OB1 OB1 OB1... I... just... First you say you didn't think that was the case at all, now you go ahead and go back to the VERY start of this confusion months ago with the assumption that I must be doing some weird kind of deception! Yes, we have talked about it, but I thought the conclusion you reached was that I truly WAS joking, not this! Not your ego taking over like this! It's true, it's really actually true, your ego is SO great that rather than accept that you couldn't get my joke, you assume I really was being serious and then tried "backing out" of my opinion by pretending I was joking!
...Is that who you think I am? Do you honestly think I'm someone that decietful and without any confidence in my own opinions? Do you really think I'd just back down in that manner? I'm very hurt by this. Congrats, you actually managed to hurt my feelings. I have tried working with you here, to come to an understanding, and it seemed you had at least finally realized I wasn't doing some weird kind of lie. I have no idea why anyone would actually be capable of doing that sort of thing. I mean, if I have BELIEVED it, why would I just instantly take it back? What kind of shallow personality do you think I have? I've fought many things I actually think before, why would I sometimes totally go against what I said and sometimes fight toothe and nail for it? That's psychologically impossible a thing to do! I have no idea how I managed to give you this false impression of me, but I should hope you will come to your senses and eventually apologize. Good day OB1.
OB1: But..
DJ: I say good day!

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
