Whether I knew what you like was not the point. The reaction I got from it was.
But you have no clue what I like, so calling what I like boring was nothing more than a potshot

No that is a matter of interpretation, in which you chose to not get the message that I had intended to deliver even after the fact that I explained it.

Yeah.
This seems to be more a thread about whether you should come into a thread you have no interest in and complain about how boring it is to you.
Personally I think that's a waste of time and a bit of mental masturbation - but it seems to titillate Strangelove. (Is there a Smiley for bemused?)
Guess strange love is an accurate description...

Touched a sensitive point, have I?
I'm curious, which was it?
-The complaining about stuff you have no interest in?
-The wasting of time?
-The mental masturbation?
-The odd titillation?
And ordering me to shut it on a thread where you are you are arguing so vociferously for your right to express an opinion again leaves me bemused...
Originally posted by DreampantherThere is no mental masturbation, no odd titillation. Your blatant mischaracterization of me is what pisses me off. It's not an opinion that you're expressing. It's an insult.

So? It does its job. The purpose of a car is to get from one place to another. Any other meaning that other people try to give it is superfluous and stupid
This is an insult.

This is an opinion.

I said the meaning that people try to give it is stupid, not the people doing it. Get your facts straight doped
Fact: You wrote: "The purpose of a car is to get from one place to another. Any other meaning that other people try to give it is superfluous and stupid"
Fact: You therefore contend that only the meaning you attach to a car has worth, and that any other meaning people choose to attach to a car is "superfluous and stupid".
Fact: You therefore have no regard for any meaning or opinion besides your own.
Fact: You therefore imply your contempt for this forum, since this forum was established to invite people to share their different opinions and values.
Are my facts straight now?
