    Dude, you don’t even know the difference between a decision and a question.

    And, just for fun.

    The sky is transparent

    Chicago is in Kwekwe

    Palm trees are a grass.

      Look buddy, if you want to make an argument that my joke I made is a false dilemma… by all means go ahead, the person before you already pushed that point with logic. I disagreed but at least that’s a conversation.

      You dropped a Wikipedia link and bounced.

      Then you respond just now with answers to my 2 choice questions ENTIRELY WRONG and the sad part is you looked up answers and still got them wrong while missing I specifically picked 2 that I thought were funny. The sky is translucent not blue. Palm trees aren’t trees.

      It’s like every step you take is another pit-fall while you argue against my jokes. Get it together dude.

        You started all this with a false binary argument. It is a low hand way of forcing your opinion on someone and I linked to Wikipedia because everyone should be able to spot it.

        I’m carrying on the conversation because it’s hilarious how bad you are at arguing. You try to give examples of binary decisions and end up asking questions that are ambiguous. I’m dying to see what comes next.

          I started this conversation with a sarcastic illustrative point to illuminate my view point. I very directly didn’t not ask anyone else to chose ANYTHING.

          I said essentially “I see this, I choose that”

          Which is my opinions illustrated thru over simplification.

          That’s not me forcing anyone into a bottleneck.

          A rhetorical question I asked only myself. I guess you could say I’m entertaining a FD myself, maybe. You can’t say I’m throttling your ability to choose things. I didn’t ask you anything, I didn’t present you with any options.

          I’m myself am not “dying to see” what comes next. I replied to you because I’m bored and I’m right. That’s all.

          It is funny to me you can’t see how clearly wrong you are on things. Do you want a YouTube video explaining the differences between transparent, translucent, and opaque? There are many available. Just let me know.

            I said essentially “I see this, I choose that”

            You gave only 2 options to chose from which falsely represented the situation.

            I succinctly pointed this out. You got angry and are now suffering from Logorrhea.

              1. I gave two options to myself then answered. I never asked you anything.

              2. lol I’m not angry at all just bored. Thank you for the complement though. Yes I’m a salesman and a damn good one. I’ve never had someone describe me as Loquacious, but it’s a rarely used word. I knew it though if that was a test.

              Anyway you are clearly balls deep in your histrionics… or maybe you just suffer from HPD in general…

                1. I gave two options to myself then answered. I never asked you anything.

                Yes. This is exactly what a false binary is. You presented a situation where more than 2 possibilities exist to put forward a false narrative.

                1. I’ve never had someone describe me as Loquacious,

                You still haven’t. I’m implying you have written Diarrhea.

      The sky isn’t transparent it’s translucent giving it a blue color. Revisit the dictionary.

      Chicago is in America. There is also other chicagos in other places but YES Chicago is in America much like Paris is in France and another one is in Texas.

      Palm trees aren’t grass. They are closer to grass than a tree. They aren’t trees.

      Dictionary. Buy one.

        • Wait until night. Is the sky blue?

        • You can be in chicago and not in America.

        • Apart from their size, palm trees are nothing like trees.

        • These questions have absolutely no relationship with the topic of false dilemmas.

          1. yes. Now it’s dark blue. The sky isn’t transparent. It isn’t clear. It’s translucent which scatters light and blurs it.

          2. that wasn’t the question. Is Chicago in America? Yes. Are there Chicago’s not in America ? Also yes.

          3. so the answer would be “false” they are not trees. They arent technically grass either just closer to grass. The answer remains the same. Palm trees aren’t trees.

          4. do you really doubt I can give hundreds more direct examples.

          You have exactly 2 options. You have a decision to make. You can keep chatting with me or stop chatting with me. Choose. Option a or option b.

              Dude… I buy the new versions of both Websters and Oxford dictionary every time the release a new version lol. I do both in case I’m arguing with someone from London about the word “evening”.

              I’m profoundly boring. However like you said I’m very good at talking so it doesn’t sound so bad.

              My point is I don’t need to look at Wikipedia or look anything up. I know what it means in America and in the UK. I know the slight deference between the us and uk definitions.

              I’m not a bad ass, but if you want to argue semantics… boy you’re going to lose fast. You can’t be. I might be wrong about my opinions but I know the limits of the word.

              At best you can say I offered myself a false situation, but again it was illustrative not literal.
