    Did you think In was suggesting the shit itself is somehow protective? I didn’t assume that people would assume that, my mistake.

    I thought the implication was obvious.

    implication

    noun

    the conclusion that can be drawn from something although it is not explicitly stated.

    Like if I said “I’ve had a very sensual weekend. Your mom says to say hi.” You could probably understand the implication and wouldn’t just think your mom has accidentally rang me up as a wrong number only to say hello to you, would you?

      and that’s why

      that’s why

      Idk man, look at the words you write after you write them - don’t expect me to read between the lines of your incorrectly expressed thought.

        Yeah. The presence of shit shows they’re not washed.

        Unwashed eggs don’t need refrigeration.

        No-one else thought I was claiming shit has protective properties, so perhaps you should consider that you might be mistaken in who has expressed what incorrectly.

        It isn’t my fault that your literary skills aren’t as good as your chicken farming skills.

        Okay imagine you and a good friend often get to go cruising in your mom’s car when she’s not using it. One day you tell them, “Mom’s gonna be home all weekend, that’s why we can go to the party we didn’t have a ride to”.

        But huh. Wait a minute? How does your mom staying at home mean you suddenly get to go somewhere? Huh? Your friend would definitely be mighty confused and ask you to try expressing your thoughts more clearly, wouldn’t they? Right? Becsuse how on Earth would your mom sitting on a sofa mean your travel problem is gone? She’s sitting. Still. At home. How is it relevant?

            There’s no need to be ashamed just because you didn’t know something as simple as what an implication is.

            I’m sure you can figure out that “might be mistakenly in…” is obviously the phone’s autocorrect correcting an adjective to an adverb. Same with “would” to “wouldn’t.”

            You could’ve just avoided answering, but felt some sort of compulsion to, because you don’t like that I pointed out a mistake you made. It’s very understandable, I remember feeling the same occasionally as a teen.

            However it is a bit ironic that you would try to pretend that I’m the less literate one when you didn’t know what an implication is.

            You added good information to the thread, like the part I was referring to being called “the bloom”. Thanks fo4 that. But no-one thought I was saying eating shit is healthy, I’m sure.

              The implication is that you think chicken shit protects eggs. That is what your words said, that is what they implicate.

              You can argue what you meant until the stars die. It doesn’t change anything.

                No, that’s what you inferred from them, incorrectly.

                You can argue what you meant until the stars die. It doesn’t change anything.

                Exactly. Everyone here knows what I meant, except you, who wanted to boast with their chicken expertise, so you had to pretend as if I had meant that excrement is protective. And it would be exceedingly hilariously of you to tell me what I meant with my words.

                We all know how strong a disgust reflex shit causes. We know it’s not healthy to eat it. Thats why — for the the majority of us — that can be left as an implication.

                You can pretend until the stats side indeed. You’ll still be wrong.

                  Got it buddy, you definitely know English better than I do. Continue on, definitely speaking English clearly and correctly.

                    Are you pretending you don’t understand that autocorrect obviously changed “stars die” to “stats side”, when I’m painfully obviously copying your earlier message?

                    You’re pretending that autocorrect mistakes have something to do with linguistic capacity?

                    Alright. Did you infer or imply that? ;>

                    Well since you can’t point to a single mistake I’ve made and don’t understand the difference between “infer” and “imply”, yes, I think I do have a better grasp on English than you.
