Therefore, you are not drawing from an overall max quantity and because of this, not limiting your future capabilities in any way by posting.
17. anything unused, unproductive, or not properly utilized.
Does it say anything about a limit?


heh, this is fun to watch

you used it as a verb not a noun =)
Wasting does not necessarily mean there is a limit to the certain item/s you are wasting. Even though I used it as a verb, the same applies. There was no 'adequate return' in Marshall's post, nor was it 'employ[ed] uselessly'.1. to consume, spend, or employ uselessly or without adequate return; use to no avail or profit; squander: to waste money; to waste words.
You already showed your opinion with your original "god doesnt exist." post, hence the "Hence: God doesnt exist" post was pointless as well as being a waste.Marshall wrote:no... i was mearly showing my opinion...


wrong again. Once again, to waste something you must be drawing from some type of bank or overall pool of some type. In this instance he is not doing so. Its a simple matter of adding versus subtraction, to waste you must subtract. While marshall did not add much, he did add something, no matter how meaningless or stupid
I refer back to the afforementioned definition in my previous post.Soviet wrote:wrong again. Once again, to waste something you must be drawing from some type of bank or overall pool of some type.

Heck, even 'squander' doesn't include a 'limit' part to its meaning:
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/squander1. to spend or use (money, time, etc.) extravagantly or wastefully (often fol. by away).


dammit peds, you idiot. KS's argument is the only valid thing I've heard so far. I understand your dumbass definition, thats not the point. The fact that it is being brought from a previous quantity does not even need to be mentioned. It is a simple matter of common logic. No one has unlimited money, in fact, to use something you must be drawing it from a whole. HOWEVER, you ARE NOT drawing it from a whole thing, therefore it simply exists. To say something is wasted, you must first acknowledge what it is, in fact, wasting. In this case, nothing. (with a slight exception towards bandwidth)
As for the bandwidth thing, that kind of makes sense, however since it technically is not his bandwidth its not fully valid. However i take that to be logical enough to accept peds's previous terminology.
