In general, Simon, I find you're a little too abrasive, and not even tastefully so.
If you want to dismantle me, do it in a way that requires a certain amount of wit and tact, otherwise I find myself only amused at how you took my post so seriously and let it burrow under your skin.
The fact that you'd get genuinely insulted over my dry, angsty little retort shows exactly what kind of person you are. Whether or not our tastes in humor differ, I stand by what I said that your overall reaction and whatever negreps you may or may not have doled out were unnecessary. If you can't take a joke, then perhaps you shouldn't post in a thread where the point is to take a joke and run with it until it goes "way out of control". Sounds reasonable, yes? If you don't believe me, check out
this link and get back to me.
I'm not going to start a flame war, so I'll wait for your response to this and then drop it.
