ya know, I'm pretty sure I've known you since the old DKos days, but I've just gotta say that, other than being a pissy contrarian, it's pretty baffling to figure out either the motivation behind, or the ultimate destination for, all of this this counter narrative rebuttal.

And as a simply procedural matter, it's interesting to me (I've had the pdf open in a tab since yesterday) that your screen shots carefully crop out even the line numbers. So it's virtually impossible to read for context unless one is 100% familiar with the entire text.

By "virtually impossible" you mean searching on the phrases in the screen cap is "virtually impossible"? I chose a cleaner screen cap because it's doable here. In a searchable document that in no way prevents you from checking my work.

Your screen caps are a non-searchable image file. Without the line numbers -- OK: which do repeat -- one would have to have your image open in one tab and manually switch back and forth to search for that passage But at least the line numbers would be an anchor of sorts.pic.twitter.com/2zl7Ji6qMj

So, not even remotely "virtually impossible." In fact, just as easy as searching on line numbers, and more efficient, too!

OK. For cases where "virtually impossible" intersect with "pain in the ass". But you don't seem to care about that, or allowing the context of what you're posting to be clear. Which makes it far, far easier to insist on only one set of "facts".

Please tell me how any other method of screen capping would make it easier for you to find this in the text? Short of replicating entire pages with page numbers?

What I just posted is one example. At the very least, posting a screen shot like this removes any potential doubt that what you're posting is a photoshop fake. Shit. I could make up a fixed-font screen shot to say anything I wanted and call it a passage from this transcript.pic.twitter.com/UP23uc9lKR

YOU'RE ACCUSING ME OF CREATING A FAKE SIMPSON TRANSCRIPT WHEN ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SEARCH ON THREE WORDS?!?!?!?!?!

Delisted and unfollowed. A heart beat away from just being blocked. Seriously, Marcy, you really need to learn how to handle criticism. You've made no factual rebuttal to anything I've said except accusing me of ACCUSING YOU!!! in all caps. Really. Wow...

Let me take matters into my own hands by blocking you. You accused me of fabricating evidence bc you were too lazy to type out 3 words in a search bar.https://twitter.com/John_de_Vashon/status/951117641359409152 …
