>Of course I pointed and laughed at you, you were (and still are) acting very poorly towards others.

A non-confrontational mention that a tone marker would have helped, which you turned into an attack somehow (?), then you took pedantry to a new level (not uncommon on HN, but lol), and then after other insults on the OPs intelligence you say that they are acting poorly? What a laugh.

Communication is collaborative. If you can't accept the fact that sometimes someone might say "Hey, this would have helped me understand you better" without losing your mind over it, I feel sorry for anyone else you converse or collaborate with.

Shame on anyone who doesn't memorize comments from years ago. Or people with English as a 2nd+ language and may not glean the intricacies of written English that you think are so obvious.


That is not what he said, and again the misuse of quotations to make it seem like that's literally what he said is definitely not helping the situation.


It appears that you are now the one having trouble parsing English.

You know how in a book when fictional characters are talking how they use quotation marks to indicate that? In my comment, my fictional someone was talking, so I used quotes.

Perhaps you could stop telling me how to write my comments and stop telling me to change my writing behavior for your sake, just because you misunderstood?
