Muhammad Ali's star is on a wall

THERE IS ONLY ONE! WILL YOU FIGHT? OR WILL YOU PERISH HERE?

Did you say yours first? I didnt see it...

We posted really close to eachother. Within seconds

Well they clearly didn't mind.

Just because people acquiesce to your unreasonable demands doesn't mean they aren't unreasonable demands.

Oh no! Muhammad Ali wanted his star to hang on a wall so it wouldn't be stepped on! How horrible!

No one's saying it was horrible, don't try to move the goal posts.

Then what's the problem? He asked them to move it and they did. It's done.

The problem is that people make stupid requests like that, and put up with stuff like that.

You make it seem like people do stuff like this all the time, every day.

On average I'm sure they do. At any given point in time I'm sure there's' someone making a selfish request, and at the same time someone is accepting a selfish request.

No I'm talking about putting signs on walls. You make it seem like it's a terrible omen to do this and that everyone does it.

"You make it seem like it's a terrible omen to do this and that everyone does it."
I'm pretty sure I didn't do that. Could you elaborate?

The way you are complaining about this one celebrity for having his star on the wall makes it seem like you think this is an often occurrence.

Huh. Well, I still don't know what I said to imply that, but I don't think that.

"The problem is that people make stupid requests like that, and people put up with it."

I didn't means that specific request, I meant stupid requests in general.

...so, a "repeated occurrence"?

No, I mean like any request you can think of, whether it's related to the walk of fame or not, that's stupid.

What other examples can you give?

...Well asking for examples of people asking for stupid things seems kind of stupid. I'm starting to think you taking the piss out of me.

*shrug*
You made a statement, and now you're not even standing by it.

...Which statement is that?

That stupid requests happen often.

I do stand by that, though. Are you honestly of the opinion that there aren't a lot of unreasonable people in the world?

No, there definitely are. It's that you can't give any other examples. What else is as unreasonable as this?

Christ, fine.
Your friend asks to borrow your car when he knows you need it for work.
A costumer wants an item for free because it doesn't have a price tag on it.
A man wants a police officer to shot his neighbor's dog because it barks all the time.
That's just off the top of my head, is that good?

No, I mean actual situations with actual people that actually exist.
Renowned people around the world, not random hypothetical ideas of yours.
Also, if it doesn't have a price tag, why wouldn't it be free?

Why do they have to be renowned?

Because examples of people that don't exist don't hold any weight and thus don't help your case.

What case? You've already conceded that there are unreasonable people. What else do you think I'm asserting?

I never conceded; I asked for your input.

You said "there definitely are.". Did you not mean that there definitely are a lot of unreasonable people in the world?

Sure, maybe I conceded, but you still can't give any real-world examples.

Why do I need to?

To further elaborate the point you've gone to lengths to defend.

But I don't have to defend it, as you've already conceded it.

But you went to lengths to state it. Now you don't want to defend?

No, because I don't have to anymore.
