Reason:

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way that a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyways. Because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

Reason:

I am going to explain something here. Pro says 'that' and doesn't say 'Con'. 'That' could be referring to any debater he's seeing at that moment in time'.

This debate's description is trolling. To create spam guaranteed tie is trolling and toxic if others catch on to it being okay. Pro loses because of grammar. Con only had to admit it seemed that way so even if Pro had said 'Con' instead of 'that' I don't get how Pro won this debate.

Certainly, the shortest-ever debate of 15 words deserves some credit. Extra points for sticking to the script.

Reason:

There was some clash back and forth, but at the end of the debate I was left wanting by both parties. I don't think Pro met his burden of proof beyond his assertion, and con came back with a one-liner. Good effort debaters!
