If you were anywhere near as clever as you would like others to think
you are, then you would not even consort with idiots, much less feel
obliged to constantly berate them.

And yet, here i am......not only consorting, but also corresponding, with
idiots.

Somebody trying to sell worms on a fly-fishing group is an object of
pity, not ridicule.

If you were anywhere as clever as you would like others to think you are,
you would likely not have much difficulty in distinguishing between pity and
ridicule. *In the case under consideration here, there has been a good deal
of the latter and none of the former expressed thus far. *In your own case,
the past couple of years have seen plenty of both, though not necessarily in
equal quantities. *I'm content leave a precise accounting to anyone with
nothing better to do.

But you and others feel obliged to display your
scintillating wit, and apparently endless wisdom, regardless.

I can't honestly recall that I've been much preyed upon by any strong sense
of obligation with regard to anything that takes place here. *But then, I've
never been the repository of much of the prescience that so enshrouds you,
either. *As for wisdom and wit, beauty, as they say, is in the eye of the
beholder. *You're welcome to your opinions.......apparently they are no
longer deemed as the valuable collector's items they once were, eh?


For
many, it makes you look even more stupid than he obviously is.

And this (even assuming.....generously.....that there was a shred of truth
to it) should be of concern to me......because?

Try to bear in mind that not everyone shares your patented "indifference" to
damaged reputation or your strict adherence to a policy of benign and
helpful responses to vituperation and contumely.......moron.

When was the last time you posted something pleasant and positive?

Don't know, exactly. *Why don't you check on that and get back to us, o.k.?

If
you have to think about it, it was too long, and too little.

Well, I don't have to think about it. *I don't define myself by the tasks
assigned me by deranged self-loathing nitwits.
