The whole 'big balls' thing is a silly ad-hominem that weakens your argument.
I've worked with payment processing and some of the guys I saw makes 'big balls' look like an experienced and reliable custodian. Not to mention the high turnover, bargain priced overseas software outsourcing sweatshops.

- wat10000 1y ago"Ad-hominem" translates as "to the person" and means an argument that attacks the person they're arguing against rather than actually addressing the topic being discussed. Here, the topic is a person. It's not an ad-hominem to describe facts about a person when your argument is explicitly about that person.
