A lot of exaggeration, wishful thinking, assuming the worst.

I don't recall strutting around assuring posters that LemonJello had been trounced by my arguments.

Settle it.

Produce the post you are talking about. Otherwise, we have seen how your memory works.
If people think I am lying about you, so be it.

I have asked FMF to produce this post where I bragged that LemonJello was so badly refutted by me.
Well, I am not going to go looking. If there are people here who think a story about you bragging vainly about how you'd run rings around another poster is untrue, I can live with that.

Now FMF is slick. Watch him. He may subtly refine and refine the original charge. This is his sneaky backpedaling. He may refine his accusation until he can produce something that seems somewhat appropriate.
You boasted that you had run rings around him when you'd supposedly demonstrated that, according to his philosophical beliefs, he couldn't tell the difference between a cockroach and a human being.

You reckoned you'd had him dancing around. You'd had him stumped. You'd dismantled his arguments. And you did this when he'd not been around for so long that it seemed as if he'd left the site.


@FMF

That is a wreckless excuse for doing so.

But you just may produce the post and prove you're not.
I have challenged you to do so.

I do not recall ever boasting about debating him so terribly devastating to him. Doesn't ring any bells.

I have a much sharper memory than you do. I have no need to go looking for a quote.

If there are people who can't imagine you boasting - in his absence - about you supposedly winning a debate about cockroaches and humans with LemonJello - then those people will just think I'm mistaken or malignant, and that's OK by me.

TWhitehead was also in former times a formidable debater, though perhaps not to the thread mentioned in the OP.
He was tenacious.

Thirdly, sonship might claim he was PROVOKED into boasting, in LemonJello's absence, that he had run rings around him on the difference between cockroaches and humans.
