    Dear people who like to argue with what they're sure you really mean or what they think you are going to say regardless of what you are actually saying or are remotely likely to say going on everything you've ever said before, Fuck off. Thank you.

        And you lot are enablers. Why are you liking and retweeting when I lose my temper, huh? You should be sorrowfully shaking your heads in disappointment and reminding me solemnly of my commitment to civility and charitable interpretations of others.
