These are the comments I was referring to. Seemed to me he just kept upping the ante to keep an argument going. For argument's sake.

Regardless of Little Pickle's views, you and I were clearly not on the same page. I agree arguing both sides of a view is beneficial, it's one of the first challenges you are given in a debate class, but I don't agree there's a benefit to making stupid arguments because "this is the internet!".
