Uh, sorry.

I wrote "Go look at the actual post I responded to..."

You replied "I quoted the ACTUAL POST."

But, you DID NOT QUOTE THE ACTUAL POST I RESPONDED TO.

So you didn't do the simple thing I asked you to do, but you just re-attacked without trying to understand.

Anyhow, I'll make it plain to you.
The post I responded to, which I asked you to look at but you didn't, was from X. She wrote to jla, in response to his post:

"Now that is odd. Why would you share personal information about your child
with someone you've just been calling all kinds of names? That seems very
very...strange. "

I agreed with her that it was strange. So I offered a speculation as to why he did it. I speculated that maybe, given the recent activity on the thread concerning Special Olympics, he said it to garner sympathy for himself from X. Whether that was perhaps the strange reason he brought his daughter in in the first place.

Like all speculations, it could be right, it could be wrong. I don't know which, and frankly, neither do you.

Now, is that so hard to understand?

Your apology is accepted.
