Him: What exactly is your plan doing?
Me: Lifting the ban on foreign aid to countries that use DDT.
Him: No further questions... Oh wait, I have one: Can you believe it's not butter?
Me: I cannot.

[WhitBug]

(He was running an expand the UN-AU Hybrid Peacekeeping Mission in Sudan; she ran a counterplan that the special ops would destroy all Sudanese planes, solving for airstrikes.)
Him: Wait. So the counterplan text is, what again?
Her: The Special Ops will destroy Sudanese planes.
Him: How will they not get caught?
Her: They're Special Ops.
Him: And this solves for my advantages better ... how?
Her: We should just let the Special Ops do it. Sudan won't even know they're there. That's why they're called "Special Ops." They do it at like ... night.

For this CP to work last year, because it really wasn't competitive unless you went with perms are severance.
The first question you had to ask was,
"does your plan support pedophilia?" It was pretty funny

We were running a SBSP aff with an energy independence advantage, and the neg had just read some cards about how oil prices had actually dropped since the summer.

Me: So you read some evidence that oil prices have gone down recently right?
him: yes
Me: But there is still only a finite supply of oil on the earth, correct?
him: We don't take a stand on that
Me: Eventually the world will face oil shortages won't it?
him: You're the aff. you have the burden of proof, so you have to read evidence that there is a limited supply of oil on earth.
Me: So, you're saying then that oil prices will continue to decline indefinately until they reach zero?
him: they could
Me: (sarcastically) And then everyone will just be swimming in free oil?
him: unless you have evidence to the contrary
Me: Does this free oil spew from a magical oil fountain that no one knows about?
him: Unless you can prove otherwise

We were going against these two really stupid chicks- this is how the cross-x went down.

Me- You advocate more nuclear reactors right?

1AC- Yeah, sure.

Me- How will you get rid of the waste?

1AC- We'll put it in the trash.

In the 1AC my partner read a China turn for Clean Coal

1AC- Do you advocate clean coal?

My partner- yes

1AC- Is Germany okay with that?

nobody will get this...

"You talk about climbing a ladder, to understanding. and that this lets you gain the advantages of our performance."

"yeah.."

"well, what ladder is that?"

"uuh"

"LOOK. DO YOU SPECIFY YOUR LADER!??!?!?"

"NO! WE DONT L-SPEC"

"(Speaking to his mom, who was watching the round) Mom, that was funny because like, in debate there are these arguments concerning specification, like Agent or Over, and it's just ridiculous that anyone would say Ladder-Specification"

yeah..

After answering that we need to specify a goverment branch. (I was a novice and had no answers)

End of 2AC

Me: Cause the goverment is like a wheely-chair, it has leg, a seat, wheels, and that back post dinger. Without 1 part, it wouldn't be a chair, it would be a stool or a non-wheely chair. So I don't have to specify, we use all the goverment.

CX:
Neg: So how exacty is a chair similar to our goverment

Me: Its made up of different parts and it doesn't really do much besides sit there...


Another time after running Heidegger against their SPS nanotech...

Aff maverick: So, are you calling me racist against humanity?

Me:No, just that you
-partner interruption- (Blurry Heel) LAWL!
Partner: YES!!! YOU ARE RACIST AGAINST HUMANITY!


The Aff went on to scream RACIST!!! about 33 times in his next 2 speeches...

CX of 1AC:
Me: Can you specify exactly how many babies you save.
Them: Our evidence gives no exact number to the amount of babies.
Me: Oh so you dont actually save any babies
Them: Well our Mead evidence indicates that there would be lots of death, so that would include babies.
Me: So if i showed you that no babes would be harmed do i win the impact?
Partner of them: No babies are just one group we isolate that will die. Many other groups will die.
Me: So how many will die in all?
Them: Lots of people will die unless we get this plan passed. Without the plan everybody dies ok the world would be covered in the blood of thousands!. And does this have any importance in this debate.
Me: Why yes it does. it establishes how my K bites you in the ass.

CX of 1ac im neg
Me: so is cow power inherent
Him: i don't know
Me: What the hell
Him: i don't really care, it doesn't matter if a plans inherrent, IT SOLVE'S so could you stop asking so ridiculous questions

Thank you east bakersfield

[Mr. T]

remember when we run substantial= 60% and then we say that in cross-x they said they were substantially increasing 12%. Then they say in the 2ac that they were substantially increasing 16% so it doesnt matter, they didnt redefine or anything.

i really hope this was your neg strat:

"The aff case is like a 5 story building. Each story is called a 'stock issue'. Now, just like with a building, if one of the floors collapses, the entire building falls. This is why in cross examination my esteemed opponent lost the debate, by conceding that their case is not inherent."

Inherency wins championships.

[asian_persuasionGoh]

oh yeah we raped them..... it wasnt even fun.... they read 3 cards in the 1ac.... the guy could speak

[Mr. T]

They never said anything against our arguments, they extended their case the whole round.

[TheHutt]

This was at double octos at Logan. Neg ran a states CP, part of my aff ratifies a treaty.

C-X of 1NC

Me: How can the states pass the plan when the constitution explicitly bans them from ratifying treaties?
1N: Uh, yeah they can, do have any evidence that says they can't?
Me: Yeah, I take AP Government. Article I of the constitution says Congress is the only body with the jurisdiction to ratify treaties.
1N: So we're supposed to assume you're not lying and go with what you claim to have learned in a government class?
Me: Dude, I have a 97% in that class, and any idiot who's taken government knows that.

So my partner makes the argument it's not constitutional to have the states do it.

The 2NC then gets up and says, "Noooooo, they never read any evidence that says that, make them prove it."

Coincidentally, we happen to be in a government classroom. So grabbed a government text off the bookshelf.

My CP flow in the 1AR started with me screaming, "I WIN! SECTION I, ARTICLE 10 - No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation" and then slamming the book on the floor.

The CP, obviously, was missing from the 2NR.
