In response to trundle

"Also, I think to say "you're a bad person for doing X Y and Z" without prior knowledge of the person's background or motivations is very harsh. But that's just my opinion. You don't have to agree with me."
Fuck, I thought that's how opinions worked.  I have them; you have to agree with me.

That person also said "Frankly, I'm getting tired of discussing it."

The poor dear, apparently someone is sitting next to them with a gun to their head forcing them to keep replying to these comments.

Nothing I like better than continually responding to someone who demands the conversation end, yet does not seem to realize that it is within their power to end the conversation.
