... You do realize that examples don't provide a constraint, right? ... right? Anyway, you seem very confused with internet vernacular; everyone else was able to grasp the context. You appear to be the only individual experiencing difficulties. Just saying.

Yes, there’s no constraint, feel free to use language as you wish. That doesn’t make your argument any better as to what words actually mean, given examples, from a dictionary, when you claim to know how to use one and that I don’t. Inane, specious, and mendacious are other entries in the dictionary that come to mind. I also have no trouble comprehending the argument before me, it’s simply misdescribed. Can you not comprehend that? Apparently not.

  Hey man, I'm just gonna point out why the examples don't provide constraints. I'm surprised you didn't realize this, seeing as you're intimately familiar with the operation of a dictionary. Under the first definition: > an arduous task And let's take a look back to the post to which you originally replied! > but the post above explain an arduous process Wow, those look really similar, don't they? The quoted usage you find so objectionable is /nearly identical/ to the example you yourself copied. Galaxy brain. Here's another definition you might want to study. It will really help reduce your confusion with internet interactions: Hyperbole (noun) > extravagant exaggeration (such as "mile-high ice-cream cones") I truly believe once you internalize this information you will grasp where you went wrong.

This is not Reddit or Twitter, please refrain from such petty, openly disrespectful and, shall we say arduous, slurs.

      It is very telling to me that you first chose to ignore the definition I provided, and now you have chosen to ignore how your example was demonstrably self-destructive. You're grasping desperately for straws by focusing on everything not inconvenient for your initial point. I'll take that as an admission you know you're wrong. Here's some more advice for ya: Do your homework next time and come prepared. Or maybe, just maybe, don't try to play the pedantic card. It's clearly not your best game.
