Do you really think she can stick to that resolution and not use the famous "supercilious references to nameless antagonists whose identities are for the most part not a secret, and don't count as 'name calling' ugly characterizations that use the loophole of omitting nouns?" Will anyone remind her when the first supercilious reference is blurted out in full Tourette's-like reflex?

You attacked me. I did not attack you. I do not give you my permission to attack me for some inferred reference you see to yourself or others you feel you need to protect, in a post that had nothing to do with you. You can of course do that, but I will not give you my permission to do it, by letting you think I agree with your remarks in any way. I do not. You may feel you can attack me, whenever you feel like it, and that you can then turn it around on me, when you are the attacker, and then tell me you hope I meant what I said about not being ugly. But I do not accept that. It is hypocritical and just wrong- as far as I am concerned. You have done it before, and I am tired of it, and find I cannot tolerate it. I do not condemn you, but I certainly reserve the right to condemn your actions when I find them unacceptable. And I find your actions very unacceptable. I even want to be able to condemn hypocrisy generally- which I did. I did not exempt myself E. I can never recall exempting myself from anything, actually. Sometimes when people feel insulted it is because they did something "wrong" and someone mentioned it. And sometimes when people feel patronized it is because they are acting immaturely and someone pointed it out. And sometimes when people slam you in an entire post (after you have pointed out they attacked you, and told them you don't approve of their behavior) and then they give you their "good wishes" it rings a little hollow, and smacks a bit of hypocrisy, and incivility.
