But it's usually not that I dislike them. Rather, it's that I don't respect them, or at least that I respect them less than others.

But you don't need to keep making this about me. Again, you're not gonna get me to pay rent. Sorry.
Oh drop the tired 'rent for living in your head' trope. Of course messages are going to be about you in a sense when I bother to reply to you. The content of most disputatious messages on the boards always reduces to "I am good and right, you are bad and wrong." That's pretty much the point, dress it up as we will.
