    Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

          What about the Hit and Run doctrine: this person doesn't actually debate, they just start a thread on some inflammatory topic and then watch the fireworks.

              I think Boddingtons would be a classic user of that style

              Oh, and MRT

                    I understand every word of it... I don't think it's negative to attribute that style of debate to Boddingtons. And he does do it.

                    Edited by Ming thanks to DaShi point out that my phrasing wasn't what I intended

                                Aptly named, this doctrine results in a pile of Sh*t posts, thence the term "dogpile" is all too apt.
