Long ago and far away, someone posted a list here of 10 (I think it was 10) ways to always win a debate or something along those lines.

One of the things I know was on the list was "That sounds like something Hitler would say." I think another was "Are you offending my religion." though I'm not sure.

Does anyone know where this is and/or re-post it? I want to show it to a few people at school.

IMPORTANT NOTICE PLEASE READ

Employees dying on the job are faling to fall down. THIS PRACTICE MUST STOP as it becmes impossible to distinguish between death and the natural movement of he staf.

Any employee found dead in an upright position will be dropped from the payroll.

Those are idiotic reasons for a debate to end.

Basically you just touch on a sensetive topic and hope the guy is too big of a wimp to continue.

I'm sorry, I just consider that a very low-level debate skill.

One easy way to win a debate:

Kill your opponent.

If by chance you still loose, you really suck at debating and should find a better hobby.

Subliminal messages are important components of a persuasive argument. Why? Because subliminal messages cannot be argued against. If your opponent doesn't know you are suggesting things to his subconscious mind, what possible rebuttal can he have? Convey subliminal messages by whispering under your breath quietly enough so that your opponent does not consciously hear.

* Opponent: "I'm afraid you'll have to come with me."
* You: "These aren't the droids you're looking for."

BobTheMasher's Quick And Easy Ways To Always Be Right:

1. "Yeah, but still." Context: Opponent utterly decimates your argument with logic and facts.

2. "But it would be awesome." Context: Opponent utterly decimates the practicality of your suggestion.

Example:

"Dude, we should tape giant wooden wings onto our cars and drive them off of a cliff. To see who goes farther."
"That's retarded. Neither of us has a car."
"But it'd be awesome."
"....well, even if we did, there's no way wooden wings would hold up a car."
"Yeah, but still."
"Okay, I guess you're ALWAYS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING. Let's do it."
"Yeah."

WOOSH.

Wooden wings, eh? That'll give me something to do tomorrow.

Hey phoenix

I remember posting this - http://forums.massassi.net/html/Forum1/HTML/029925.html

Also note that I quoted from an anonymous source. The real writer is probably easy to find though.

Have fun with it...

It's a joke. They're not to be taken seriously.

Apples are red and odd shapped, oranges are orange and round. Apples can also be yellow and green (maybe something else?). Apples have smooth skin while oranges have the skin of Morpheous, full of pits.

Checksum: I thought about it, I guess I'm striving for my own personal ideals. I'll just project those ideals onto Jesus and say "I'm trying to be like Jesus" so that I won't have to listen to you banter endlessly about me worshipping a false god or some such.
