And what point would that be, Chas?
Here is an exchange which occurred two weeks ago, and his post immediately followed mine. Who do you think is actually ignoring facts here to reach an overly emotional and self serving conclusion?

My throat infection may be viral rather than a party thrown by strep bacteria, but infection it still is. And the hypomania, which I still have lingering symptoms of, is not helping any. I've only been able to sleep 5 hours maximum for two months. Today and yesterday, I was only able to sleep 3 hours. Yesterday, the absence of sleep didn't affect me much, I have a feeling I'm seeing a snowball rolling down a hill. My group of anime watching friends yesterday met at a room on the second floor of a library. As we left, I was trailing behind the others, who took the stairs, while I planned on the elevator. The architects, to create a more "open space" had built the second floor about 30 feet above the first, fronting on a balcony overlooking the main floor. I stood on that balcony, looking down, wanting so much to jump, and dive face first into the tile covered concrete below. Even if I failed to die, the pain would be a reward, and they'd enfold me into the arms of hospital care and the legal lifting of personal responsibility that would accompany a second commitment for being a hazard to myself by cause of mental illness. I pulled myself away from the ledge after several minutes, but I didn't want to. I could be having a square on somebody else's dime this am instead of being sickly, angry, fearful, and unhappy. And that wasn't the only opportunity to present itself last night.
Oh well. I have deadlines, no pun intended, and with activity and goals comes the silence of the mind. I guess I'll just submerge into it and wait until my mind starts talking to me again.

We don't want you to die!
How is that even related?
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

I'm 23. Having been homeschooled k-12 and not having any friends outside of the internet during my teenage years sort of stunted me in the relationship department.
You are going to have so much fun. The world is your oyster.

The other day I was watching a rerun of Star trek TNG and Picard said "computer, Tea, earl grey, hot" The computer gave him flowers. You should give that girl flowers...

You, sir, are an arrogant, lying, deluded, manipulative dick. Your ignorant opinions are noted again, with extra emphasis on the word "ignorant."
Now, fuck off, again, for the third time.
Looking for the fourth, why not? in for a penny, in for a pound...
Arrogant? perhaps, on occasion. There will always be things which I know better than you and things which you know better than me. On the former, I may be arrogant... on the latter, I shouldn't.. but maybe, on occasion... aren't we all?
Lying? Sorry, I never lie, unless it's to deliver some sort of joke or make some (hopefully) harmless fun.
Deluded? I may be deluded about some things... but I do try to keep myself grounded on reality to the best of my ability...
Manipulative? LOL... I truly wonder where that came from...
Ignorant? YES, much so. Who isn't?
Got any more insults?

Internet fleecing... oohh... can't wait... -.-'
The reason... I think it's some snowballing misunderstanding... but yeah... I can't see it either....

I sure hope she only hates the two of us.. not all the portuguese...
I hear she likes good food...
Bacalhau à brás:
Bacalhau (codfish, some species of cod... it's salted right after fishing, old style. Before cooking, it must spend a day under water, with constant water changing to make it less salty) in small pieces with onions, very thin chips, and one or two eggs to get the yellow color in. Sprinkle some parsley, add a few olives and it's done...
Bacalhau à lagareiro:

A bunch of different parts of pork, some chorizos (there are 4 in this photo alone!), cabbages, carrots, potatoes.... all boiled.
