Yes clearly that is exactly what I fucking asked about since it has 0% to do with the claim you made. That makes so so much sense.

Really putting that private school education to work today.

I'm going to need you to put your big boy thinking cap on for a second. What do you think happens to uniforms that kids grow out of?

And I want a fucking citation that every single private school on earth has a second hand shop affiliated with it.

Guess critical thinking isn't taught at private school

If you understood critical thinking at all you would know what you are asking for is impossible. What I'm trying to figure out is if you are too dumb to know that, too dumb to realize your gotcha is not one, or both.

Let's look at my statement "private schools have used uniform sales". The question ~~you~~ an intelligent person would ask is at what point does the number of schools that do not have used uniform sales invalidate that statement. Not even the biggest mouth breather would claim that only one school that does not offer a used uniform sale invalidates the statement, they would be adept enough to notice that the word all is missing.

Sorry your claim is difficult to support. You can hang out with the aliens and lock ness people now

If you were more than barely literate you be able to comprehend what I wrote.

Guess that taught name-calling in your private school vs evidence

If you don't want people to think you're barley literate don't give them reasons to believe so.
