But mundane and tedious are synonyms. You basically just said "he finds a way to make even the most dull conversations dull".

Awww look at him go, putting that college education to good use


He's wrong anyway though. The intended meaning of my sentence, in which I did use both words correctly, was "He finds a way to make even the most ordinary conversations tiresome."

And yes, I tagged you in that quote, because for some reason you found it necessary to quote me in a topic I already posted in

Mundane typically carries a more negative connotation to it, though. Most people use it to mean dull, as with tedious. This is an ordinary person doesnt sound insulting whereas This is a mundane person does.

Your word choice was at the very least awkward.

And Ill never understand people who whine about being tagged. I dont mind when it happens to me because I might forget to check back in and would otherwise miss the post directed at me. Only time itd be senseless is if I were the TC since any new posts would give me a notification.
Yes his a pretty insightful poster
I disagree that mundane is meant to carry a negative connotation. It can, but it doesn't have to. It's just a synonym for ordinary/common. And it is not a synonym for dull. It often carries the implication that something is dull, but many times where you would otherwise use dull it wouldn't make sense to replace it with mundane.

People dont typically use the word mundane unless theyre trying to describe something as unpleasant in some way or another. I thought that was just common sense. Regardless when I looked up the definition of mundane dull did show up as one of the possible definitions so yes, it could very well be seen as a synonym.

You're the one who took it this far by arguing falsities. I corrected you and you couldn't accept that and now that you've got no leg to stand on you're just resorting to petty insults. It'd be so much more respectable if you'd just admit your mistakes instead of acting condescending despite being wrong.
You're the one who started it by arguing a falsity (that mundane and tedious mean the same thing). I corrected you and you couldn't accept that so you moved the goalposts and said that mundane is supposed to have a negative connotation. I resorted to a "petty insult" (wouldn't a petty insult be more like saying you're fat?) because it's obvious you're going to just keep finding ways to pretend you're right if I continue arguing over it.

It's pretty clear why Jen gets the idea that you think you are so much better than everyone else here.
i like zeus, ok?
Mundane and tedious can mean the same thing and are typically used interchangeably, so no, I wasn't arguing a falsity. Saying mundane has a negative connotation isn't moving the goalpost, it's elaborating on why using mundane as a benign way of saying "ordinary" doesn't really work. I would say that resorting to the whole "you're young, you'll understand when you're older/grow up" shtick is pretty petty and lacks any sort of substance. It's pretty much the last refuge of someone who's lost an argument.

And considering that you just took the whole Rockies posted...

route it's pretty hypocritical to accuse me of acting above others.
No, it's not hypocritical. The whole point of my joke about you pestering the teacher is that it stems from you trying to prove something about how smart and superior you are, the same thing you did in this topic when you tried to bring up a minor semantics argument that stands on questionable ground at best. The comment that I used to act like that and grew out of it is actually true, albeit delivered in a smug a jokey manner.
They can mean the same thing but obviously didn't in context.
Well, you did phrase it poorly and you certainly have been hypocritical and condescending, but I guess you're right about it not being necessary for me to have said anything to begin with.

Since this topic/poll has started I've noticed that he's mostly stopped with the quoting and is making stand alone posts.

Much preferred.

What is Zeus babbling on about this time, he finds a way to make even the most mundane conversations tedious

Does he ever babble about anything that should be read?

Having a cogent debate with Zeus appears to be near impossible, since he immediately defaults to insults.
Not forgetting, he also tries to change the subject with some of the worst logical fallacies.. When he replies to a topic, three days later before purge..


By "name-calling" do you mean calling you a liar for this and other clearly bullshit claims? I'll wait three days for your response.

What claims have I made.. aside from suggesting you need a break from here. Seeing as you're emotionally over involved in a message board.


Says the guy who went out of his way to spread lies and harass me on said messageboard. Which is why it's now sad messageboard.

Idk if he posts something more than three sentences I read the first sentence and decide if I want to read anymore. 99% of the time I don't. I didn't read any of his last post to me because it's a book about "how do you know people here don't like you if you're only using your own personal experience?" which makes no god damn sense.


Given that you completely misstated the actual remark, is it any wonder that it would no longer make sense? Not that relying on a weird anecdotal claim is particularly sensible.

Otherwise, if you're just going to read the first sentence, you're better off just ignoring me altogether.

And attacked by a cadre of dedicated trolls who provoke negative reactions and spin things to have false connotations, in addition to flat-out lying. But I have to admit, you trolls are pretty good at it. It's rare to find your level of manipulative sociopathy on a site like Gamefaqs.
