This is so far away from anything I meant to say that I have no idea what happened.
> you've still refused to elaborate on how or why you think they're different
I don't?
I think blog posts are different from conversations but that should be self-explanatory.

"Bad day or something" is suggesting they're being too harsh. It's not suggesting they fail to understand the situation, the way you did with me.
> I don't think you've been direct at all about anything relating to the actual original conversation; the only things you've been direct about are in telling me or others that we're wrong and pointing out the things you think we've been doing wrong
What do you want me to be more direct about? The answer to whether I understand these broad categories of social norms exist is yes. I just don't think the blog post falls into the category where you need a thank you first. Is there anything else you want to ask?
I don't think I can say anything useful about your last paragraph.
- saghm 2mo agoNo, I don't think I have anything else to ask you, because I'm honestly still struggling to understand any sort of consistency between what you've said overall. I still maintain that your initial comment was telling someone else they were wrong and that you haven't given any explanation that makes sense to me about why other than just asserting it as self-evidently true. Looking back though before writing this comment, I did notice that the comment seems to have been flagged, and that doesn't seem necessary to me. On the off chance that it might have been a factor in your subsequent responses, I went ahead and vouched for it because I think I would be frustrated if I were flagged for a comment that was similarly benign (even if it was wrong).
