Nope, just another research tool that can be used to show you are full of shit.

Repeating what you say is not “putting spin on things”. When are you going to understand that? We’ve gone over it far too many times for you to still be confused.

Perhaps actually repeat what I say word for word and not with your own way of saying it. That shit you love to do when you say I inferred, or I implied, or did something you like to claim so you can argue.

Today’s English lesson: It is possible to say something without directly saying it.
For example: “I drove my car from Ohio to Florida”.
A very simple sentence, yet it tells us a myriad of things. What, you ask?
You know how to drive. You did not go in a truck. You did not go by water or air. You were on public roadways. You had to steer. You were on a minimum of three wheels, more likely four. Your drive time exceeded eight hours. You saw other vehicles. You drove in daylight or dark, probably both if you did it nonstop.

All that, without you ever saying a word of it.
Crazy, huh?

As for “word for word”, I have literally given screenshots of your posts, only to have you claim I altered the words.
That’s beyond crazy.

Nah, it could have been on a rollback truck and the person "drove the car" from Ohio to Florida. Details matter Rob, no matter how much you want to leave them out so you can embellish the conversation with your own bile.

That’s not “driving a car”, that’s “transporting a car”, or “driving a truck with a car on it”.
You’re not giving me a “gotcha” moment here. You’re simply demonstrating you struggle with the nuances of language.
“drive - operate and control the direction and speed of a motor vehicle”
You aren’t operating a motor vehicle by carrying it on a rollback.
oops

I hate to tell you but you are gonna have to get out more. Just because you want to say it that way doesn't mean everyone says it that way. Just like someone with a passenger in their car being taken to the airport would say I am driving him to the airport not I am transporting him to the airport.

Edit: Not everything spoken about has just one meaning or way to phrase it.

We’re not talking about giving Fred a ride, we’re talking very specifically about “drove my car”.
Do you think you are piloting your boat when it’s on a trailer behind your car? Riding your motorcycle when you drive around with it in the bed of your truck? Do you think the pilot of the 747 that carried the space shuttle was “piloting the shuttle” during transport? A captain of an aircraft carrier as “flying” the jets that are on the ship?
I sure hope not.

Face it: You’re out of your depth and wrong with this gotcha attempt.
No one will ever consider a car on a roll off carrier being driven by you as “I drove my car”.
Unless maybe they are the type that says “I went up to” when describing a trip in a southerly direction.

I’ll never understand why people are proud of their illiteracy.
Like it’s a badge of honor to sound like a dope and give no value to even their own words.

“I’m not going to waste my time learning how to speak or spell. I’d rather look like a dope.”
Congrats?

Good job neocons. If Target won't respond to the unrelenting social media criticism, then it's time to step things up a notch. The workers deserve for working at such a woke company. [/sarcasm]

LOL, they thought the SNAP program meant you could just show up and take whatever want from the store.

Violent confrontations because you don’t like what a store does? How about go shop somewhere you like?
Fvcking idiots.
