Bro, are you familiar with the term 'gish gallop?' Because it's what you're doing right now.

The Gish gallop is a rhetorical technique that involves overwhelming your opponent with as many arguments as possible, with no regard for the accuracy, validity, or relevance of those arguments. For example, a person using the Gish gallop might attempt to support their stance by bringing up, in rapid succession, a large number of vague claims, anecdotal statements, misinterpreted facts, and irrelevant comments.

The Gish gallop is also known as argument by verbosity, proof by verbosity, and shotgun argumentation.



I don't know why that's the approach here, but I'm not thrilled about it. How about we pick one of the 4 topics introduced in quick succession? Your pick, will we talk about:

1. Danny's movie deal
2. California's labor laws
3. Website traffic
4. The RS false alarm a year ago

Pick one.
