Yeah, including the fact that you're apparently unwilling to listen to people's reasoning behind their opinions.[/quote]
You're operating under the assumption that I was unwilling to listen to it. I was. Your reasoning was full of assumption, based on weasel words like "basically," and in its last sentence actually admitted that I might have been right.

Enough already.

I am drowning under the irony.

The Chris Lemon Dismissive Sigh (patent pending) threw me completely off.

I'm not saying I expected you to agree with it, just to have a little more maturity in responding to it.

But I still don't see how you can take Dr. Steve-O's remarks as anything less that either a demand or ordering David to do something that he just doesn't want to do anymore and a completely selfish gesture on his part.

And I think that his post assuming that every J! watcher thinks like he does was even more weaselly, if such a word exists, than mine could have been.

Again, the irony is suffocating.

Because, um, they weren't? Is it really that difficult?

Am I defending his comments? Not just no, but HELLS no.

Was it a stupid position for the good Doctor to take? Laws, yes. And I said as much at the time.

But it was not a demand.

Which pertains to this current discussion...how?

So is the condescension.

Alright, no more on this on either side. Agreed?

Well, I guess we're gonna have to agree to disagree on that one. I thought it was, you thought it wasn't.

Accusing me of using unnecessary weasel words in my post when an even better example existed, is all.

The "but he did it too!" defense? Argumentum ad Tattletale? Really?
