If only you did, too...
-
And making up shit for the other side is what brent calls an "argument".
-
Well, it wouldn't be a brent post if he doesn't make up the argument of the other side, wouldn't it?
-
Too bad Rhys is probably on a 30-day time out because he was wrong, again. But worry not, he'll be back in a few days with new predictions of Russian success!
-
Just curious - do you find it similarly outrageous how Christians are expected to accept guilt for a fictional fruit being eaten 6000 years ago by a person you never met, and responsibility for the crucifixion of some guy by Romans 2000 years ago? Or is that totally different?
-
Not very well motivated? So they want to roll over and let the russians rule over them?
-
Oh look, there's an argument. Ever get tired of lying?
-
And you still love to set up strawmen arguments. You can't make up people's arguments just because you don't understand statistics...
-
The laughing emoji is appropriate, given how long he took to get it
-
Like your multiple 'red wave' predictions?
-
But nobody said a mass shooting would surely result. So, you're just making stuff up.
-
Brent has to rely on things nobody says in this forum to argue against. He'd lose otherwise.
-
Sorry that happened to you. But it's not your fault for not being armed and vigilant 24/7. It's the failure of your community for allowing the root causes of the attack to happen.
-
You should also have a similar setup in the bathroom so the bad guys can't get you while you're in the shower.
-
Considering how often he uses brain-dead "gotchas", "checkmates" and fishing metaphors, he bit into that one pretty hard and you were replying to kallend (who was replying to jakee...)
-
Wouldn't this kill the argument that guns can be used for self defence? "Good guys with a gun" will lose a lot of time trying to open a safe...
-
In the talking altimeter market yes there's not much competition. I'm sure more will appear eventually. But for altimeters in general, competition has improved a lot compared to, say, 2014 when it was practically just 2 companies.
-
That's rich. Your "predictions" are just guesses, which is why you don't put numbers in. The NOAA puts a lot of numbers into their work, which they then write in simpler terms for people in their press releases. You're just doing a useless job of "re-translating" their press releases to fit your agenda. As if you understood the numbers behind it
-
Of course you'll succeed, it's all about lying to yourself. Then believing it. It's all about quoting the NOAA and ignoring the first sentence in their annual summary news article, and ignoring their official position regarding climate change. It's all about arguing with that lib in your head, and winning.
-
Good effort, but unfortunately Brent's "predictions" relies on being vague. You're not going to get numbers out of him.
-
It's the only way he "wins", really, to create a caricature liberal in his head that he can argue against. Like how he "predicts" that emissions will continue to rise in 2023. Literally NOBODY is predicting otherwise, so why make that "prediction"? So he can "win", he can't really win otherwise.
-
Why Arctic sea ice? As your friend Slim King recently found out, if floating sea ice melts it doesn't change the sea level at all. Blew his mind! In the Antarctic, ice melted to near-record lows. Nice how you cherry-picked the Arctic. 6th warmest while having a La Nina is actually a record, so you're already quite wrong on 2022. But the La Nina is now gone, so let's check back on this next year. This is the most brain-dead "prediction" of all. "I predict the sun will rise tomorrow, checkmate!" You need to stop arguing with that lib in your head.
-
You didn't make the "top five" prediction. It wasn't yours to begin with, so stop claiming checkmate. Your prediction was, "No record warming". That's it.
-
Actually Brent's prediction was "no record warming", not hitting the top 5 - he can't make predictions that specific. He only added that when the NOAA said it was unlikely due to the La Nina. Still, NASA and Copernicus ranked it 5th warmest, and NOAA 6th, which is pretty damn hot for a La Nina year. Also, don't ask Brent what's the official NOAA stance on climate change. He'll suddenly need to watch the football or something.

According to NASA, "A separate, independent analysis by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) concluded that the global surface temperature for 2022 was the sixth highest...NOAA scientists use much of the same raw temperature data in their analysis and have a different baseline period (1901-2000) and methodology. Although rankings for specific years can differ slightly between the records, they are in broad agreement and both reflect ongoing long-term warming." https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-says-2022-fifth-warmest-year-on-record-warming-trend-continues So no, you're not.
