What is ploy?

A pity ploy (n.) is a term used when someone fishes for affection, compliments, or a free pass to excuse how they act by self degrading themselves to make you feel bad for them. Pity= is what the person wants from you and ploy= is the fact that they came up with a motive and plan to get pity from others. Ergo, the term pity ploy is formed. Don't be this person it's narcissistic.

Ploy - what is it?

A run-around. An employee is lured into being a company man and unpaid manager, as well as doing unpleasant jobs, with the promise that at some point they will be able to do a particularly valued job. That point never comes.

Source: Disneyworld. The promise is "do this dirty job and you can be ... Pluto"

"So I watched over the office while the Old Man was gone and told him everything everyone was doing - AND handled all his mail - and he still took Janet to the expo thing at Vale, and I'm working month-end accounts all weekend. Total Pluto Ploy."

What does "ploy" mean?

An illusion of fear created by democrats to make liberal policies come to

action.

Global warming- Scientists say October 2009 was coldest on record in North

America. However, Al Gore go to the UN during a blizzard wanting to save trees

so he uses the global warming card as a liberal ploy.

Swine flu- The democrats are making swine flu seem like a larger international

crisis than the black plague. No more deaths will come of swine flu than regular

flu. In spring 2010, liberals will use swine flu as a success story in a liberal

ploy for universal health care.

2009 Stimulus package- Obama wanted to reinvest in the economy through

infrastructure and jobs. However he invested in millions in saving animals in

California (Pelosi country). What a liberal ploy.

Ploy - what does it mean?

Michaelov ploy - Logical Fallacy

An argument, or point within an argument which revolves around completely altering the topic of argument and using (twisting) semantics (meanings of words) as a means to prove (force) a point which either was never disputed or is so off the wall (for example, Maths doesn't exist) that to argue it would be to slaughter logic on the spot.

Often relies on the lack of universal, metaphysical definitions for entirely human concepts to argue that either it does not exist at all or that we cannot discuss them without omniscience, or similar faeces.

To effectively execute a Michaelov ploy one must 'quickswitch' the argument right at the end back to the original argument to make it seem as if they had effectively defeated a point.

It is a logical fallacy because the point made by a user of the michaelov ploy has no sort of logic within it.

Bill: I think religion is a force for evil
Ben: I have an issue with that <michaelov ploy> Since the word think means to have a mind, and a mind is nothing without a universal definition of evil, how can we truly say that we even exist? Without existing we can't say religion is a force for evil
Bill: Wait..... what?

---- A more extreme version ----

Matthias: I object to homosexuals because I feel it is unnatural.
Michaelov: Without a universal definition of 'object' then you cannot object since you do not know the true nature of a physical object whilst in the universal realm of the object itself. Gays for president!
Matthias: o. O

Ploy - definition

(pluh-oy)

A creature possessing infinite evil and unparalleled sex appeal. Although normally mild of temperament, the Ploy is highly excitable, and may become agitated when presented with somebody she regards as stupid. She typically functions in a highly logical manner, which makes her able to perform tasks with inhuman efficiency. However, this results in a tendency to view other human beings as mere commodities. As the ambassador of evil, the Ploy is commonly thought responsible for some of the most infamous crimes in human history, such as the holocaust, the downfall of the Galactic Senate, and also possibly the death of Harry Potter's parents.

Ploy (n.)
Don't be bad, or the Ploy will come and get you.
