Many of you were present to hear what a certain chatter was saying about me the night of the internet radio program. Unfortunately, we've all seen tactics like this where one tries to psychologize the opponent rather than deal with their arguments. However, I do think of DJ the most when this comes up.
Thus, I suggest we from now on refer to the act of psychologizing an opponent minus an argument as "Loftusizing."

But wait, we're only making DJ's resolve stronger! There's no way we'll be able to stand up to him if... oh forget it, I can't say this without breaking into hysterical laughter. Loftusizing. I like it.

I like that one. Now we need one for obsessive ranting... perhaps Jimboing?

I think "Loftusizing" is good.

How about when someone rants excessively with extreme emotion and provides pre-supposing and biased sources, we call it "Pulling a JimBoner" a clumsy or stupid mistake]

I'm thinking that the Jimbo one relates more to Stevec.
