Still not preemptive, though. Do you seriously not understand what the word means? I even gave you an armchair definition in my last comment.

Here, this might help: https://www.dictionary.com/browse/preemptive

EDIT: I think I finally understand. You must've forgotten what your original reply said. Here it is:

Its kinda funny to criticize someone for supposed preemptive action by yourself making a preemptive action.

That doesn't jive with this in your most recent comment:

Because you mislabeled what they did while doing the same thing they did.

I hate to argue semantics - that's a lie; I actually love it, but I know most people hate it - but while the latter quote is correct in the context of my misguided li'l protest (I mislabeled a simple reaction as preemptive, then I made a simple reaction), it's an incorrect explanation of the "humorous observation" - that I mislabeled a simple reaction as preemptive, then I made a preemptive action.

I understand that appearing intelligent is probably very important to you, so you really should make more of an effort to reread your posts when somebody calls out a mistake you've made, rather than dig your heels in.

Learning from our mistakes is how we grow.

..... Yes, which is why it was funny. You mislabeled their reactive comments as preemptive when they werent, while doing the same thing they did while calling it reactive.

Pumpkin, do I need to draw you pictures? Ive explained this for you 3 times.

Adding an edit hours after my comment is cute, but adding an edit where you detail misunderstanding my first comment is adorable.

Yeah, I started to edit then got distracted. I have a life.

Do you get some satisfaction out of constantly lying? Or are you truly that dense? Either way, I suppose there's no point in continuing this.

You got more upvotes than me, so I guess that means you win. Your mother must be so proud.

Jesus, you care about votes on lemmy? Im sorry to hear that bud

Ive repeated myself so many different ways for you, to help you grok the sentence everyone else got the first time. Its very cute you think the same concept reworded for you in different ways is what lying is.

Are you this big a dickrider for jirard? Or did I accidentally step on an insecurity of yours? If I did I promise it wasnt on purpose
