Fine, my mistake. Geez, anal aren’t we?

You’re welcome. I thought that you’re nice and did enjoy our discussion. Call me a fool. It was one sided. Because, I did enjoy and care about what you posted. You were nice to me, bottom line, and I thought we were discussing. My mistake, again.

I know EXACTLY what the poster, humblegunner said and I agree with him. I don’t need to show you &&&&. Unless of course I’m being tested and graded and if so, just what do I get out of it again? I haven’t been a student for far too many years to fall for this crap.

I cared or I wouldn’t have replied. How you take it is on you but I did care, sitetest. Not so much anymore.

Again, my mistake. Geez. I know humblegunner was commenting on the arrogance and self righteousness of SOME homeschoolers. How’s that about me not knowing what he was posting about again?

I’d say bite me but I don’t want to get deleted. Some of you people know how to get the digs in - I gotta learn that. Or maybe not. Not worth the time.

Dear Twink,

“Geez, anal aren’t we?”

When people play breezily loose with the truth, yeah, something like that.

“You were nice to me, bottom line, and I thought we were discussing.”

I'm still being nice, even if I'm also pointing out that you said something that wasn't quite true, and then didn't seem to have any desire to check whether it was true or not.

“I know EXACTLY what the poster, humblegunner said and I agree with him.”

You agree with this?

“My public schooled kids shrug off your insult and suggest
that perhaps your kids are weenies who get beat up and can't cut it in the real world.”

That was in response to what I said here:

“But we also know that on average, homeschooled children do better than public school students,...”

I replied:

“I didn't say anything about your public-schooled children.”

Humblegunner then told this lie about me:

“Sure you did, just today. Remember?

“’homeschooled children do better than public school students’”

What I actually said was:

But we also know that on average, homeschooled children do better than public school students,”

Why is this a lie? Because in taking it out of context, it changed if from a comparison of results of one group to the results of a second group to a universal generalization.

So, you agree with what humblegunner said?
