I got a bit short with you, toward the end, due to your condescending replies, but that's not the same as being a jerk. Maybe you just aren't reading my posts from all the angles. They are a journey, not a single, unbranching path with a set destination

All joking aside, I was actually hoping you'd just clarify for me, and after that, trying to explain why your post didn't make much sense to me since you didn't seem to be getting it. And since you yourself admitted to Random Thoughts below that you could have explained yourself better, I don't know where this "my post was just fine as is, you're the one with the problem" suddenly came from.

Honestly, Roland, I don't always agree with your posts, but in the past, I've always been able to at least understand them. But your most recent posts (here and in other threads) make you sound like a stoner trying to be philosophical. If this is some new posting style you're trying out, it's coming across as confusing and pretentious. If you disagree or simply don't care, that's your right, but you should at least be aware that it may not be coming across the way you intend it to.

The last word is all yours.
