That is my main disagreement with you every time, that you state things as flat fact, and will brook no opposition, rather than accepting at any time that what you write is your opinion and others might disagree.
Everything that we post on the board is inferred to be opinion. I tend to speak in absolutes as a stylistic choice, but there have been numerous times I have mentioned that it is the "only way I can see it." It is MY reality.
Will I challenge other people saying that I see my reality incorrectly when I say I consider life a dreary, bleak, and wretched place? Oh yes. You're challenging the intrinsic truths of ME, what I've experienced, what my life is.
And that doesn't change the many other things you have said about me, or what I have said about you. It doesn't change your mockery in threads even before this.
Quote:
I'd suggest you quit while you're behind rather than dig yourself in any deeper.
You're still not listening. Digging myself in deeper is the point. As it has been for many years now.
Nice threat though. Especially the vaguely implied consequences. You honestly think I have anything left to lose on this board? You think I don't know that most people think the way you do about me?
Not engaging you wasn't cowardice, Niki, it was a last ditch effort at civility that has now completely eroded.

"...your mockery whenever I showed up in a thread even before this." Oh, for heaven's sake, DO stop lying why don't you.
ETA: Ah, I see you edited. There's no threat or veiled anything, Byte; it was a snark, nothing more. You take things to such extremes, when it's really not necessary. What possible "consequences" do you think I could threaten you with on the internet??? What anyone here thinks of you is their business, I don't keep score, sorry.

I fixed it before you posted, because yes, sometimes you offer unwanted and completely unwarranted praise or apologies in threads that are as painful as everything else you do towards me and which I'm sure you don't mean.
But for all you shout lies lies lies, for all you say that you don't hate me, your actions and your attitude says differently.

What happened to "I'll hold whatever opinion about you that I want to, and say whatever I want to"? That's only true for you, apparently? Your inference is I'm deliberately "hurting" you by doing writing anything positive about you. Got it. Don't understand it, but whatever floats your boat. I don't "praise" people; I express my opinion, agree or disagree, and remark on well-thought-out comments by others. You know, like it's a forum board, like everyone else does.
ETA: as to your addition, I think you don't fully understand the meaning of the word "hate". I'll leave you to continue hating me, but you can't make me hate you, sorry.

Understand it perfectly well. I also see you're still saying sorry when you don't mean it. Really throws into question the rest of the statement it's paired with.

I'll throw a party and inform the state capital. I have been given your leave. *Bows and curtsies hugs and kisses*

If you're going to embrace that attitude - don't be whiny when people get sick of it.
"Goram it kid, let's frak this thing and go home! Engage!"

No, I honestly don't think you do. There are all kinds of things in between "love" and "hate", but you seem to go straight from "friend" to "hate". I don't HATE anyone here, and if I were gonna blow "hate" on anyone, don't you think it would be Kane or some of those who have wished my death? Hating me only hurts you, which is sad, that's all.
And you shouldn't try to pretend you don't understand "sorry" as a snark, nobody's gonna buy it.

I guess you just happen to have pissed me off enough that I put you in the special category for people I just can't forgive. People who I don't talk to, which is why I usually don't talk to you.

Your snarky sorries and backhanded apologies have exactly the same sound as your claims that you're only "frustrated." I don't expect anyone else around here will believe me. But you and I know, and that's what matters.

Well yeah. Still the point.

And still played out and tiresome.
But you seem to deliberately miss my point. If you're gonna act like that - don't be a crybaby when people actually respond to the behavior.
