If one says one is sucks at everything, does that mean that one is good at sucking therefore proving the statement is a fallacy? My brain is wrapped in thought.

You can suck at sucking, otherwise I'd be working the streets right now. :plain

Well they don't suck at sucking so they suck at everything but sucking. So therefore it is wrong....I think. :confused

You can't suck at everything, because then your good at sucking, and if your good at something, then you don't suck at EVERYTHING, just at everything EXCEPT sucking.

Everything in itself is a fallacy, so therefore any statement encompassing the words anything, everything, or nothing are automatically false due to the imperfect nature of human beings.

 

EXAMPLE: In an Addam's Family (the cartoon) episode a while back, the father (I forget everyone's name but Lurch, Thing, It, and Wednesday) who was good at everything attempted to fail, because he had never done so before. He tried various activites and did his best to fail but could not do so. He was discouraged because he would succeed even when he wanted to fail, but in succeeding in his every attempt to fail he inevitably failed at failing.

A philosophical question answered with a cartoon.

 

Who knew.

Complicated questions often have simple answers.

This is the best thread I have ever read.
