No, but the post I replied to, and apparently you felt the urge to reply to my comment. But I now understand that you did not intend to contribute to the discussion, thanks for the clarification!

The comment you replied to was mine though…
I didn’t realize you were daniel-cussen - but it looks like you’re merely overwhelmed by how a forum works. That’s fine, but maybe dial down the smugness.

Then click parent. Go ahead, I’ll wait.

Smugness indeed.

One day you'll understand how a thread works! Don't give up hope!
I’m guessing you didn’t click like I suggested.
That's true, I hope you're not waiting anymore.

If you want to understand this thread, I suggest you start at the start.

Hint 1: I gave you the name of the person I answered to.

Hint 2: No matter how often you repeat it, it wasn't you.

Hint 3: Maybe it helps if you draw a flow chart of the different statements in the conversation!

But, see, don't worry. Because you jumped into a conversation between the post I replied to and myself, I assumed you had to add something to that conversation. I realize that I was mistaken and you just swooped in to offload some unrelated fun fact. My bad, won't happen again!
