But you do. I am not here to be your grasshopper every time you get annoyed by my flaws.
It really is ok if you let things go once and a while. This is not a matter of national security and neither you or I have control of the nuclear codes.
Relax.
I’ll dicker ye a fair dicker: I’ll stop correcting you if you can remember a polite request I made to you two years ago (which you snarkily threw back in my face) and act on it.
Boru
2 years ago? I cant even remember what I had for breakfast this morning.
Boru, I really can't crawl into your brain and decide for you what you think. But I do not always disagree with you. I simply think you do not understand me. But I am not going to kill myself trying to please you every time you disagree with me.
If we are both going to expect the other to be whom we are, which we are, then maybe the middle ground isn't a bloodthirsty line in the sand, but we simply have different personalities.
I am pretty damned sure if either of us were a victim of a car accident, and the other witnessed it, we'd give the other aid and not say " fuck them, I don't like them."
I know I irritate the hell out of you, and yes, you annoy me. But this is the internet, it is not landing on the beaches of Normandy. You and I are not the Allies vs the access of evil. I do not see you as Hitler or Mussolini or Stalin. It is not your legal obligation to like me, or my legal obligation to like you. But get real, if either of us truly thought the other was a direct threat to the other, we wouldn't simply be fussing on a website at each other.
You are not my enemy, I have never considered you one. But I also am not going to blindly agree or ignore everything you say.
