Why California’s Proposition 8 Would Make Jesus Weep (4 Viewers)

You want in on this? No, you don't.
Believe it or not I do. But it is kind of tacky to get someone I respect and ask them to be a middle man in a bet. If it has research behind the money than it is Kosher. So what is your expertise?What subjects do you teach?Maybe, you already are receiving my money in some form.

These are not unreasonable questions?
From you, yes. I'm not interested in having some lame discussion about this. You've been presented a bet, and you're balking. If you truly believe I'm lying, you have your chance to not only expose me, but to greatly profit from it.But you're not willing to risk this. Fair enough.

What are you afraid of Pickles?? Just answer the question so you guys can get on with your nerdy chemical quiz...

What relevance do they have to the bet whether he is who he says he is? Either he can verify it or not.

Possibly :lmao:

He is playing chicken. He didn't think I would take him up on the bet and he could skate with his false credentials.
In the world of people that aren't delusional, you're the one that's trying to sidestep the bet by asking irrelevant questions.Can I ask a favour from you? When you have to get a new user name because you can't continue to dodge this bet for the rest of the time you use Konotay, could you PM me your new one?

You still haven't taken him up on the bet.
It isn't a bet on my part. If he has the goods he will get the money, probably more than he was expecting. It is a win win. He gets money, business, respect and I get some research that I want.
 
I'm not sure I ever want this to end.100 pages.
Pickles this doesn't have to be hard. What courses do you teach?What is your expertise?
Sorry, it's going to cost you now.Or you could probably just run a search. Sheesh, I've never made it a secret.
What are afraid of? My terms are very fair.
Because they're not my terms. This bet is only meant to humiliate you, which I will do if you agree to it. I don't care about your research interests.

Damn, are you always rude??
 
Konotay, you're the one being deliberately obtuse here, not Pickles. Here is the deal:

There is a bet on the table. Pickles needs to prove to you that he is a professor of chemical engineering. If he can, you pay him ten grand. If he can't, he pays you. There are no questions that need to be asked. You are not contributing to a research and development project. You don't have to become friends with him or chat with him. There is no need to pay a commission. All of that is nonsense. Either agree to the bet, and then find a third party, or back out.

Pretty straight forward.

Nobody has to be humiliated. That is a dumb game.If you have the goods put up or shut up. We don't have to play chicken with larges sums of money to prove our point. Kind of childish way to throw away money. Better, we could have an honest exchange of money for goods and services.Or we could just discuss Chemical Engineering. Nothing wrong with that.Game on?

So you say you're certain he's not a Chemical Engineering professor, but you don't have the stones to do more than ineffectively call him a liar on an Internet message board?

You're backing out, Konotay. He gave his terms. If you truly doubt that he's an engineer, call him on them. If you can't afford ten grand, lower the bet amount. But don't play this silly game, you just make yourself look worse. If you're scared of losing, just say so.

You called me a liar about my professional credentials. Where is this request for an honest exchange of ideas coming from? That's what the message board is for. You took it to another level entirely.Either apologize and move on, or take the bet. I'm not interested in your backpedaling.

KONOTAY- I'll see your $20 and raise you $40

DEALER- Call. What you got, Konotay?

KONOTAY- First, I need to ask you questions.

DEALER- What questions?

KONOTAY- We need to chat first before I can make you a contribution.

DEALER- Contribution? What contribution? This is a bet! Show me your cards.

KONOTAY- If you're going to be rude, I'm leaving.
