It wasn't a meme, and you don't seem willing to change your mind about it. Let's just say that anecdotes are a weak strategy in debate.
Anecdotes are not evidence. The primary weakness of anecdotes as evidence is that they are uncontrolled; technically, they are non-systematic observations. There is a considerable risk of subconscious data mining, and they are subject to confirmation biases, memory effects, and multiple other cognitive biases. There also is a high risk of confounding variables. Therefore, we cannot make any reliable assumptions or show causation from anecdotes.

This is reddit and social media. Virtually nothing stated can be considered reliable information or assumptions. Yes my opinion is different than the other person I was texting with. Bold of you to assume that one incident proves Im unwilling to change my mind.
I wonder why you would feel the need to insert yourself in a conversation between two folks….it’s almost as if you are purposefully being argumentative and contrary and seeking an argument.
See what I did there?
