Ultimately, attacking his intelligence was the only point. He was unnecessarily harsh, so I was too. It was a parody of sorts. Equate "Don't see this movie" with my refusal to ever read anything he has to say again. My response was just about as ignorant as his original post; that's what I was going for. I didn't really think I had a chance of convincing him of anything, otherwise I might have gone about it differently. At least I had a good time.

Good question, though. If I were always like that, I'd have a hard time living with myself.


"I'm going back to the ones that I know,
With whom I can be what I want to be.
Just one week for the feeling to go;
With you there to help me, it probably will."
