    Going on like you’re interested in philosophy and saying things like “y’all are dumb as fuck”, especially in this context, are incongruous and you really missed a great opportunity to stay quiet.

      Acting like common slang is somehow incongruous with “philosophical” conversation and voicing that opinion is hilariously hypocritical. I urge you to consider what it is about that language that upsets you so much and take some time to work on it. I use common slang mostly because the point is obvious and using big words makes people feel like the speaker thinks they are above everyone they are speaking to. I wrote out that entire long ass sentence instead of saying you sound like a conceited jackass because I know you edge from unnecessarily long phrases.

        Eh? I didn’t have a problem with it being in slang. You could’ve asked if that was the problem and come off looking more honest.
