      Eh, that’s just any article these days. The article itself is actually pretty interesting. I have definitely seen/heard people ise these argument techniques before but mever knew they had names.

        Well it was mostly humoristic comment. Couldn’t help myself with the picture perfect “10 things you need to know” template. Since as every knows, one should comment without reading the article. That is what all the cool kids do these days.

        Hmmm… I shall go now read it, since you said it is interesting read.

        Edit: you were right, it was interesting read. Shall press that up arrow there.
