I don't think a rational human being can interpret that one though o.O
This, though as far as trolling went it was pretty successful. You know, from funny that you're trying to that's kinda annoying to pls just stop my brain hurts from trying to explain this kinda thing.
Biggs sent a few good ones, he was an artist.
I thought the judge said you couldn't get on the internet anymore in addition to living near parks and elementary schools.
Nope. The ankle braclet finally came off. 
I can't reward every one that says they screwed my mom or tells me to go die in a fire with a FR.
Your mom already rewarded them enough.
HEYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I've sent FR to Kate Upton, Olivia Wilde, and Jelena Jankovic. The first two wildly disappointed. The 3rd one was pretty much what I expected.
Apart from the fact that they do have an opinion. They find it boring, or think it sucks.
What's your point? What is your argument exactly?

You said if they didn't have an opinion, they should STFU. Finding something boring, or thinking something sucks is an opinion.
Seems pretty straightforward.

I had to scroll back and re-read my own post several times to find out where the confusion lies. I was talking about people who don't have an opinion on something and just shutting down other people trying to discuss it. Saying "Boring" isn't an opinion on the subject- its an interjection on the conversation itself. To further illustrate this :
Person A: I think mass effect is scientifically accurate.
Person B : I disagree. Here's why....
Person C : Boring! *rolls eyes*
^ A and B have an opinion. C would have no opinion of the subject. He interjecting with his indifference. That's not an opinion.

It IS an opinion. His opinion is that the conversation itself, not the topic, is boring.
Though you can surmise from that, that their opinion of the topic itself, is likewise, boring.

What SMR said. You may not like it, but it's an opinion. I'm not saying doing that is right, but you might want to rephrase your statement to something like "People who don't want to contribute should STFU".
Just saying.
That's an opinion, not a critique.

You're arguing over semantics rather than the spirit of the statement. You're basically nitpicking now. Daemon got the point which is more important.

Well I see what you did there.

I am not sure I should stick my fingers in this one, but C does in fact state an opinion: he/she just doesn't consider the topic important enough to explicate said opinion further. The comment is - however much you (as A, B, or an extrernal observer) disagree with both the form and content of the statement - relevant to the ongoing discussion: A and B want to throw themselves into a debate on the scientific merits of mass effect, C considers this a waste of time, and expresses his thought in what he/she considers the most expedite form: to actually launch him/herself into a debate as to why he/she holds such an opinion would actually weaken the very point C is trying to make. While this can come off as trolling, A and B now in fact have the perfectly acceptable strategy of ignoring C, and keep their discussion going; whenever C wanders off in search of a snack (within 5 seconds from the last statement, we can presume 
), A and B no longer have to wonder what is going on.
I do understand your frustration with people who use this strategy, repeatedly and exclusively; but it is not annoying because it is a lack of opinion, it is annoying because it violates our accepted rules for conversation: saying it once makes the point, saying it over and over violates a number of principles of cooperation; even then, I would be careful about making statements about a person's intelligence, as said principles can and are often flouted on purpose and for valid reasons.
You're arguing over semantics rather than the spirit of the statement. You're basically nitpicking now.
Of course I'm arguing over semantics. What else would I be arguing about? You're making a big deal about how "stupid" people may or may not be, and the statements you make are flawed logically.
