Several inches up I made the post about Palin without thinking about anyone's personality or anything to do with an individual on this board. The very first thing you did was(I guess)playfully attack Howey. Where I come from that's childish and extremely non productive on a forum where we want people to participate. I get the impression that you don't think I ever have any idea what I'm talking about or that if I type, I'm automatically wrong before it's read.
I would hardly call it an attack on Howey. I don't think Howey would consider it an attack on Howey. And it was not without context. You made a remark about an issue that has been commented on here on this board several times.
Doesn't bother me since I've tried at least once to never deal with you again but I do like you and feel like there's more to you than what is expressed on forums. You come across to me as terminally right, meaning that you're desire for argument and partisanship trumps all else. I'm pressed to think of anyone else that hasn't indicated a growth of some sort by what they write in the last decade. It's like even with all of our differences I believe that we could hypothetically enjoy a cup of joe together and discuss and laugh. But online I'm still seeing the same person I did when we first met.
Look, if you don't want to deal with me, just let me know and I won't respond to any of your topics or posts. Frankly, I thought I was doing you a favor to try to show interest in some of your subjects, without being snarky. And given the nature of the topics that interest you, that's not always easy. I've tried to treat you and your obsessions somewhat seriously, which is why I've been asking what I thought were pointed questions relating to your issues. But I'm not going to work overtime on it.
