Evolution - a very bad joke...

I guess that's easier than trying to communicate. You have a problem with something I'm doing. Tell me what it is.

I don't really have a definition....but I'll proffer a guess:
"Accuracy"
- A measure of how closely an understanding describes reality. Eg, I use a word, intending to convey a particular meaning to my audience.
- A measure of how closely a result matches an intent. Eg, target shooting, machining metal to tolerances

I like it

You really need to stop editing your posts every time, but yes, I agree with this.

I prefer laser sights.

That's cuz you're young. Scopes are better.
For self defense, iron sights are best because they're adequate & are less scary to a jury....if it ever comes to that.

You know better than to ask that.

Considering the fact that I don't know kung fu and since retiring from dancing I don't have the upper body strength I used to, I better stick to distance and laser sights :yes:

Yea guns usually work better. Heh.

It's not about strength, its how you apply it. Thats a Bruce Lee thing right there .

I don't have a problem with anything your doing, I just find your conversation with Revoltingnest amusing.

It is interesting.

Sadly I do. I figure if I keep asking enough, maybe it'll make a dent, though. )(

So, that's a "no", then? Why is it so hard to just explain what that completely irrelevant question has to do with anything?

So many words....no answers.
Hint: It's really easy to answer...obvious even. But timid people don't venture an answer unless they're sure there's no trick.
So if I hint at a trick, it scares'm off. A courageous person would answer, knowing full well that he 's the same person before
answering as he is after, so there's no reason to fear being wrong. Ask yourself why I asked 2 questions which appear to have
identical answers? Is it to make you suspect that they're different, so you'll fold in the face of my bluff...or is there a difference?
Is there some important point about perception? Is it about knowledge of weights, measures & materials?

I've heard that defeat tastes like shame & cheese....but with less cheese.
What say you?

I know. It's hard to expect a simple thing of you like explaining the point behind a completely random and irrelevant "quiz". I'm sorry I tried. I just want to throw a few more words in here, so that you'll respond to this without seeing the full quote. The worst part about your editing is that you don't even point it out. What would be better is to leave the text alone and add "EDIT:" at the bottom of the post with the new information. The offer still stands, though. If you feel like trying to have a real discussion, all you have to do is explain one little thing, and I'll answer you.

Unguard!

Prepare to taste extra cheese!(specifically mozerella (or however the hell you spell it)).

I prefer Parmesan & Feta.....at 50 paces.

Answer the question of how this is relevant to anything we've talked about, and I'll answer.

None weigh more than the other, obviously, since they have the same unit of weight of each material.

Congrats on being more of a man than some.....er....I mean that in a good way.
We will discuss this when at least one other poster mans up.

Still avoiding the question, huh? Surprise, surprise. The funny part is you not manning up, and then trying to call me out for "not manning up". Too funny, man.

 

[Magic Man]

And just to be clear, I wouldn't be surprised if MM was more of a man than I am.

I'm sure it's in your nature to do everything well.

Since you're the only brave soul, it would be unfair to give public results, so I'll PM you.
