I have to admit, Talya could've drawn this cartoon:
 
 
(sigh) I am guilty. The old "talk show host" Adam sadly has no other outlet for good, honest, stimulating debate except for out-of-control Facebook threads. I love debating on 610 WTVN. I usually knew both sides so well, that I could always see ahead of the other person's point and catch 'em before they got there. The art of debate is something I value. It's subtle and in the online world? Grammar is king. Yes, sometimes you can use grammar as a cop-out if you have no other argument (pointing out a typo when you have no other point) but just as debating on radio required a grasp of the language and communicating effectively, the internet is no different. And usually, it's advantageous online because you don't have to contend with accents or other descriptors clouding your judgements. It's free of tone so you have to be clear. As I've said many times before, it's pristine.
 
The debate I'm about to present to you however is none of those things. It's so remarkable that it's getting an entry. It's ignorance with so much attitude you have no choice but to fight back even though it's soooooooooo clear it's like outrunning an infant. And everytime I think I'm gonna just back off, she gets even shittier. So, enjoy...
 
 
An age old sports debate that most long-time NBA fans agree with me on: LeBron was not only a little bitch to leave the WAY he did... but to join a guy who already had a ring? Took him out of the Jordan debate FOREVER... and believe me, he's talented enough to be better than Jordan - he just doesn't have the head for it. So we start...
 
 
I should've stopped here. This isn't gonna be based in reality if she's already bringing up the "Slave" line.
 
 
Granted, I'm being mean here. But I gave several normal, nice, sane responses to no avail. I decided to get back to the topic at hand which is far fresher than the tired LeBron debate...
 
 
HA. This is where I should've just let this go. I know. But goddamn, how often do you see this type of ignorance? Throw in the attitude? Sheeeeit. Luckily someone responded to the original topic:
 
 
Wasting my time here, I know. Amazingly - it gets better...
 
 
First off, the "Adem" line is meeeeeeeeeean. And borderline racist. LOL. But to a comedian, how can you not point out that someone who was named "Sebrena" instead of "Sabrina" doesn't know how to SPELL? It's sooooooooo hard to let that one go. And to be so stupid as to not even GOOGLE Pau's name before making fun of me for not calling him Paul? What? It finally ends after that...
 
 
Jesus. I just... wow. Kids? Anyone out there under the age of 18? Learn how to read and write. Learn how to avoid "textspeak" 2 fit ur 140 characters. Because if you can write coherent sentences? You'll be so far ahead of the rest of the world you will soar...
 
...actually just the rest of this country. The rest of the world is light-years ahead of us when it comes to education, so good luck with that. Oh and since this entry defies any sort of entertaining video, here's me at 14, juggling.
 
 
Ha. This feels like a "That SQUIRREL can WATER SKI" type of moment. LOL. So completely off-topic. That's the problem with video blogs sometimes. Ya gotta have a video. I guess in a sense I was juggling her stupidity. I swear, it takes more effort to process stupidity than to process good arguments that you disagree with. GOD I MISS REAL DEBATES.
