@NY Shooter
NYShooter: "While Joan certainly doesn’t need me, or anyone else for that matter, to defend her, I believe the key word in her response was “annoying;” as in, “YOU’RE annoying.”
Thanks for the translation, but that was evident from Joan's post.
NYShooter: "...you have nothing of value to say, nor do you add anything of value to the discourse."
You are entitled to your opinion. I could probably say the same about you. What have you contributed of value?
NYShooter: "The one thing you do have, and you have it perfected like no one I’ve ever seen, is a cut ’n paste tool……on steroids."
It's just my style. Makes it easier to remember everything I want to reply to if it's there in front of me. It also helps prevent me from misstating somebody's words or intent, since their words are right there in front of me while I'm responding.
NYShooter: "You seem to have devoted your life to dissecting comments by people who hold slightly different views than your own, line by line (as the defense lawyers did in the Rodney King trial) and then answer them with comments that are incontrovertible."
You're accusing me of taking people's words out of context, or cutting them into pieces that do not represent the points they're making. That's not true at all, though. I try to make sure I'm responding to the person's intended meaning.
