How are you making them?
On my Samsung phone I simply hold my finger on any chosen number⁰¹²³⁴⁵⁶⁷⁸⁹ for a couple of seconds and it appears in the text as a superscript⁶.
I did it accidentally a few times, so I just fiddled around until I discovered how to do it intentionally.
One of the times I did it accidentally was in Message 590 and was subsequently accused of lying about using a quote. I pleaded my innocence but to no avail.

I'm not expecting an apology anytime soon.

Re: Dredge thinks not knowing everything is not knowing anything
You knew what you were doing to cause those superscripts, but claimed you didn't know what was causing it. Now you have confessed that you did indeed know.
Withholding necessary information in order to increase acrimony is troll behavior. Because of that, you do not deserve an apology, but we do deserve one from you.
You should be trying to build a reputation for acting in good faith rather than digging your troll hole even deeper.

I see it as much ado about nothing.

You're shooting yourself in the foot by admitting that you DO know how to do it. You're also admitting that you're a troll by going on and on about it. You'd be better off just shutting the fuck up about it.

it's easy. just go over to your gas stove and stand on a chair while you drop your pants and bend your ass over a front burner while you turn the burner on. Then, holding your position, light a match over the burner.
Now that's real gaslighting!

Re: Dredgings: google confirms my guess
Because they are not venomous snakes. Are you truly that stupid? Or just a pitiful troll?

What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence. -Christopher Hitchens

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

If your viewpoint has merits and facts to back it up why would you have to lie?

Was I wrong about you going on and on about it? You're making my case.

You already responded arrogantly to that statement in Message 908 and now you're admitting you didn't understand it? How many feet can you get in your mouth at once?

All depends. He's from Australia, so maybe he's part Tasmanian Devil? I saw a photo of one and its mouth went from shoulder to shoulder. I had a dog like that once.
