> If I'm that off, why even engage?

Yes, exactly. That’s why i didn’t engage on the topic, just on gender indicator words and spelling.

> Felt like the right thing to do.

Reacting terribly? Ok

> You're just repeating what I said now, but […] in an angry tone

You seem to have misread my tone. Patronizing? At this point yes. Angry? Not even a little bit miffed.

> I showed you where the spoon is

Wait, is there a spoon in the matrix? I don’t remember that bit. What a detailed reference. I’m humbled

You're upset because the nerdy boy that explains things is supposed to apologize when confronted, specially if there's any injustice involved.

Now you're even more upset that I didn't, and I also did put you in the spotlight.

You're not fighting for some LGBT cause, you're a provocateur. You're upset because you were not able to provoke me to steer into polemics territory. The soon you admit to yourself that you're upset, the better.

Do you have any comment about the movie tropes, its relation to cyberpunk and computers, or anything actually useful for the ongoing discussion?

Spotlight? We’re like nine comments deep on an article that’s off the front page two days ago - you and I are the only ones reading this.

Uhh, whut?

> Uhh, whut?

Were you under the impression that I'm someone that would explain it to you?

Yeah I was told you’re a “nerdy boy who explains things”

But seriously, i have no idea what you’re talking about. Seems to be referencing something, but i can honestly say I have no idea what. That’s not a request for an explanation, just letting you know

It's a biblical passage
What chapter and verse of The Game is it?
