It's...almost like taking a post out of context lets you pretend that you're witty, when you really just come across as deliberately obtuse, and lets you pretend that what was being said was whatever you want, instead of the very specific thing that post WAS saying...
C'mon, man. I know you're better than that, because I have seen you posting here for a while now, and while I don't often agree with you, I thought you were better at this...
