1) I was referring to the restaurant. 2) I'm from Montana. You should just apologize that you didn't understand my comment rather than try to over explain it.

- dang 7y agoIt's true that by "this place shouldn't exist" I thought you were referring to more than just the restaurant. The thing is, though, that the burden is on you to disambiguate, otherwise we end up with the same kind of flamewar. I don't think that's overexplaining at all. You didn't do it, so some explanation is necessary, and this is standard HN moderation. https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=by%3Adang%20disambig&sort=byDate&type=comment https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...
- socrates1998 7y agoYou are the one who started the flamewar by accusing me of something I didn't say. It was clear in my comment that every time I said "this place" I was referring to the restaurant. I used the phrase "this place" three times in my original comment, all three referring to the restaurant. Just apologize for accusing me of something that I didn't do and I will move on.
