With respect DV.
You are being treated with hostility because you are acting hostile.
You are acting arrogant and condescending. You act as though you are superior but then you don't think before you post and that makes it easy to poke holes in your arguments and make you look dumber than us. The irony of that is slightly satisfying.

We play rough with people we know, but don't kid yourself there is respect and affection there too.

You come here half wound up and there are a group of us who are happy to wind you up the rest of the way and watch you spin. If that's the way you want it from now til November 4, that's how it will be. Or you can take the chip off your shoulder. Or you can relax and enjoy yourself. Either way, it won't matter to us. You are one in a long line.

Why don't you start some threads about "real". News and try talking about it without implying that we are stupid? That would be nice.
