In addition to this irony, there is another. I seem to recall that it was you who started with the personal comments
here: "If some of you don't give a fuck, then why would you comment in the thread? Is it your habit to go through all threads about which you have no fucks to give, and notify everyone of said dearth of fucks?"
That isn't a personal comment at all. It's a question.
It's a question alright, but a rhetorical one, don't you think? With that question you were commenting on another member's frame of mind, rather than the topic itself.
No, I was suggesting that it's ridiculous to come to this thread and say how much you don't give a fuck about it, because if you did that for this thread, why would you not do it for other threads? Asking that question illustrates that point.

No, she did not say what she thought about the topic. She said that she didn't care about the topic. If someone were to comment about the topic, they would say something substantively to contribute to the discussion. Saying you don't give a fuck about it isn't that.

and then noted as an aside that you feel offended by the skepchooks' actions and attitudes. Then you decided to focus on that.
I don't think she did say that. In any case, I don't "feel offended" by their actions and attitudes. I disagree with them.

For the record, I regard the skeppy crowd as a bunch of neurotic, airheaded, selfabsorbed circle wankers whose main function seems to be to serve as acolytes of two megalomanaical queen bees one of whom is an utter airhead, the other a virtuoso of tabloidism, and both of them totally selfabsorbed. I wouldn't dream of spending anywhere near as much time and effort on reading their shit and commenting on it as you do. Lordpasternack's obsession seems a more worthwhile one, and I think she has a better chance of making a material difference with hers than you do with yours.
Good. There you go. Yet another personalization. Now, if I were to retort in kind, I'm sure I would get some sort of whine back that I, the responding party, am doing something wrong, or making it personal. This is precisely what Gallstones did. If you throw a rock at someone, don't be surprised if they respond.
