Your definition is incorrect.

In this case you are using the ad hominen logical fallacy.

Do you honestly think that anyone in my corporation is going to listen to you?


If I were a member of your corporation, I would be very offended by this assumption that I am unable to come to my own conclusions.

I would instead look at your behavior in this thread, and ask myself "Do I feel right being led by this man?"

I would then be looking for ways to neutralize your relevance.

No we don't! All we need to do is look at a Sansha. That'll give you a fairly good estimate. Case closed!

Man, everything would be so much more efficient if people listened to me more often.

You sound obsessed. I will add that to the list of symptoms for the differential diagnosis I am currently preparing.

Does anyone happen to have Mr. Ixiris's recent medical scans? How about a copy of his brain scan. The more information I have, the better I can diagnose him.

I didn't say that they're incapable of coming to their own conclusions - I wouldn't hire people who suffered from such a deficiency. I just remarked that you are fundamentally deluded if you believe that they're likely to listen to you.

We all know you're fundamentally deluded anyway, but that's a different story.

Good luck with that.

You call me obsessed, and then you start begging for my medical records.

And then you accuse me of being unable to recognise irony.

What, because you're at least somewhat aware it's all doomed to failure?

I am not even sure what you are talking about now. If you're saying "Good luck getting me removed from my CEOship", it would be a fallacy because I am not actively going to do anything to do that. I am merely hoping that your comrades have more sense than you have exhibited, but if Mixed Metaphor wants to continue to employ you as a CEO, well...

Never stop your enemy when he is making a mistake, I guess. I just wish that no one had seen fit to put you in charge of a plasma spewing death machine.

So very intrigueing, isn't he?

Pardon me for interjecting, but I was curious if this degree of disconnection and focused insanity might be of use in battle.
Evidently it's of no use there, at least after our own observations.

Rumour has it that he must be a terribly inspiring role model for his people, though.
Generally speaking - and I don't want to be impolite here - Ijust wish more outspoken federal loyalist would be like him.

Here's a note - I'm well aware of the possibility of corporate infiltrators, particularly Sansha ones, as such a thing has occured at least once in the past. That's why I own 99% of Mixed Metaphor's shares. The guy who owns the remaining 1%? One of my oldest friends, who feels just about as much revulsion towards the the Sansha as I do.

Like I said, good luck unseating me.

That's pretty rich, coming from a Sansha.

Gotcha. Paranoia as well.

I do believe you might be schizophrenic, Mr. Ixiris

*the video feed shows Andreus with a disdainful smirk which somehow seems physically too large for his narrow face to accomodate. It only diminishes briefly when he takes a sip of the cup of tea he's slowly drinking*

No. Please. Do go on. I haven't had a laugh this good in years.

You have a very strange concept of "over-the-top."

Then again. Sansha. You're not exactly all there.

Alright then.

Here's the simple version:

You are a loudmouth, a craven and your entire achievements in this conflict consist of hooking up with a group of pilots benevolent enough to let you tag along. You were boasting about your prowess, but after getting spanked a couple of times you've tugged your tail between your legs and ran, never to be seen again.

I would be ashamed of myself if I'd open my trap that wide without anything on my plate to back it up. Seeing you do this is sad on so many degrees. I try to treat fellow combat pilots - regardless of the sides they're on - with respect, as it befits soldiers. But you are such a joke for our profession you should either become a politician or crawl back into your hole again.

Except that's not what happened, dipshit.
