The ignore list does not make actually sense to me. The thread of thoughts of a topic may be corrupted, at least to some extent. In addition to that, Don, you may see posts of people on your ignore list anyway, if they are quoted.

It is like a handbrake to me so I don't flame too much.

I don't like emojis so my posts are sometimes interpreted as snarks when I am just being witty.

It is hard being the smartest person in PC sometimes.

It is generally hard to be smart.

I wish I could spend my life eating, drinking, excreting, fucking and sleeping. Like carefree animals.

It's a burden you seem to be crumbling under.

It is a burden for me, that's for sure.

However I prefer to be persona non grata to the alternative which would be to lobotomize myself so that I can fit in with the rest of you.

Most of these guys put their fingers in their ears and close their eyes, spent most of their lives that way apparently.

Sometimes, IMO, the ignore button is used as an offensive gesture as opposed to a defensive maneuver.

I'd need a double lobotomy to get down to your level.

See--I look at your posts sometimes, and even click on your youtubes, sometimes. Still, I do think the ignore status is an appropriate response to your project in general, and the 8-in-a-row bit really pointed that up.

My usual pattern has been not to be return nasty for nasty. It just gets yet more nasty out there. But that runs the risk of sort of implicitly saying nasty isn't so bad, and of even being a doormat for it. Look, you basically come here to be an aggressive prick, and that is not OK.

Posting a cute silly song does not make it OK.
