It was a lot more than that. And you deserved every syllable... A syllable is a unit of spoken language, by the way.

Here, Ill explain it to you. The person I replied to said that using simple words like "nice" was lazy, and that people should use lots of big words instead. I, took issue with that, and expressed it by with malicious compliance. ie, being wildly over the top in doing what was asked. Are you getting it now? Do you see the joke yet? Do you really not get the point I was making?

That's so dissapointing. My hilarious response went way over your head. Here I'll explain it to you.

Ad Hominem is a form of logical fallacy whereby one attacks the person giving the argument rather than the argument itself. You did nothing but attack my character, so it really wasn't anything more than that.
A common meme in arguments is when, rather than give any counter point, one just points out the logical fallacies displayed by one's opponent.

Also they never said it had to be big words, you have just conflated big with precise.

What you failed to understand was that 'nice' is not a precise word, there are usually more contextually relevant ways to describe yourself. E.g. tell them where you volunteer.

I did understand your joke, but I thought the faulty premises deserved mocking. I do now think I should have just deconstructed your entire argument from the start though.
