    And I’m saying your definition is covered by my phrasing.

      We are in agreement. But if you still don’t agree with me, I don’t think that makes you look like a flat earther. Cheers, gotta go make dinner!

          This makes you look like a flat earther.

              No, you have resorted to ad hominin attacks in your discussion of flat earthers, which is a very flat earth thing to do. If your logic and ideas are insufficient to win people to your perspective personal attacks are a weak substitute.

                  Does a bridge dweller live on the bridge, in the bridge, or under the bridge?
