Of course the last bastion of the failed debate; ad hominem and straw man.

Have a fine day.

Of course the last bastion of the failed debate, a poor attempt to dismiss the oppositions' arguments as logical fallacies. The only problem is you clearly have no idea what either of those logical fallacies are. Didn't even mention reductio ad absurdum.

It's ridiculous that you're actually here arguing that there's absolutely no place in modern science for the fahrenheit system of measurement. What a backwards, preposterous stance to take. Your small-mindedness will not serve you.

You literally were refuting points that I didn't make, that is a straw man. You stopped debating in good faith; therefore the debate is over.

It’s ridiculous that you’re actually here arguing that there’s absolutely no place in modern science for the fahrenheit system of measurement.

Again; I didn't say that, that is you.

Now that the debate is over we may commence the shit slinging.

You sir, are an uneducated rat fondler; I hope you enjoy your mothers basement.

My dude, my entire claim is "both systems of measurement have their applications" And you objected to that. You are here right now arguing the contrary. You chose to voice an opposing opinion.

Do you even know what your point is? Are you seriously so unfulfilled that you're here just arguing for the sake of arguing?

Look, I've made my point, I've provided arguments to support it. I'm not gonna keep arguing with some edgelord. Good luck with whatever.
