I have a problem with the original 'kissed a girl' posting.

Superficially it looks amusing. In fact it is an ad hominem
attack on Dave Miller.

Rather than reply to Dave's detailed points, he attempts to ridicule
him.

Courtesy and politeness are very important in arguments. To achieve
understanding is better than to winning, especially by underhand means.

'Logical argument' in wikipedia.
