We were discussing continuation betting: You're value betting a J-J-4 flop hoping to get called by what exactly?
I went into great detail about how little value there is in the 3-bet, considering that 76s has a very small equity disadvantage to AQs. The equity advantage is irrelevant, if you 3-bet and don't want to play large pots.
But more importantly just because you see someone 4-bet a particular hand once, doesn't mean that that's the entirety of their 4-bet range.
Once a 4-bet bluff gets called, isn't it possible that the next 4-bet isn't a bluff?
Just because you're slightly ahead of someone's betting range, and AQs is slightly ahead of 87s, doesn't mean that the best play is to raise. That's a really fishy thought.
People seem to be absolutely phobic about calling with what is likely the best hand. That's very often the best play, even if you're willing to play a monster pot.

Just random words. We could easily be behind, or flipping against the Villain's range.
Half the time he's 4-bet he did it with AA, which leads you to believe that he's very intelligently polarized in his 4-betting range.
