Not really, but I'm endlessly amused by your touchiness on this. Maybe the trick for Gruber is that's fun to poke the prickly. > imbue emotions that don't actually exist into this conversation > do those words offend you?

Do you believe Gruber offers an Objective evenhanded perspective on his posts? To me nearly everything he writes reeks of one sided immature fanboyishness. He writes solely to appeal to those who seek affirmation of beliefs and reinforcement of Apple's 'Reality Distortion Field'. He is the king MacFag.

  > He is the king MacFag. Nothing to add – I just wanted everyone to know your character in case you later thought better of that line and deleted it.

    Of course you have nothing to add. You haven't added a single thing to this entire thread. Best to avoid the question and glom on to something you perceive as offensive and white knight for those poor people whose tender feelings may be rustled by my brutish and ugly language. I shudder to think of the world thinking less of the character of my quasi anonymous hackernews account.

      No white knight here – you just used a slur that's deeply hurtful to a lot of people I really like. That's just good ol' fashioned me taking it personally. This isn't /b/.

        An offensive term fitting for an insufferable subculture deserving of ridicule less they become worse. Not as derision to the gay community mind you, think of it like 'art-fag'. edit see[1] My question still stands. >Do you believe Gruber offers an Objective evenhanded perspective on his posts?
