I'm just saying one can't agree about something more than 100%. It's either 100% or something less than that. But Trump thinks 500% off of $100 is $20 so you guys have similar math strategies, hence the comment.

so acting like this was some completely neutral and reasonable observation divorced from context is a little hard to take seriously.

Bring housenuts back and let everyone call him the r word. It’s the only fair solution.

those are not remotely the same category of thing - if you stopped being so tribalistic, you'd be able to see that yourself

Anyone who says "aughts" should be taken behind the barn and shot. Same with "noughties".

Okay, but there’s got to be a term for 2000-2009. Saying “00s” out loud sounds stupid. Aughts is fine.

I'm pretty sure you have claimed that Rick is a Trump supporter.

I can try to find the receipts if you want.

(I could be wrong and am confusing you with someone else.)

You’d think it would work, but it doesn’t.

If you mean “provides statistical data that shows” for “jj says” to counter the made up number you provided while trying to make a political point, then yes, moron. But go ahead, keep believing you are persecuted for your right wing status instead of your dishonesty and general stupidity. I am sure Ricky will let you cry on his shoulder.

rick obviously was saying 1000% as an expression of emphasis. If you can find an example of rick criticizing you for not knowing math in a case where you used "1000%" in the same way he did, then fair play to you. Otherwise, this seems dumb.

Sure. I understood you were joking. But given the context, it just wasn't a very effective dig imo. In any case, my previous comment was directed at your allegation of hpocrisy.

It was 90% dig at Trump and 10% dig at rick for sounding like a schoolgirl by using 1000%. What allegation of hypocrisy?
