You SAY you don't like spam, but look what you're doing...you're hijacking your own thread, for Pete's sake!

Hotfoot, I can't believe you wasted three pages mocking Verilon just because he doesn't know much about guns.

Ignorance is still ignorance even if it comes to guns.

I've never handled a revolver nor a pistol, yet I know the difference.
Even if you'd only read a two bit criminal novel you should know this.

I'm not ignorant...I just don't know anything about guns...

You're not ignorant, but you are ignorant on the topic of guns.

In the same way, I am not ignorant, but am ignorant on the topic of physics. And chemistry. And biology. And ... oh never mind.

Iam not ignorant of the topic...I just happened to have a lack of access to knowledge-bringing thingies (sleep dep is NOT good for you...). I never said I didn't take an interest in guns....I do, I just don't have access.

Not knowing something about a topic that is general knowledge makes you ignorant of that topic.

I'm not calling you an ignorant person. I'm simply pointing out that ignorance is still ignorance regardless of topic.
And you are ignorant when it comes to weapons.

And "I don't have access" doesn't cut it.
I've never seen a revolver in my whole life and the only pistol I've ever seen up close was in the hands of a police officer, yet I know the difference. You pick it up along the way.

Verilon... go to www.google.com and type in semi-auto pistol or revolver, if you can get to SD.net, you can become a gun expert in under an hour... the greatness of the internet.

Ah, not so. I wasn't mocking Verilon because he didn't know much about guns. That I dropped almost immediately. It was his lack of knowledge of all things Monty Python that carried on the running gag.

So I never got to enjoy the pleasures of MP...other than the Holy Grail thru the Frenchmen throwing farm animals at Arthur and various snippets of the TV show. SO I have a social life. Your problem lies where?

BTW, Mods, if you can, Split this thread to HoS...it has no use in the OSF forum.

How does it make me ignorant? Ignorant is when you *refuse* to look at what evidence and facts there might be....Lack of knowledge is self-explanatory.

And you missed the "Run away" bit? *shrugs* Ah well.

As for the social life, please, don't even try that. You can't even begin to compare my social life to yours, and even if you did know me personally, it's subjective anyway. Do you honestly think for a moment that I don't have a social life? That my social life is not as valid or fulfilling as yours? How do you explain the fact that you were up and posting about this even longer than I was?

Now I've already explained myself, and you've already explained yourself, what's the point of continuing this further?

BTW, Mods, if you can, Split this thread to HoS...it has no use in the OSF forum.

What is with your obsession to the HoS? I mean, seriously. If it's over, just let it die the death of anominity by falling to the second page. Bringing it to the Hall of Shame only prolongs its life.

Actually, ignorance is simply lack of knowledge. Willful ignorance is when you refuse to look at what evidence and facts there might be. There's no shame in being ignorant of a subject. Note that he said you were ignorant of a subject, NOT as a person. There is a very crucial distinction made there.

Point taken. And firearms, not necesarily weaponry, in this case. But I do happen to be oblivious (yet interested) in most weaponry.

Faves: Quarter staff and spear. Would LOVE to learn how to use them...

Yeah, but at this point, I'd say it's either just worth making a new topic if you want to continue the discussion, or just letting it fall into obscurity.
