The following is an example of what it's like to debate with Freak a lot of the time.

Innocent poster: "Trees are green."

Freak: "Trees are not green."

Puzzled innocent poster: "Uh, yes trees are green."

Freak: "But green is a color."

Innocent poster wondering what's going on with this guy: "I realize that but the color green can describe something."

Freak: "We're not talking about describing things, we're talking about trees. I'm beginning to think you don't know the basics of plants."

Innocent poster figuring out that Freak knows exactly what he's doing and just likes to "stir it up": "Yes, I know we're talking about trees and the fact that trees are described as being the color green."

Freak: "A tree is not a color. A tree is a plant. Were you aware of this?"

Freak would be right, though. Trees are not green. Some trees just look green.

This may seem to be an insignificant point, and in itself it probably is. But a lot of people fall into the habit of "sloppy thinking" because they don't bother to take the time to really consider the accuracy of many of their own assumptions. Perhaps Freak is just trying to spur people into taking the time to really consider their own assumptions.
