I didn't get annoyed by something so ridiculous in the first place, so there's really nothing for me to "get over". I don't mind refuting and correcting people like you. It needs to be done or else we'll end up in a world where nobody can be themselves. > Either way, my participation in this thread is over. Good. Next time you should really consider participating in the first place if all you have to add is that "something bugs me". |
I do. I think your interpretation is bizarre.
