I think it was fairly obvious, since I was replying to one person's post and quoted it at the top. I fail to see how my words could have been interpreted as a generalization of everyone else here.
I thought Pippy was being serious. She related my question about fiction writing to religious intolerance, which rubbed me the wrong way and I worded my response with perhaps a bit more severity than the situation called for. Not to be rude, but I don't see what any of this has to do with you, honestly.
Though I agree you were responding to pippy: why should Shell B's responding be thusly invalid? If I ask Satan, "Is the moon made of green cheese?", and while Satan is pondering the question, King Albert says, "Only if it is true that cheese is not made by men."... should I consider Albert's response as to be ignored simply because he is not Satan?
Pippy attests to being a man, though there is a mild forum conspiracy that pippy is indeed a woman.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
