Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

It's not that much different than getting free sodas when you're clearly the DD.
Sure it's small loss but if there's more people that are buying overpriced drinks as a result of a DD it comes out in the wash.
Bars aim for return customers and safe environments for their patrons.
Yes, I'm not arguing that the bar shouldn't have given the patron a refund. That was incredibly sweet and good business. I'm arguing that the patron shouldn't have asked in the first place.
that's probably not the worst thing that 19 year old has done that day.
Ha! You are 100% correct
