I'm afraid you don't decide what comes across as hostile. Things can be discussed in many ways, yours is one of assuming to hold all the answers in a conversation with a stranger you know very little about. I would reconsider this. You don't know what I was buying, for what reason, or if there was a realistic alternative. You just say "you weren't born with it", and "it's the truth". An unconvincing way to argue whatever point you actually have.
- sneak 5y agoIf you find truthful and accurate statements of fact to be hostile, I don't know what to tell you, other than perhaps clarifying that I wasn't intending to be convincing or persuasive. Those that care about the truth will be persuaded sufficiently by facts, and everyone outside of those that care about the truth I am not interested in spending any effort persuading.

- vangelis 5y agoUnfortunately, being an asshole tends to outweigh being correct in conversation. Maybe work on those social skills, bud.
- rojondo 5y agoDoes that mean you do not care about the truth, as you seem unpersuaded by the fact your missives are found to be hostile?
