i never claimed it to be a living being. what i was doing is called personification.

i was smiply making a METAPHOR, and stated that, rightly so.


That doesn't make you right, or make it appropriate.


And who made you the magnificent, omnipotent, sayer of all that is right and wrong?

what dante failed to mention, is that that was after only 15 minutes of work.

Ah, great way to defend yourself. Some things never change.

Whether I'm the judge of anything has no relevance.

Well, first of all carl, ACK meant the metaphor wasn't appropriate, because what's the use of saying it to a bunch of gamers who have been strong enough to go on with the game as long as they have.

Also, you did say it was a metaphor, and the metaphor you stated was about a Dog that was wrought with pain and be better off dead. Then you said what you were doing was personification, which is giving human like qualities to inanimate objects. The dog in the metaphor is an animate object.

Therefore ACK is saying your not right, because of your misuse of literary terms.



PS (Does ACK have to do this all the time? I guess I would tire after so many explanations on simple errors)
