A debate where people are discussing which group of people is ruining society the most, special snowflakes because of their oversensitivity, and edgelords because of their overinsensitivity, without realizing that it's technically both of them who have done the most damage.
Is there any reason to have an edgelord vs. snowflake debate? They're both equally toxic and have been ruining our culture for years now.

policy debate

Two-person team debate in which one team (the affirmative) generally proposes a policy which they advocate throughout the brave. The negative then argues against the affirmative case and plan on several levels - procedural, kritikal, and policy. Constructive speeches (2 per team) last 8 minutes and are punctuated by an additional 3-minute cross-examination period in which the opposing team asks questions to clarify and discredit the speaker's positions. Rebuttals (again, 2 per team) last 5 minutes and have no cross-examination period.

On the national circuit, and many other "champ" or "varsity" tournaments, delivery rate is extremely rapid, resulting in an atmosphere that emphasizes strategy and good argumentation over delivery and persuasion.
My parents used to get upset over the time I spent on policy debate - cutting cards, travelling to tournaments, and such.

debate hangover

A debate hangover occurs the day after a long debate tournament. Competitors and coaches spent most of Friday and all of Saturday competing or judging, so on Sunday, they are completely wiped out. Exhaustion, lack of voice, and sickness are common signs of a debate hangover. Gatorade (to help cleanse the system of caffeine, junk food, etc.) and rest are the most effective cures.
Steve: "Hey man, that was some debate tournament this weekend. I feel like crap now!"
