Look up "anthypophora".

A figure of reasoning in which one asks and then immediately answers one's own questions (or raises and then settles imaginary objections). Reasoning aloud.
Anthypophora sometimes takes the form of asking the audience or one's adversary what can be said on a matter, and thus can involve both anacoenosis and apostrophe.
Confusedearch hehehe big word :jump :thumb:

:lol: Yes, it is. A big word meaning a rhetorical question. :lol:

I didn't directly answer my own question directly afterwards, so maybe it isn't precisely an anthypophora, but I certainly didn't intend for anybody to answer me. What can I say? Some people just like to fight. And I know some people have probably been waiting for the chance to "stick it to me" yet strangely, I remain unscathed. lol.

Once again, a lot of people said some nice shit in this thread and I thank ya. :thumb:

Wow. As if your ego didn't get the stroking you so desperately needed by posting that filth (the first to do so despite NOT being the first she told), you made a tentative, defensive "apology" and then claimed my criticism was a fault of my conflict-lusting personality. You're really hard to fathom. I can't imagine what cylinders are misfiring in your thought processes.

It's the second time in two weeks that you have done something incredibly foolish and ignorant. You thought you were the only one she told, so somewhere in the nuclear wasteland of your mind a spark flew and you thought "Hey! If I'm the only one she told, I can exploit this for personal gratification! To hell with the confidence she trusted me with! To hell with the idea of not perpetrating such garbage!" Perhaps the credit you have been given for your website has put delusions of grandeur in your head; perhaps they already existed (as in looking in the mirror and thinking "Damn!"). One thing's for sure - you're on par with this third party when it comes to the disastrous judgment she exhibited by trusting you. "A complete breakdown of judgment...some kinda...failure to...y'know...have judgment!"

Props, Braz'! I fully agree with Goulet, Rory, REMOVED, and Mark. :thumb:

No fault or offense to anyone who feels otherwise; we're all entitled.

I agree with Rory, Stu. You may have screwed up a little bit, but from what I have seen in my time here you are a class act and we're all entitled to mistakes here and there.

- lord brazle - 11-30-2004

Am I the only one to think it a weak move to prey on someone's mistakes after they admit they've done wrong? If I am filled with egotist qualities, as you've so passionately remarked, Neil, then what of your self-esteem issues, boiling the rabbit only after it has shot itself? You couldn't catch the rabbit in the field?

The majority of the people posting in this thread (and once again, i thank you all; you didn't have to post anything at all but, because you did, I think even more highly of you) have forgiven so why can't you? Do you think I am really that bad of a guy?

uhhhhhh you obviously don't know what I meant. I do not in any way condone what he did. She trusted him and he broke that trust. He did the same thing to me a while back.

How cool! They think their opinion matters to you!

You're the next Trudeau, Brazle...jeeze.. they love you or they hate you.
I know you didn't want this kind of feedback..but ehre you are. Is there going to be a press conference in the next few hours? Should I tune into CNN?

I did not have sexual relations with that man, REMOVED,...
What do you mean by "is"? Could you define "is" please?

- j-monster - 12-01-2004

This is all craziness.

I think we need to try to forget the whole thing happened.

Brazle... I don't know you, you don't know me... but you seem to be getting hit with both barrels, even after you apologized. Don't worry about it, man. This, too, shall pass...

- j-monster - 12-01-2004

*EDIT*

To those who saw my multiple posts of the same message in this thread... sorry about that... computer hiccup. I think I've fixed the problem now.

- tragicallymike - 12-01-2004

hey it was a stupid thing to post, but he took it down and apologized.....good enough for me.

Sorry, my mistake. Didn't get your meaning, I guess.

Everyone has an opinion on this matter but it doesn't need to go on any further here, I feel it has run its course. If it (this thread)keeps going, I feel that the other thread will just be reincarnated in another form. Let's just let all of this go, period.
