Buddy, you are arguing by proxy with the dictionary, which is a descriptivist text. Go yell at Merriam-Webster.

Your understanding of the word is not standard.

You could simply read the linked text yourself. This is worse than asking someone to google something for you.

Is it missing that fact? It would be a pretty glaring flaw in the co-star trajectory modeling.

> The former Starbucks CEO is a classic example. His infamous interview with Cramer on CNBC is the textbook of what it looks like when some McKinsey consultant gets actually put in charge. It was a total shitshow.

Do you have a link to the specific interview you mention? Google seemingly doesn't know of an infamous one.

I want to be very clear here because the implications are extremely funny: Do you not consider sending a letter to be an interaction??

You joke, but this happened to my cousin.

> Like, I get the point you're trying to make, but I hope you're aware it's a non-sequitur in context?

Your hope should have been that amelius was not aware that it's a non-sequitur, because that is correctable. But then they kept posting and removed all doubt.

> How much more hostile do you want to be?

There is no limit. The request is not coming from genuine curiosity — they are asking for a stricter definition so that they can attack any one that you provide, no matter how sensible. The befuddlement is deliberate.

I enjoy hackernud3s's contributions and am glad that they are listening to the silent upvotes instead of whatever the fuck it is that you're on about.

You tipped your hand by calling the metaphor silly immediately before admitting that you are confused by it.

Pretty unfair of you to conflate a movement's stated goals with its behavior when the comment that you are replying to is very obviously talking about the latter. So rationalist!

Yes, you are getting it.

You misread a comment so badly that you ended up responding to a completely different and made up comment. Your unwillingness to admit that you were wrong is way worse than whatever reflex you are ranting about.

Buddy, you are naming the things that changed.
