And your response to that argument runs something like this:
"No one is responding to me the way I think they should, they are not
talking about what I want them to talk about, so I'm going to pout, get
petty and vindictive, and characterize their responses as childish with a
dismissive tone of voice."

Just thought you might enjoy being being characterized as much as those you
characterize do. -JRC
