How so? He was talking about the size of the store, and Best Buy is also a massive store. He wasn't telling me I had the stores mixed up.SandmanEric Stevens
How many times do you need me to answer this question? Why can't you read??
I need you to answer this question as it cuts the legs out from under your claim that "there is nothing in Savageduck's response that would have me believe I had mixed them up."
Hehe, well only by seeing the logo on the web page. Remember, having "B&H" in my head and a video about a "superstore" that has camera gear and home entertainment gear wouldn't tell me that I had them mixed up, and since Best Buy presumably is in NY as well, that wouldn't really help either. Plus, the video doesn't really show the size of the store that well, other than to explicitly state its size.SandmanEric Stevens
Haha! There was no "certainty", since whether or not I was typing the wrong name wasn't being challenged. Savageduck were talking about SIZE. He wasn't telling me that B&H exists only in NY and that I couldn't have been to B&H, remember? THAT would have been to try to tell me I was wrong.
Looking at that videor would have told you that no matter what store you thought yo had been in, it wasn't the B&H store.
Make up your mind, earlier you said you knew I wasn't in reference to B&H and you were desperately trying to tell me I had the stores mixed up and I "persisted" in spite of that. Now you're saying that you thought I talked about B&H and called it tiny?SandmanEric Stevens
At the time, Savageduck actually thought I WAS talking about B&H and was just amazed that I could call it tiny.
So was I.
Also, it never occurred to me that you would never have heard of B&H.I've obviously heard of it (I didn't make up the name "B&H" from out of the blue) but I didn't know they were a NY-only camera+video+computer store.
Not they. You. And you say lots of weird things, so you asking me about whether I've been to a Best Buy in New York isn't something out of the ordinary.Eric StevensWhat do think everyone else was doing apart from signalling concern that your use of B&H was in some way wrong?Sandman
Asking me if I was in NY and that's about it.
I wonder why they would do that?
Did you wonder why they were doing that?Sure I did - why would you ever ask me if I've been to a Best Buy in NY? But hey, this is Eric, he's sort of weird.
"Uh, are you sure you're saying the correct name of the store? B&H is a NY-only store, you seem to have them mixed up"Eric StevensSandmanSandmanEric Stevens
Savageduck questioned my claim with regards to size, you asked me if I were in New York. Neither told me that I was mistakenly saying B&H instead of something else. Stop pretending otherwise. YOu both thought I was in reference to B&H, and naturally so.
We thought you were _wrong_ in reference to B&H.
But just being an asshole and not telling me?
Tell you - what? I thought you had made an error but without engaging in a conversation I couldn't tell what. (Note: Arguments are not conversations)
