That's a stronger argument than "Nuh-uh." Goodbye children, I have shit to do.

It really isn't. You're probably lying about your experience. There's a lot of us out here.

Strunk & White, motherfucker. And accusing someone of lying, and thinking that wins your argument, is the last gasp of a loser.
