    I don’t think you understand what anecdotal evidence means. One person seeing something repeatedly is still anecdotal and of similarly little value when making statements about broader trends.

    You didn’t link or even reference this media coverage that specifically supports your assertion so yes, for your comment and even this one, the observation is still solely yours. We’re not mind readers, we don’t know what you’re not telling us and, in case you ask, no, we’re not going to look it up for you. If you don’t provide evidence, people online generally assume you’re making it up, and rightfully so.

      I understand what you are saying, I just discount its importance. Plus, you started by calling me a name and now you attempt to talk down to me. Bet you’re fun at parties too.

        That’s a lot of deflection when you could have just said “I am unable to address anything you wrote” and saved so much time.

            What’s funny is how you call someone a coward elsewhere for doing the same. I guess it takes one to know one.

              Since I don’t care what you said, I also don’t care what you say. If you want to check elsewhere, it’s up to you. Otherwise, you’re talking to the wind my friend. Call it some names.
