Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 2774507, member: 40"] So you got upset about a clip of Captain Kirk shouting "Khan?" Okay... I probably invoked that to poke fun at how indignantly confrontational your post to me was, but must have deleted it to keep things friendly. Contrast that with you taking screen shots and apparently keeping tabs on what I post -- bizarre. Here's what all of these seems like orangecuse -- you don't like me as a poster, so you feel justified in making ad hominem attacks. There was some fairly innocuous stuff that was tossed around during the game thread, but you overreacted to it because -- as you've painstakingly pointed out -- you don't like me. You chose to get offended by my posts to others, and then repeatedly make mocking posts poking fun of what I said. And then you did it again the following day. And while you lecture me about how different ideas can get exchanged in a game thread that is often heated and emotional, you take offense to me expressing an opinion in that thread--an opinion that lots of posters I respect agreed with in that thread, by the way--because, again, you aren't predisposed to like anything that I post. So for others, it's fine to express their opinions and disagree in the game thread. But with me, you're justified hypocritically deriding and calling me names, all while condemning me for being truculent like you're being. For the record to point out that these past two days, it's been YOU who's been antagonistic, and smarmy, and truculent, and condescending whatever other thesaurus words you'd like to go with. Orangecuse, I remember that mass shooting thread, and I actually remember that exchange you reference. I also remember being surprised with your overreaction -- then as now -- over me asking you whether you knew the difference between semi-automatic versus automatic weapons. It wasn't a belligerent exchange, it was you reading into my post and making a false attribution about my intent, again because you were already predisposed to dislike me. Actually, thank you for explaining -- that makes a lot of sense now. I'm anti-gun, by the way -- maybe that fed into your negative reaction. Whatever. I'm not going to get into politics on the football board -- this is a pointless exchange with someone who isn't looking for common ground, just trolling for an argument that has been largely unspoken and apparently one sided, apparently for many years. I reread that Louisville game thread after your last post, and the "engagement" between us you are complaining about was not remotely heated and barely confrontational -- you just chose to view it that way. Ditto my post earlier in this thread to you. Put me on ignore, and I'll do the same -- problem solved. [/QUOTE]
