LOL, you say that as if I'm already gone, but causing a spectacular fuss on the way out!
I don't intend to cause any trouble and hope to avoid any. Truth be told, I mentioned it up front in the hopes that people would understand me a little bit beforehand, not because I expect there to be any problems, but in the hopes that it would help avoid any. I really can come off sounding like a smug ass sometimes, but it's not a "holier than thou" (yeah, I used it!) attitude or in any way intentional. I hear the sentences in my head as I'm typing and the voice inflection is there, so I really just don't see it when I'm typing and it comes out like I'm a smug prick. In my head as I'm typing, that's not how it sounds. But I freely admit I do come off that way sometimes.
Anyway, I'm hoping if you expect me to be a prick to begin with you'll be a little more forgiving when it comes off that way and understand that's not what I meant. I usually have no problem admitting when I'm wrong. Well, it can be a little tough, but I try to look at things objectively and admit, first to myself, then to anyone else involved when I'm wrong. I always say it's better to lose an argument because the winner doesn't learn anything.
