My thought exactly -- does the author lack the self-awareness to realize that he is himself a smart ass?

My thought exactly -- does the author lack the self-awareness to realize that he is himself a smart ass?
- dextorious 15y agoDo you guys lack the reading-comprehension skills to understand that he talks about a SPECIFIC kind of smart-ass called a "pedant" which he is not?
- VikingCoder 15y agoLet me try again: I'm only blogging about my friend because HE is being pedantic! Again: After 17 months and countless hours of debate, I believe I've finally crafted the perfect argument to prove to my friend once and for all that HE is the pedantic one!1! Again: Doctor, after I've spent months researching it on the internet, I was hoping that you could help me confirm my self-diagnosis of obsessive-compulsive behavior? Again: I'm not being annoying - he started it!!!
- jaekwon 15y agoI meant to ask something about your general intelligence, but I redacted it.
- dextorious 15y agoYou did the internet a favor. Your question would not have been anything remotely intelligent, anyway.
- VikingCoder 15y agoSo, his friend is not entitled to believe that consistency and self-discipline are different things? What's the key to your success? Consistency! Ah, you mean self-discipline! No, I mean consistency - they're different. PEDANT! Why is it pedantic to believe that two words are different, but it's not pedantic to ignore your friend's choice of words, and to try to substitute your own words in - and then get so pissed about it that you call your friend a "dumb ass" on the internet? ...irony missed.
