Yeah, I'm going to end this exchange in this post. Bear in mind that I was not the one who began the putdown fest, so don't go playing the poor tortured victim here. I don't get preemptively snarky with anyone,...


Uh, dude, if you didn't start this putdown fest, then who did? Your memory isn't that great either, fortunately on message boards all things are recorded, check out your preemptive snarkiness posted on Sunday, November 11, 2007 at 1:01 AM.


... and in fact my first post on this topic had nothing to do with you. To be fair, maybe that's what you thought because my first post came right after a post of yours.


To be fair, maybe I thought that not only because your first post in this exchange came right after my own, but consisted entirely of a quote by quote from my post, which included some slightly "snarky" comments about some of the things I had said, to which I responded "snarkily" only to your "snarky" bits and left the rest respectful. I may have been a bit harsh on your "Yoda/Chinese speak", but you yourself were using it as a way of putdown.

Anyway, my mistake was responding to an exessive quote-and-address-every-sentence response, which usually evolves into pointless time consuming arguments, where each user is on the look out for the slightest typo or gramatical mistake so they can prove how ignorant the other person is. Pretty rediculous. I should not have sunken to that level. Only reason I kept going was because I felt a bit attacked, but I should have let it slide.

And all I have learned from this exchange is that you would make a damn good politician.
