Based on the comments received, I conclude one of the following must be true:
1. I have never posted a single "good point". (Not one? Ever? This is patently absurd.)
2. I have posted good points but they have gone over the heads of the respondents to this thread. (I think this may be true of many forum members.)
3. I have posted good points but no one is willing to publicly admit this in front of their friends here in the forum. (I think this is true of the majority.)
(Saying "we've heard it all before" is not a relevant response since I did not ask whether you thought I had posted anything original but whether I had posted anything that you judged to be a good argument.)
Feel free to insert your own objections, inadequate rebuttals, etc. in the space below. (I probably won't believe you since it's not likely you were honest originally.)
I think there's another option you completely forgot.
4. Some people have never given enough of a shit to read any of your threads other than this one.
I certainly fall into that category. I was willing to write off your lack of humility as a symptom of the Dunning-Krueger effect, since you certainly seem to carry yourself like a fool that thinks himself wise, but considering the existence of this very thread and the lofty and dismissive nature of your quoted post, I'm leaning more towards arrogance and pride as the motivating factors. Just couldn't view yourself as anything other than the hottest show in town, could you?
Sorry, you weren't, at least certainly not for me. I was never interested enough to book a ticket to your performances.
