full of things that have nothing to do with you. Instead of getting bent out of shape about it you can just move along. You don’t get the reference? Keep scrolling, it’s not for you.
You guys are so funny! Okay so FOUR semi-pointy teeth absolutely makes us omnivores I CANNOT believe what an idiot I’ve been!
Canines are literally omnivores
Oh my God!! 😱 It's almost like humans are omnivores too 😱, who could've guessed?
Are you insinuating that having canines makes you an omnivore because we have been over this several times how almost every mammal regardless of diet has flat molars and sharp incisors, and yes even canines. Heck, water deer have turned their canines into long fangs and they still only eating that herb
It's almost like there's different evolutionary factors of how canines are formed. oh my God what the fuck wow, who could have guessed. 😱 I wonder what the human evolutionary factors were. It couldn't possibly be a lack of food and a evolutionary benefit of eating a much wider diet or anything.
🤨
And how, pray tell, does the name 'canines' factor into your argument? I'm dying to know.
I never had an argument. Just pointing out the flaws in yours.
What's my argument? What are the flaws?? I'm listening.
If you don't even know then I guess you're just gibbering nonsense.
Cool, thanks. Very helpful. Loving talking to you, it's been so constructive.
As they say: garbage in, garbage out.
Clearly.
