Well then, thank God you’re here to tell me what my own words mean.
Okay but should I interpret that comment literally like you suggest or should I "read into" it and determine you're being sarcastic?
Weren't you just saying people should "say exactly what they mean"?
Am I to interpret this as a sincere thank you, then? In which case. You're quite welcome. You seemed very confused and I'm happy to have provided some clarity in this matter. I hope what you learned today will be helpful to you going forward.
Ok, fine; you got me. I am now convinced. Nobody should ever say what they mean, and everyone should always assume everyone intends to say something completely different than what they actually said, in every situation. Also, sarcasm should be illegal. But even still, I didn’t need to hear your comment about how you are sexually attracted to animals. That seemed really out of place.
And with your sad attempt at a strawman argument (and your bizzarre animal comment that really just reinforced how unhinged you are), we know that you have nothing substantial left to say to support your ridiculous argument. You've contradicted yourself at least twice now and proven my point for me. Thank you. Maybe next time you'll keep your braindead take to yourself.
