monkeydelarge: (you are calling me an asshole, right?)....
Not specifically. More of , there seems to be an a-hole in the room and you are shocked at the notion that it just might be you. It's fine if you want to be a straight shooter that says what he means and all of that, but someone that is going to be blunt, needs to understand that he will be treated with the same kind of bluntness which isn't something you seem to be willing to accept. Does that make you an ahole? Meh. Don't know, and am unsure I care. If I was going to label you I would say you are playing victim which probably doesn't sound any better.
At this point you can soon over being insulted again, or you can try to make use of some of what else I said about how you are never going to change peoples' minds, or find any resolution in fighting. You just aren't to peoples' liking in this context, and nothing you say or do will make it any better. You can just accept it and move on, or keep banging your head against the wall making it worse. There are plenty of people here that are willing to feed your outrage if that is what you really want. It's not our life so we don't care how worked up you get, how spectacularly you melt down. You're the one that will have to deal with it when the browser closes, and I assure you it's not in your best interest to keep participating in this thread.
Right may be right and worth fighting over, but fighting over small stuff like something as silly as what you meant when you said that thing isn't worth waring over.
And in my attempt to be plain I do realize I am being somewhat unkind, and for that I apologize. It is not my intent insulting, just plain. I also apologize if it sounds haughty or similar, but I'm not sure how one really says anything above without it being a little bit on the preachy side. Perhaps it would be better for me to let it be as well.
