    I’m not convinced you’d recognize yourself in a mirror.

    You’re aggressively dismissive of cocksure predictions… which you’re doing, and I’m not.

    You’re incensed by language making disagreement personal… which you used, and I only turned around.

    You think “I don’t know” is damning failure, but “you don’t either” is somehow contradictory.

    You are the one certain of what’s going to happen.

    That is somehow not the most absurd part of this conversation.

      Now you’re resorting to personal attacks and “I know you are but what am I?” along with more contradictions without a hint of irony.

      Do you often find this approach successful when the bloviating and juvenile attempts at intimidation don’t work?

          Yeah, you’re not going to find much success with that here, either.

            Success is impossible. You’re not listening to yourself and you don’t care what words mean.

            Meanwhile, keep an eye on this rapidly-changing technology, and try not to act surprised if your absolute certainty turns out to be misplaced.

              I listened to and was unconvinced by your rambling, insults, and tantrum.

              Like I said, I’ll believe it when I see it.

                “For the new and special, humans will always be required. End of line.”

                But I’m the one making predictions. By saying “I don’t know and you don’t either.”

                “All of the bravado of all of the Internet strangers isn’t going to suddenly make me ‘believe.’”

                When I never asked you to believe anything, besides human fallibility.

                “Tough guy talk from internet strangers only impresses children on Xbox live.”

                In response to an invitation to check your assumptions with a survey of examples… using the ‘bravado of internet strangers’ phrase you had just used.

                “Do you often find this approach successful when the bloviating and juvenile attempts at intimidation don’t work?”

                Which is outright fantasy, considering I cannot even guess what part of this was supposed to be “intimidation.”

                And now you want to pretend I’m the one who threw a tantrum and started with insults.

                What a sincere and worthwhile conversation this has been.

                Meanwhile:

                Yeah, you will believe it, when you see it. All I ask is that you remember you said it was literally impossible. But that’s a tall order when you can’t remember what you said two comments prior.
