well said, if what you're saying is truly without spite then in the future let's just agree not to talk shit about each other. i could argue that it's offensive to be referred to as a neckbeard simply because i'm stating (both positive and negative) facts about a computer you own. referring back to your quote, you are correct when you say that you don't know me, and I don't like talking about events in my life as openly as you do. However, this doesn't mean that I don't understand what it's like to narrowly escape having a permanently disfiguring injury (in my case I was almost blinded in one eye when I was three) or have a near-death experience/etc.
I never intended to offend with my post, simply that I believe(d) you did mean offense with yours. The reason why I felt the need to say something was because, as you said yourself, you don't know me, and if someone's going to talk shit about me I'd simply rather that they do it based on some kind of fact rather than on blind assumptions and the perpetuation of a 4chan stereotype. thanks, and if you want to discuss more things i'd prefer we do it via PM simply out of respect to your original thread - and gn :)
EDIT: apologies for even further derailing this thread
