This is great rhetorical technique here, designed to make
one quiver.

Do not mistake it for the often misunderstood technique of insulting
your opponent, in order to make them angry to make a stupid reply.

Oh no.  This is the most excellent and ancient art of attacking a
strawman.

You take someone who does *not* believe something.  For instance,
someone who
does not believe the shit tastes good when served to you by a permit
holder.

Then you lambast them heavily, as though they did believe that shit
tastes good when served to you by a permit holder.

You win three ways, vis.: you win the argument; you beat your opponent;
and you get to look like a tough guy.

Not mine, but then I don't own them, and never have.  How about you? 
No, no, the other end!

So true.  Now all you have to do is find someone who disagrees with you.

No, I don't give head.

Again, you need to find an opponent.  Badly.  I think you may break
something otherise.  Take some deep breaths.

If you come on up to New York, I am sure that something can be
arranged.  Yes, I know someone with the key to Macy's window.  And there
are no end of private contractors who I am sure would be eager to
substitute for my part.

They are much prettier too.  And very strong.
