No, you didn’t use the word ‘liar’, but don’t impugn your own integrity and intelligence— or mine, or the others reading— by pretending that you didn’t intend to imply that he was utterly unreliable on all matters.

First of all, saying someone is unreliable is different than saying that they’re a liar. Very different. Immensely different. I’m really surprised that you’d conflate the two. I have lots of friends who’s information is unreliable. Hell, my mom’s unreliable in conveying information. That doesn’t mean she’s a liar.

Hell, he couldn’t even ‘lie’ about the stock, since it’s something that’s happening in the future. It has nothing to do with the ‘truth’, just with accuracy of predictions.

Second of all, I’m not sure how you can take a comment that was specifically about stocks and say that I’m trying to impugn him on all matters. I wasn’t, and I didn’t.

You’re now accusing me of something untrue— calling him a liar— and that sucks.
