well jb looks like we got ourselves a funnyjunk meme instead of mountains of evidence

[redbreegull]

burden of proof is on you.

Know Your Meme – Rustled My Jimmies

On April 12th, 2012, Modesto, California resident James Ferrario shot dead a uniformed deputy police officer and a locksmith who had come to evict him from his house. He then barricaded himself inside, and caused a standoff with local law enforcement.[13] Shortly thereafter, a troll posted an AMA thread on 4chan’s /b/ board, claiming to be Ferrario.[14] The news of the standoff was quickly picked up by Sacramento FOX affiliate KTXL Fox 40.[13] A reporter made the mistake of featuring the aforementioned /b/ thread, and claimed that Ferrario had a gorilla fetish (due to numerous Jimmies-related images being posted), saying that he called himself “Jimmy Russel” or “Jimmy Rustle.” Once /b/ got word of this, Jimmies jokes exploded over the thread, and spread across the site.

you really fucking suck at this, from the same source, at the top, like i wouldn't read it:

The phrase originates from FunnyJunk. On June 16th, 2010, an image macro of a frowning gorilla with the overlaid text “That really rustled my jimmies” was posted by an anonymous user who has currently deactivated his account.[23] On July 18th, 2012, the image had an overall score of over 100 with nearly 7000 views. The original photograph of the gorilla can be found in a Flickr post titled “nors”[7] uploaded by Frank Wouters on July 4th, 2007.

what? I wasn't claiming it came from that incident because that wouldn't even make sense. maybe you should focus less on trying to be a shit to everyone

from a statistical standpoint, neither of us solely has the burden of proof.

but all things considered, if you think that buying a 5 year old 100k mile single owner vehicle carries a risk that is greater than or equal to that of buying a year old 30k mile rental car, you're insane.

[Bread Regal]

and really, again from a statistical standpoint, even if my claim wasn't true, it'd be impossible to prove your claim wrong.

[redbreegull]

Then I guess the best evidence we have is my experience huh

[Bread Regal]

you never took a statistics class did you

[redbreegull]

evidently you took one that didn't involve numbers

[Bread Regal]

n = 1 is the best sample size, really.

[Trotskilicious]

our experience also trumps yours, since, to a man, there's years more of it. you're not dealing with fucking amateurs here

this doesn't really make sense although it would depend on what kind of vehicle you are getting, if you are buying american, a car at 100,000 miles, even doted on like a child, is anywhere between half and three quarters of the way through its non-problematic life. so unless you believe most previous rentals start to disintegrate between 45 and 60 thousands miles, I don't see the logic here

so your sample of size 1 doesn't even fucking matter or contribute to your argument you snotty liberal arts turd. in the absense of readily available evidence in this inconsequential messageboard thread, it's not unreasonable to say that given that rental cars are summarily treated like shit by the people who drive them, that the risk of earlier failure is greater.

[Trotskilicious]

i am also a snotty liberal arts turd

[Bread Regal]

is really the only point that's being made in the thread. the point your arguing is that a car having dozens of shitty drivers has no ill effect on its longevity.

If I had to choose between an american car with less than 100,000 miles and a foreign job with 300,000 miles I would choose the american only because parts and labor will be cheaper and easier to find.

also patriotism.

lol guy I was not saying 1 person constitutes a good statistical argument. I was responding to what you said by saying my experiential evidence carries more ethos than anything anyone else has been able to come up with, which is pathetic, but go figure. I JUST KNOW THEY IS BAD OK!"!?>! EVEYRONE KNOWS DAT IS SELF EVIDENT

[slunken]

but i get what you're saying totally

[Bread Regal]

which is retarded. not extra chromosome retarded. like, retarded as in you started a thought, and then didn't finish it.

[slunken]

oh look the formatting is all fucked HI GUYS

I guess you are getting upset because now you're trying to make it seem like I made that claim when I didn't

[Trotskilicious]

look jb, this guy's traveled to greece. his mind has been opened. he's figured out a clever way to get a great, cheap car and you're jealous. he's got it figured out.

[redbreegull]

ad hominem

[Bread Regal]

then what is the point you're arguing, dong dong.

[Trotskilicious]

i think his jimmies are rustled

Reposting that in case it was at the bottom of one of your common pages (10PPP FOR LIFE) or it just got lost in the middle of that slap fight I walked in on.
