Re: Religion was left-handedness

Well, the Legend certainly seems to have shut down the conversation!

If you're referring to me, that's just one of my many talents. The epithet "the Legend," however, is especially ill fitting. You seem to have me confused with someone else. Perhaps Harry Potter. 

Using such a sobriquet displays a very odd sort of bitterness. But of what? The fact that there are nearly two decades of history on this list? That people may have shared experiences, forged friendships, and built memories together before your arrival? I might as well be bitter that Rick, Jen and Donna were here before I was. Or that they were still on the list for something called a "Sindar."
 

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me,
particularly names that actually _mean_ something, and I'm well aware
that those somethings don't apply to me.

Hurt you? Oh, heavens, that was the farthest thing from my mind. I wanted to *insult* you. I wanted to make it unambiguously clear that I disliked your style, and that I thought you were a waste. I felt like getting your attention, and, if lucky, focusing you on the fact that your correspondence seems to be regularly, insistently, and intensely well crafted for maximum offense. Addressing me, in particular, as though I were your jester was clearly an attention getting maneuver worthy of any caricature of some grotesquely spoiled little girl. You display a regular lack of basic manners, and you regularly claim an excuse that is demonstrably ill fitting. Your words are too regularly chosen too well for your excuse to have any validity. Your apparent toxicity seems to be only your own, conscious choice. I find your text and your habits offensive. 

 

 If the shoe had actually  _fit_, for example, saying "Autistic" instead of "sociopath" it would  have pinched.

Your ability to judge the situation seems disastrously compromised. Spoiled little girls are almost the very definition of sociopathic narcissists. Your behavior is indistinguishable. As for the fact that you'd gloat and preen after a lack of response, well, a junior trainee in the street corner psychic business could have predicted that.  Regarding "autism," I'm afraid that you are simply far too skilled at communicating in this medium for me to accept that as an excuse, much less some sort of justification. It's no more acceptable than my trying to excuse my rudeness by saying "I'm just an asshole." It may be true, but it's hardly an acceptable cause. 

Your putative dysfunction is, in this context, obviously negligible and irrelevant. Since it clearly has no effect on your ability to craft an email, your continued references to it are transparently self-serving, self-aggrandizing and distracting. Are you somehow diseased enough to you see what sympathy you get as a form of social currency? Or manipulative enough to see the utility of such currency in getting your own way? If so, I'm afraid you've spent the last penny's worth. I don't much care about your motivation or your condition. In simple fact, I can honestly say that I have cared more about a rat's ass.

I do, however, hope you find regular comfort in your own estimation of your conversational worth and behavioral traits. You are, of course, grossly and demonstrably wrong.  Mind you, I wouldn't blame that on your narcissism or your sociopathy. Your obvious ability to be so utterly wrong is, in fact, why I called you a pinhead.

Now, one more time: fuck off away and stop pestering the straights.

Alternatively: sit back, pull your greasy, little pinhead out of your ass, and think a little bit harder about how to be a good person before you hit send on yet another annoying fucking email. I don't have time to keep insulting you.
