"See, this is what I'm talking about..who was I putting down? I didn't shit on ANYBODY in any of those sentences man. You're just willfully misunderstanding what I'm writing, and it gets frustrating to watch you pretty much spin these posts into something where I'm picking on people for not having the same opinion as me."
"Jesus. He's the head of marketing. Paying attention to whatever he says is like asking Ari Fleischer for an honest opinion on Bush. It's not gonna happen. You're better off not even reading any sort of press release or interview with Ward's name in it if you don't want to just get pissed off. Reading anything Jim Ward says, especially if you want the originals, isn't going to do anything but get you really cheezed off."
So I suppose you used "Jesus" as a prayer, rather than showing frustration who were commenting on his statement? Let's not forget your statements about people in the thread getting pissed/cheezed off. Seems to me all you are doing is getting pissed/cheezed off now, and yet you are still here.

"look at those posts again, man. I'm AGREEING with you people. At length."

...and after the fact. Notice that I have raised no qualms about your second paragraph. Had that been all your post consisted of, there would be no problem.

"So obviously you thought I was trying to change someone's opinion with my posts..."

And you obviously thought that the posts prior to yours were a waste of time, and people were needlessly getting upset over nothing. The "Jesus" added some emphasis on that point. Are you now telling me you weren't trying to stop people from posting as they were? If not, then what, exactly, was the ""Jesus" for.....?
"You're looking for me to try to defend Ward and change your opinion on him"

LOL. Please point out where I stated this in any way, shape, or form. I was simply commenting on your need to put down people who want to comment on Ward's statement. "Join in", indeed. For someone who is very opinionated, you apparently had a problem with other people giving their opinion of Jim Ward.

"how can I be wrong about that when you blatantly ASK me a question like that."

A rhetorical question. I would think that someone who knew how to spell "sequitir" would understand the distinction.
"For someone who is very opinionated, you apparently had a problem with other people giving their opinion of Jim Ward."

"That was in the EXACT same paragraph where you DENY that you thought I had a problem with people's opinion of Jim Ward."

See above.

"I don't have a problem with it at all. I essentially AGREE with it, which is pretty evident if you simply read the posts and take them at face value."

...and ignore the implied slams against the people bringing up and commenting on his statements in the first place.

"My only reason for posting was to help write him off as a PR shill who probably doesn't even BUY the shit he's shoveling"

Which could have been done without the initial pot shots.

"We're pretty much on the same side here, so why are you hell bent on being a dickhead about it and constantly picking a fight with me over it?"

You have a habit of coming into a thread with both guns blazing, and it's getting tiresome. Count to 10 before hitting the SUBMIT button next time. I know that new posters like to make a grand entrance to make a name for themselves (your username speaks volumes towards this), but it really isn't necessary. Really...
