Again, why? I've even hilighted where I've been wrong or unfair to you in my comments, repeatedly, but you continue to attack someone that has been nothing but, at worst, mildly self indulgent in one reply. But you're openly hostile, even when I'm agreeing with you. I doubt you're so jaded you can't even claim victory, but I think you've been so blinded by your hatred that you can't even recognize capitulation or engage with an attempt to start a constructive dialog. So why do you comment on a public forum? What's the root of why you despise me so much?
I don't hate or despise you, I'm just annoyed and exasperated by your histrionics and stubborn insistence. Go bother someone else.
I'm going to point out that you started this conversation, but I'm really not trying to be churlish by doing so. I just truly think you've thrown an assumption of bad faith onto me, and have approached this whole interaction from that perspective. And while it's easy to characterize someone on the internet as attention seeking, consider that I only have something to gain by having a civil conversation with you.
