If you'd look at their discussions about the whole Israel/Palestine thing, then you'd see that they both hold very different views on that subject. You'll also notice that I've been rather quiet on that subject in comparison to the both of them. That alone should be solid evidence that we are all different people.

He will say something along the lines of: "But... but... but I have not said THE SPECIFIC WORDS ______________". IOW, he rejects deductive reasoning when convenient in the same manner that you reject set theory when convenient.

That's fair. Nobody sees every single post that occurs on this forum. However, if you take a gander into pretty much any Israel/Palestine related thread, you will probably find several back and forth posts between IBD and ITN in which they are in strong disagreement with each other.

You can also dig up some accounting-related posts between IBD and myself in which we both clearly disagree about some particulars (even though we are in agreement on most aspects).

You can also dig up some posts on the subject of Christianity. IBD is a self-proclaimed atheist (not to be confused with the religious belief that God does NOT exist) while ITN and I are both self-proclaimed Christians. ITN and I do attend churches of differing denominations (there's MANY different ones out there, and some churches are even non-denominational) but as Christians we both share the same core belief that Jesus Christ exists and is precisely who he says he is.

ITN is from Washington, I'm from Wisconsin, and IBD is from Maryland (I think?).

One could go on, but I would think that this is a good bit of evidence that we are different people.

So why use the same language? Be original! Be unique!

You don't get to disagree without providing an example.

I strongly disagree.

I see that your comment's gotten IBDaMann to change his avatar, must admit I find it rather funny .

I really like his current avatar. He's very creative with that sort of stuff.

Mine just stays the same old "boring" catbird. It does have some reasoning behind it, though.

1) The simplest reason is that they're my favorite bird. What they lack in appearance they more than make up for in personality.
2) I view a catbird as representative of a "conservative" similar to how I view a cowbird as representative of a "leftist". Catbirds can recognize their own eggs, so if a cowbird subsequently lays its eggs in a catbird nest (expecting the catbird to raise its young FOR it), the catbird will actually eject those foreign eggs from its nest. I view that as representative of "rejecting the socialism of leftists".
3) Catbirds are also rather good mimics. They can (quite well!) mimic the calls of other bird species. In fact, during breeding season, male catbirds will attempt to impress females with all sorts of mimicry vocalizations that they've learned over the years. The better a male is at this, the more a female will view the male as "experienced" and "resourceful" (IOW, as a good mate). As this relates to JPP and my avatar, I personally enjoy mimicking the vocalizations of leftists from time to time (poking fun at them).
4) A catbird's preferred habitat is within dense shrubs/thickets and they are generally reclusive. I find that behavior to be representative of my own behavior.
