    If you want to give me the $500,000 I need to get a house closer to my work I’d take it.

    If not you are doing the punching down everyone is talking about.

      Why are you defaming me? If you’d read the article I linked, you’d understand that I’m trying to help you.

        Im not defaming you. Im calling out your behavior. You can’t act rude and not expect pushback. You aren’t helping anyone with your attitude.

          Dismissing the validity of an argument because you don’t like its tone is a fallacy.

            And we aren’t engaging in a rhetorical debate here so attempting to highlight non existent flaws isn’t helping you here.

            You acted like an asshole and are being called out for it. There’s no way for you to be “right” in this situation after you chose to act inappropriately.
