You told me to stop gaslighting you and denying reality. I'm stopping now. My only agenda is complying with your eminently reasonable request.

  Do you speak like this in person?

    Sometimes. Why?

      I mean... It's just really pompous, dorky, and obnoxious.

        Believe it or not, sometimes being over-the-top polite and accommodating to people gets them to take a counter-point seriously. You just have to wrap it in a lot of stuff about how they're obviously right and you're clearly completely wrong. Once in a while catering to someone's need to be right lets you slip an idea past it.

          It comes off as 100% condescending and patronizing (which is what it is.)

            Do you think there's a better way I could have handled that user, given what was attempted by myself and others to no result?
