Why I believe in Talking Snake

Do you also enjoy dodging questions and pretending to have answered them before? What is up with that?

Why are you asking me this again? You already know what my answer is.

Case in point. Unless of course you can quote me previously where I asked you this question which we both know you can't. Seriously dude, what is wrong with you?

But I don't have to prove anything to you or to anyone else by quoting anyone - not you, not me. Once I've told you I am not interested in answering your question for the specific reason I give - whether you agree with that reason or not ~ that should be the end of that. Just say you think I am lying and then move on to something new. But you just ignore what I have said, the reason I have given, and ask the question again. And again. And again. I came to the conclusion it's a gimmick. Like now, for example. Here you are doing it again.

You just got through saying you’re “pretty much done” with me and here you are less than an hour later. You just can’t quit me.

Your own medicine.

Edit: BTW, I dig the new avatar.

So then, you admit - it seems - to hearing this - my stance - before, so often in fact, that you reply with a yawn symbol. So you now know what my stance is. And you are conceding that you have heard it before, to the point it bores you. So why did you ask me about it again? Anyway. We are making progress. You will note that every time you have said to me that you decline to answer a question because you feel you have already answered it, and don't feel the need to repeat your answer, I have accepted this and moved on. You should quite simply return the common courtesy.

The yawn symbol is for your trolling. Obviously you don't have to prove anything if you're just trolling.

If I decline to answer a question of yours because I believe that you have asked me before and I believe you are just ignoring the previous answer, then the question is declined. And I don't have to prove anything. That's that.

You asked a question - I perceived it to be the gimmick I've told you about [you can disagree all you want] - and you did not get me to answer it. And so that's that.

There is no onus on me to prove anything. Just as, when you have said the same thing to me about one of my questions, I have never asked you to prove to me that you did, in fact, answer it. I asked a question. You declined, saying your stance had not changed. I accepted that. And we moved on.

I’m not prickly or defensive at all. I just think it’s hilarious that less than an hour after you tried to break up with me, you’re strumming a guitar and singing outside my window.

If you are trolling there is no onus on you to prove anything because you obviously can't.

You could write a 1,000-word post about a dust ball.

You can call it trolling if you want. But if I decline to answer a question, and give you my reason, regardless of whether or not you are satisfied with that reason, the question is declined. And you know why. There is no onus on me to prove anything with regard to my reason for declining to answer, regardless of whether the exchange is trolling or not trolling.
