Why, there's this nice little gem from yesterday, for example.
I did not attack your writing skills. I pointed out that they lack talent.
You very condescendingly asked South 40 is English was his second language. That is a personal insult.
You had Post #51 removed.
Because it was laden with personal insults on another FReeper.
And if I were you, I'd quite bragging about my writing skills.
Yours aren't all that.
So, that glass house you're dwelling in is getting a little more fragile.
I don't believe I've ever claimed that. But, to me, a personal attack is something like,"You're an ignorant slut and your mother is a whore and you're an idiot because you said something supportive of a candidate I don't like." Suggesting that someone's writing skills lack talent is not a personal attack. Sorry if you don't see the difference.

What time zone are you in? That little gem is barely an hour old.
I did not attack your writing skills. I pointed out that they lack talent.
That's an attack to you?
You very condescendingly asked South 40 is English was his second language. That is a personal insult.
First of all he didn't answer. For all I know he's Lithuanian. But what I was doing was poking a little fun. You seem to be taking it like some giant insult. It's not. In any language. Is South 40 genetically connected to you in some way? Is thin skin a genetic condition?
You had Post #51 removed.
Not to be picky, but this is not the place for a period nor does it, considering your next sentence, constitute a paragraph. I am not condescendingly criticizing your writing skills here, just making an observation.

Really, I wondered why that was removed. You didn't happen to make a copy of it, did you? I'd like to read what I said to see if I agree with its removal.
And if I were you, I'd quite bragging about my writing skills.<\i>
No offense, but that is a really stupid thing to say. If you were me then you would behave like me because, well, you would be me. Please show me where I bragged about my writing skills. It was South 40 who bragged about his writing skills; said they were superior to mine. That's okay, I turned the other cheek. (I considered the source)
Yours aren't all that.
Oh, so it's okay if you insult my writing skills. Mine aren't all that what? What, no courage to finish the insult? Afraid some moderator is going to delete this brilliant post of yours?
So,
Placing the word So, at the beginning of a sentence implies that you are about to make a summation of your ideas. Not to be picky, and please understand that unlike you I am not insulting your writing skills, but it helps to lay out ideas if before you try to summarize them.

If I'm not mistaken, you're the one who put me in this glass house so I must assume that it is your fabrication and if so, how fragile it is is more your fault than mine. I'm just living here.
