"By all means, enlighten me, ye who said 'slap me and wake me up', eh?"

"Huh?

For whatever reason, it sounds like you're suffering from a case of premature exasperation. My post was intended as a final commentary on the status of the former troll known as 'freepress3482'. It had nothing to do with you.

Perhaps you could explain yourself more fully as why you're taking offense at just a little past 4:00 am my time."

"Gee, Ricky. I'm sorry your mother blew up." It is not my problem that you have stayed up till way past 0400. I take no offense unless offense is given.

Refer to my first sentence in quotes, if you will. According to my post, you were not even addressed. If you choose to take offense, then shame on you. I have better things to play with than your "mind".

'Face

OK, in the interest of sorting this out...

My first post in this thread was #83, addressed ONLY to 'freepress3482' in which I included a very nifty picture of our Commander in Chief with the overhead caption 'The Vulcan Curse has been invoked against yet another troll..."Die Quick And Go Bankrupt'

You responded to me with the comment:

"And you said that because...????"

Which to me was asking the obvious, and I answered you with a proportional response in #85, "Because yet again, a troll has been ZOTTED. What part of that don't you understand?

Whereupon you exclaimed "OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And what part of "time-in-grade" don't YOU understand?"

Having NO idea of what you were talking about, and why your comments were directed at me, when *my* original post had been directed solely at the troll, I said in # 87, "By all means, enlighten me, ye who said 'slap me and wake me up', eh?

And apparently that is what really set you off, when you came back with some snide remarks in # 88: "Ohwow....I'm telling my mom on you. You need to check things out before you jump in nekkid. I've changed diapers older than you are."

Now it gets interesting. Having no explanation as to why you're suddenly getting insulting, I said in # 91: "Huh? For whatever reason, it sounds like you're suffering from a case of premature exasperation. My post was intended as a final commentary on the status of the former troll known as 'freepress3482'. It had nothing to do with you. Perhaps you could explain yourself more fully as why you're taking offense at just a little past 4:00 am my time."

Now rather than just explain yourself at this point, you respond with even more obtuse logic: "Gee, Ricky. I'm sorry your mother blew up." It is not my problem that you have stayed up till way past 0400. I take no offense unless offense is given. Refer to my first sentence in quotes, if you will. According to my post, you were not even addressed. If you choose to take offense, then shame on you. I have better things to play with than your "mind". 'Face"

At this point, any casual observer of our little exchange here can only conclude that you're not capable of just giving straight answers to straight questions.

I made a post. It wasn't directed at you. You responded to it as if it were directed at you, with a subsequent series of obscure and oblique comments that simply made no sense.

I have no quarrel with you. I responded to comments that you made, and your responses lacked any sort of correlation to what was being said in the first place.

If you want to storm off in an 8-cylinder huff, have at it. I was a happy camper before I visited this thread, and I'm one now, whether or not you ever say anything that makes sense.

I invoke the Vulcan blessing: "Live long and prosper".
