I'm lazy and intoxicated. Recap of pages four to now, please.
Same as the first three, really.
you didn't respond to my last post, so

unless you seriously want to conflate caring to read about a subject
with caring about the subject

their logic:

if you care to click on the topic
read it in full
and then respond with disinterest in the topic

then that actually means that you are interested in the topic
because you were interested enough to respond

my logic:

that's fucking stupid

that's idiotic too

i wouldn't disregard ANYONE'S argument if they were being hostile

that's irrelevant to the argument that they're making

Verby, people don't make 6 page threads to tell people all about how much they don't care.
good thing that's not what the thread is about, then
if you think so, you're stupid

the thread isn't about "how much i don't care"
the thread is about the nature of posting "i don't care" in a thread that someone genuinely doesn't care about

all i'm doing is making the following argument:
it is possible to post in a thread even if you don't care about the subject

your argument is that it is impossible to post in a thread if you don't care about the subject

i'm saying
that's brain-dead retarded, and you're wrong

that's not "making a thread about how much i don't care"

caring to make a thread about the subject of caring =/= caring about someone's day

sorry, you lose

When you exert the extra energy
yes

exerting the energy to let people KNOW that i don't care about his day

i cared to read it
i cared to post in it
but i don't care about the day itself

this is so easy to understand, anyone who disagrees with me is most certainly an idiot

Hey Verby. You want a custom nameplate?
<_<

i'd rather make one myself, thank you
I don't think I'm the one that's delusional. Sorry.

care about what
what the fuck are you even talking about

so because there are idiots who misconstrue what i mean when i say "i don't care about what you did today"
that means i actually do care about the person's day?

really?

okay, fine, be delusional

But you just said you didn't care about their day.
I don't. Caring to read about their day is different than caring about their day.

On the Internet, you can't determine whether you care about someone's day or not unless you read about it first. You can't. Do it.

If you don't even care to READ about their day, that's a completely different matter.

...By reading the title of the thread? I thought that would be obvious.
wow

Maybe something REALLY AWESOME and RELEVANT TO MY INTERESTS happened on this person's day.
And I would never know until I read it first.

Holy fucking shit, dude.

No, you idiot, i'm saying that you obviously cared about the thread enough to click on it and respond. Not that you cared about the thread material. There is a huge difference
So why the FUCK would you point that out!?

The Flood / Re: (☠) &quot;you cared enough to respond&quot;
« on: January 15, 2015, 07:59:18 PM »
Like, why did you click on it at all then?
How am I supposed to know if I don't care about it until I read it.

Caring to read a post is completely fucking different too.
Can you not figure THAT out, EITHER?

I was saying you cared about the thread, not necessarily his day (which isn't the thread anyways, it was the Uncharted thread).
the uncharted thread is a very poor example of what i'm talking about, because it was extremely clear what i was trying to say--i don't give a fuck about frames-per-second

if you think i care about frames-per-second just because i responded to a thread about it, you are literally braindead

so i came up with a better example

and yes, you ARE saying that i apparently care about his day just because i responded with "i don't care"

Then would you care to elaborate on your mysterious, personalised meaning of the word?
i shouldn't have to
it should be obvious
and i've explained it a million times already

someone makes a topic talking about their day
i don't give a FUCK about how this person's day went

i don't find it interesting at all, and if anything, letting this person know that i don't care just might influence them to stop posting
so i say, "i don't care about how your day went, dude"

so let's check what i care about here

[X] i care to respond
[X] i care about whether he continues to update us about his day
[] i care about his day

you're trying to say that i care about his day

why
that's stupid

"I totally don't care! In fact, I have to let everyone know that I don't care! It's mandatory that I remind them that I don't care at all about their thread that I'm replying in right now! And if anybody responds I'll tell them again about how I couldn't possibly care less! That'll show 'em!"
...if someone honestly said that to me, i would say, "wow, okay, i'm sorry to hear that"

i would be convinced

granted, i probably would've thought to myself, "if that guy just said 'i don't care' and left, that probably would've worked just as well"

but thinking that he cares just because he posted is cunt-level stupidity

Tell that to him, I use a definition, a fact-and he tries to dispute it.
because i'm not using the fucking words in same way that you're using them

you seem to think "care" means "think about"

which is fucking retarded, and not the way i'm using the word

Again you seem to be choosing your own definitions to suit your argument. This just shows how pathetic your case is and why everyone has disagreed
nope, not everyone

and refer to baha's excellent post on the nature of definitions

you seem to suck webster's cock and act like the dictionary is law

You did make a contribution. One post and a whole thread
neither of which count as contributions because they do not expand on the topic

Verb isn't angry, he's typing like a plebeian.
no no, it's because i'm saying "fuck" a lot
that means i'm angry, duh

bottom line, if i actually cared, i would've actually made a contribution

In other words, you cared about what they wrote.
then you have one fucked up definition of the word "care"

and you're also wrong

i can't place my brain inside of your skull to prove to you that there's nothing in my mind that says "wow, i really care about this person's day, i'm glad he posted this thread, and i'm going to offer some input here"

i can't prove that

all i can do is tell you

if someone else posts "i don't care" in my thread, do you think that i think they care? no, i don't
because i'm not fucking retarded

if someone doesn't post in the thread, that either means two things
1. they read the thread, cared, but didn't want to respond for one reason or another
2. they didn't care about the thread, and also didn't care enough to respond (notice how they're two different things)

so the people who didn't respond are in this grey area
they either care, or don't care

me, personally, i don't even want the possibility of me caring to cross the mind of ANYONE
so i post "i don't care" to let people know that i don't care

because all i care about is letting people know that i don't care about what the OP is talking about

because if i did care, don't you think i would've added something to the discussion?
the fact that i didn't should tell you enough that i didn't care

this is 2+2=4 logic

I'd tell you I don't have an opinion on whatever you asked me about.
