Falkland Islanders to hold referendum over sovereignty

[Tupac Shakur]

And I'm not really surprised you think your dos centavos trolling is worth any actual serious response.

So you've finally admitted that your responses in this thread have been unserious. We all knew that already, of course, but it's good to have it confirmed.

I ain't kissin' on Drake no matter how much makeup he wears.

:vomit:

[MrFun]

I just want to see you two kiss and make up.

And I'm not really surprised you think your dos centavos trolling is worth any actual serious response. If I'm going to dig through my zotero archive and/or 2000 reference books on various and sundry subjects in my own library, I won't do that here, I'll actually do some paying work. I don't believe in expending effort without reward, especially when dealing with an overgrown high school tool on a forum.

[Tupac Shakur]

I'm really not surprised that you're claiming to be educated on this subject while not providing any citations to the literature you claim backs up your viewpoint. Typical behavior for a sad internet know-it-all.

[MichaeltheGreat]

Yes, I "cherry-picked pseudoexperts" by linking to a Wikipedia summary of academic views on the subject whilst not singling out any particular expert's views as more valid than any other.

You, on the other hand, just pulled a figure out of your ass and are trying to bluff us into believing that your viewpoint is valid even after its been shown that your position is out of step with the range of viewpoints provided by real academic experts. Much more admirable.

You like to spin so much - did your Brit headmasters have you do the sit and spin trick in their laps when you were a wee lad? Believe it or not, there are actually more than five or so papers on the subject. And the figure I "pulled out of my ass" oh so coincidentally happens to be the lower range estimates in the academic liturature that wikipedia cited for you. All you can do is parrot someone else's summary of a cited link. Have you even read the ****ing papers? No, didn't think so. Actual reading other than wikipedia is too much of a challenge, since you've spent your whole life with your head so far up your ass that what passes for your brain is oxygen deprived. And yes, Dobyns is a pseudoexpert.

It's good to see you supporting a genocide denier. That's very liberal of you.

I was just making an observation.

[Tupac Shakur]

Not in the slightest. From Roman times up until the 10th century, it was usually the Irish coming across on slaving raids, or colonial invasions. That's where the Scots came from.

It wasn't until Edward the Elder's time and onwards that England got too powerful for that.

Interesting.

[Tupac Shakur]

Dang, MTG. Drake might get red marks on his ass from you slapping him so hard and too many times.

It's good to see you supporting a genocide denier. That's very liberal of you.

[Tupac Shakur]

Well, I guess that settles it. The views of a small subset that I cherry-picked of pseudoexperts in this field are the only thing that is relevant because I can't research any further than a wikipedia article.

Fixed.

You Wiki'd that.

I actually learned it from the same place I get all my historical knowledge, Cracked.com.

Yes, their lessons have always had a "special place" in his memoriess. He found it a very touching experience, indeed.

[kentonio]

It reminds him of the British men who used to educate him in his formulative years.

[MichaeltheGreat]

He likes it that way.
