You started with it "should" be easier to "usually" being easier. Statement of fact to just more than 50%.
You're projecting. I do not believe that saying something is boring indicates anything about it's relative difficulty. That's you.
You're thinking of "would." "Should" just means it's probable. You know, like "usually."
Again, I'm using context and experience to infer your opinion. Naturally it's bound to be biased, it is my experience, but it's the best I can do with nothing but your condescending whinging to go on.
Fair enough, I stand corrected.
Well, hopefully going forward your experience will now help guide you to what should have been obvious the whole time: there was precisely zero context that indicated I thought that.
Lol imagine with starting this whole thing by condescendingly telling the poster that because they find it boring it should be easier...and then turning around and whining that you completely fabricated a strawman because someone else was condescending.
It never cease to amaze me how often other posters see themselves in me, and seem to hate it.
Now that sounds like projection if I've ever heard it. I love myself! You don't suppose anyone ever sees you in you and doesn't like what they see, do you?
Oh, certainly people see me in and me and don't like it. I'm sure even you do. But your post here amounts to nothing more than "I know you are but what am I" and so it's pretty clear you also see yourself and don't like it.
But don't worry, I don't expect you to admit it. Ffs, you even created a strawman and then blame me for you doing it. It's obvious you will go far to protect your ego from admitting fault.
I just answered your questions 🤷♂️ Sorry you didn't like the answers.
At what point did I accuse you of avoiding questions? You doing okay over there?
See, this response, like your others, shows a definite lack of contextual reasoning. You never accused me of avoiding anything and the fact that you think I think you did (apart from being obvious projection) shows you have misunderstood everything I've said on a fundamental level. So again, I'm sorry you don't like the answers to your questions, but I don't have any different answers to give you.
Oh, sorry. I didn't realize you had gone all the way back to the beginning of this and had abandoned the fact that you keep projecting onto me.
It had nothing to do with me not liking your answer, but pointing out the glaring logical flaws of it. But I don't have any different response to logically fallacious arguments.
So the "glaring logical flaw" in me suggesting that Olympic shooting must be easier than whatever other form of competitive shooting op was talking about because it's "boring as hell" was that I was projecting my opinion onto you? Even though you weren't part of the discussion yet? Huh?
No, I explained it to you. But you don't like the explanation. It's like you were warning me.
All you ever said was that I was projecting, which was not a critique of my logic but of my delivery of the explanation of the logic. You haven't actually addressed my point in any of these comments.
Incorrect. Feel free to go back to the beginning, which you've already done, and reread my dismantling of your garbage logic.
You just ignored it and started whining about how your strawmen and projection was actually my fault.
All you did was misunderstand the word "should" and then cry "projection,' neither of which addressed my actual argument in the slightest.
Incorrect. I admitted I was wrong here and made another argument. However, in your previous post you said "all I did" was say that you were projecting. Now "all I've done" is something completely different. Maybe you should stop trying to cherry pick parts of my argument as "all I did" and address my actual points.
Make a point and I'll address it.
