Gee, I'm surprised that you didn't answer if you believe that something you wrote actually presented an ontology of meaning.

In other news, I have a bridge for sale.

This is the clarification I was referring to. Sorry if it's too confusing for you.

Sure. Here's my answer:

Imagining myself as Frownland being honest: "I'm not even sure what you're asking me, but I'm sure not going to admit as much; I just want to be snarky, especially because you apparently don't share my views."

I already know I'm a bad debate meanie. I meant the leading presumptive questions you were asking Guybrush.

But I'm wondering about his views. How am I going to answer what his views are?

When did you stop raping little girls? I am just wondering about your views and don't want to answer for you.

Never, because I never started in order to be able to stop in the first place.

See how easy it is to answer a question?

You should try it sometime.

Don't you think it'd be a good idea to stop?

See how easy it is to pose a useless question to divert the narrative?

If it were something I were doing, sure I'd think that.

Again, very easy to answer a question.

We're "diverting the narrative" from what, exactly?

It can be difficult to answer a question if you don't understand what someone is asking, however, and you are reluctant to admit that you don't understand it.
