Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:

Nah, you can't reason someone out of a belief they weren't reasoned into.
I don't think that's true, and I don't think you really believe that either.........
But I believe it after testing the hypothesis multiple times!
Is that a reference to that tweeter thread about it?
Honestly?
No.
The original comment was "you can't reason someone out of a belief they weren't reasoned into" and I was just playing on that by trying to reason them out of the belief that you can't reason someone out of a belief............
Or at least suggest that you can reason someone out of a belief they weren't reasoned into. Because it seems within reason that you can reason someone out of a belief they weren't reasoned into and the reason I suggest that is it seems perfectly reasonable.
(Yeah -- sometimes I just get bored and want to see how long I can keep a sentence going and use the same word in it before it breaks down into total chaos).
