Warbler is a very persistent guy. I think I am too, but not to the level that he is. He’s also a very literal guy. Frink, and to a certain extent, dahmage, are very sarcastic and satirical people. These are two very different personalities, and therefore, they can clash at times. I’m not sure how I fit into this whole spectrum — some days I feel more like a Warbler; somedays, a Frink.

Warbler can also have a tendency to over-do things at times. It can feel like, at certain times, a sort of obsessive–compulsive tendency. Warbler also, very often, doesn’t get the joke well. This can lead him to get frustrated at times when he isn’t getting the responses he expects.

All of this conspired to create a perfect storm of sorts. Warbler may have well-been completely unaware of just how many *sigh*s he was doing, but alas, other people noticed. Frink may have been in an especially irritable mood, and then the conflict started.
