    all I know is that they didn't work very well, but I (and others at the poker table) had to be able to smoke and we werent going to allow that in the house.
    I bought a vornado heater off of 1saleaday a few weeks ago. I hope it works as well for heating as my vornado fan does for cooling.
    I'm telling ya...those hot oil radiator heaters do a great job. Unless you want to look into one of these kerosene fired jet engine looking things.

    Their boats are gone, but I'm sure they can fire up their Benz and heat up for a while, tbh

    It's not a strawman if it is explicitly cited as a predicted problem. You are ignorant of the definition of strawman.

    I didn't buy it either, but CC sure tried to sell it.
    CC wasn't saying it would be the end of the world. You built a strawman caricature of CC's remark and began arguing against that instead of his original statement. You used hyperbole to do so.

    It was explicitly cited by you as a problem predicted by CC however CC did not predict an apocalyptic outcome. CC said "Oh yeah, they work pretty good but when everybody plugs 2 or 3 in either circuit breakers start popping or wires start burning up." which is true. Then you responded with "Circuit breaker apocalypse!" and the argument began against that instead of the fact that, when 2 or three large space heaters are connected to the same circuit, one or the other will happen; breakers or burned wires.

    That's called building a strawman.


    A straw man, also known in the UK as an Aunt Sally,[1][2] is a type of argument and is an informal fallacy based on misrepresentation of an opponent's position.[3] To "attack a straw man" is to create the illusion of having refuted a proposition by replacing it with a superficially similar yet unequivalent proposition (the "straw man"), and refuting it, without ever having actually refuted the original position.[3][4]



    "Circuit breaker apocalypse!" was the strawman. "I know electricity and I am not buying the breaker apocalypse either." -Fuzzy That was the attack of the strawman.

    I suppose when you cannot address the subject matter you must resort to hyperbole and strawmen, then on to ad homs.

    There's nothing apocalyptic about a circuit breaker tripping. It can be reset, but that means you overloaded it which means you cannot demand that much power from that circuit. That's something Fuzzy is probably well aware of, but he was lured into addressing your strawman instead of addressing the facts of the statement made by CC.

    Psst. It's not an actual apocalypse, Francis. There's no such thing. I just named what CC described. I never said anything more was going to happen. You failed when you jumped to your stupid inference because you're angry at me. You guys need thicker skins.

    Don't flatter yourself, dumbass. You aren't making anyone angry. Everyone but FuzzyLumpkins understands what an ignorant, contemptible, stupidly argumentative piece of you are.

    It's OK. Just own it. Whining about it like a little girl doesn't make you look any better.

    Eh, I could certainly be wrong about the melting wires, death and possible resulting mayhem, but there is no doubt they mad.

    I'm owning that I could be wrong and that I make people like you mad.

    It's only a big deal because you guys are making it one.

    If I'm merely trolling, I'm doing a pretty good job.

    Why don't you reply again to show how little you think of me?

    Trolling effectively isn't about getting your compressed. It's about dropping bait and counting the strikes. You're so busy biting you don't have time to effectively troll.

    Dropping names huh? Weak . As if the yorkie's opinion means more than anyone else here, and the yorkie basically did the exact same thing it's complaining about. I find that sad.
