    It all started because I can afford an iPod, as can half of the living population, as evidenced by the fact that almost everyone I know and have seen in London/Houston/Dublin/Seattle/Any Other big city I've been to since they came out has had one. And it angered him that I reasoned to myself that to pay twice the price of getting mine fixed and have a working one, now with video was worth it. Did that make sense?

    Yeah I should be banned because he thinks I'm "too static" to understand simple things. Ouch. Do it! Ban me Rocke

    So he missed out on ZondaBoy's post regarding the whole 'invisible ink' stunt, maybe we should ban My Porsche / Colin for being an idiot!

    Well I do believe that banning is overkill for something that is clearly not against the rules. What harm is there from constructive criticism? The point may not be as important to you, but I pointed it out anyways. I admit, it must seem like I have some sort of vendetta but I sincerely do not.

    But things like this I must correct. Half of the "living population" subsists are just over $2 USD per day, hardly enough to afford an iPod.

    Hey! Over 6 months, they could have enough for a 60GB iPod. Where they get the music is up to them. And maybe I was talking about the OTHER half of the living pop.?

    Really though, im not sure if anglo is your 2nd lango, but you need to understand what a hyperbole is.

    And I find it hard to believe that over 3,000,000,000 people live on $2USD per day...anything to back that up?

    Just because the other half can subsist on over $2 USD per day does not make them iPod-bound. English is my second language. I also know what a hyperbole is. But you were clearly mistaken, even if they were just implications.

    According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poverty
    Quote Originally Posted by Wikipedia

    2.7 billion is around 45%, meaning 50% with "just over" (as I stated) $2 is a fairly well-made estimate.

    I, again, question your lack of awareness. This is not difficult to believe, not even by a long shot. Millions of people die from poverty every year. The facts are there. It is somewhat frustrating for me to understand your reckless disregard of what seems sensible to most others.

    NO ONE dies from poverty. Ever. Fact. People die from complications caused by poverty, starvation, dirty water, inadequite health care, etc.

    I knew what poverty was though, thanks.

    But you were clearly mistaken, even if they were just implications.
    Obviously you don't understand what a hyperbole is, if you thought those were "implications".

    Here's a link for YOU.

    Well since we are teaching each other about tools in speach, you should know that that was an implication. You can anally argue that bullets do not kill people, it is complications caused the IMPACT of a bullet to a human skull that kills people. Blatantly obvious...

    Thanks for introducing me to what a hyperbole is though.

    Complications resulting from Poverty...Usually link Poverty as a contributing factor to this poor person's death.

    Lack of sustenance causes organ failure. DIRECT link.

    /End argument.

    It's actually quite a cold train of thought - almost laywer worthy.
