You must be elated that you found an opportunity to indulge the chip on your shoulder from our last conversation (given the length of my response, it'll be easy to for you to reverse this accusation and feign apathy; that is, if you're still playing by the same discursive playbook). I know anything more than one sentence might be dismissed by you as undue concern (or whatever deflection crops up this time). But if you actually want to
talk about this instead of making another brief barb and being on your way, then, first: unwarranted use of "hectoring," given what that word entails. Second: with regards to that first "conversation," I have my doubts that you would have been receptive to a super polite message and followed up with anything like a change in your posting habits. But maybe I'm wrong. At any rate, you're partly right: I could have been nicer about it. Still, in that context, you said something stupid and it's not exactly surprising that you got a negative response (i.e., precisely the kind of thing you were trying to provoke, perhaps? Hmm).
Get over my irritated reply and adjust the nonsense because it's sensible, not because someone asked nicely. Sorry, but I'm not a fan of terse cynicism (or other forms). I mean, you're also the guy who once repeatedly put down another user for being too enthusiastic about an upcoming movie. Kind of odious and hateful and,
surprisingly, that kind of attitude rubs me the wrong way. Imagine that.
