• You are only pointing out the severe consequences of winter, which is potentially uncommon. The top health concerns of summer are not just those and there are much more severe concerns like nausea. Concerns like sun burn, dehydration and heat stroke may very well be prevented…
• Winter is better than summer. Although you get colds and illnesses in winter, you still get illnesses in summer that takes a long time to resolve. For example in summer, you feel really hot and subsequently fall ill and weak- there is not much you can do apart from stay cool…

• Let me tell you something. Your weenis is a very innapropriate part of your body and should be covered with clothing and/or cut off. Whatever you say; That's just your opinion.
• I am sorry but cannot cope with the fact that people go around pointing at people's elbow flab going, "your weenis is showing!". This is unacceptable. These people are not only poking fun at someones elbow but the slang term "penis", which is the vulgar term for dick. This word…

• I will not argue the same points over again, as I feel we have had enough of that. I am going to keep the round brief, and to-the-point. My opponent offers several risks of the site. I believe my opponent did not actually go to my source since he is conjuring up false risks. I…
• This is turning out to be more of an argument than a debate. Anyways, I will try to continue. As you are the instigator, traditionally, the burden of proof falls on you. After contesting my arguments, provide some of your own. My opponent makes a few rather weak attacks on my…

• Sure, if you're not going to attempt to ditch the debate again, I would love to have another serious or troll debate on a topic that we may disagree on. It would be my pleasure to have an opportunity to debate you if you at least give me time to post my arguments before you…
• It was a valiant attempt at trying to make a comeback, but unfortunately, Con has no chance due to his abrupt end to our debate. While Con thinks that the customary "Vote Pro" was inappropriate, it was necessary, because as can be seen, Pro has won this debate. I apologize for…

• I feel my last round sufficiently demonstrated my point that blue receives more attention than the other, equally beautiful colors, and there is no way to prove that it DESERVES that extra attention. Blue is the most common choice of 'favorite color' (as shown by the links I…
• >>"You have said numerous times that "the color of blue is dead", meaning that it is overused in art, advertising, websites, etc... My contention is that it is a beautful color, other colors get their fair share of exposure, and that there are important reasons why blue gets…

• As you can tell this isn't as formal as the normal philosophical or political debate. This debate is more of a quick fun one just to take a break from hard core politics. I want to keep the argument length fairly low so the Max. is at 5,000 characters. Point 1. Nuts ruin the…

• Well if parents want to give their kids two names, they can just give a middle name. For example, John P. O'Keefe instead of John Patrick O'Keefe. Double names are just harder to remember and don't roll off the tip of most people's tongues.
• Have you ever heard of a double name? http://www.sheknows.com... They go like Anna Claire or James Michael, and they are, in my opinion, just too stupid. See, I have exactly one first name, Ice. I have exactly one last name, Bear. People just call me Ice. At the school where I…
