Please identify the portions of the following five posts which you felt were "nasty" - although, feeling something is "nasty" because it sounds "clever" does not add up, so I'm gonna need you to explain in a little more detail what triggered that reaction in you.

From my point of view, the following were made with NO hostility in mind whatsoever, and plainly reflect my point of view which was stated clearly from the beginning (actually, these were quite jovial until the end):

Notice that the final two posts contains a slight air of hostility after you came out and claimed your opponent did not have adequate knowledge of that which they were discussing. That was the first offense: condescension to the max.

If you would like, I can go through your other posts up to that point and try to pick out exactly which parts were condescending, but it really doesn't matter because from that point on, you insulted your opponent's intelligence instead of formulating an apply that addressed their point of view properly:

Wow. You went completely off topic to address one of your opponents personally, and take your one-up directly because it was never attainable through debate (as I told you from the start) - by making fun of the other's point of view.

Sounds pretty bad if you ask me.

You can believe what you want, but I just spelled out for you how YOUR air of condescension ruined the debate from the moment it came creeping in through the back door. That took a lot of energy so you better appreciate it (not really).

Now, I'll address the rest of this.

If you've never been patronized like this over the Internetz before, you obviously haven't been around long. You are also obviously lacking the thick skin needed to be on the Internetz. You are also, obviously, quite young. And boy did I make mistakes when I was your age on the Internetz, younger and even a bit older! Especially when I was a theist.

Nope, I haven't been around long, and I haven't run into many pretentious dicks thankfully - rather, mostly people who want to connect with others of a similar mindset and have peaceful and productive discussions or conversation.

You are also obviously lacking the thick skin needed to be on the Internetz.

Sorry - who's lacking the thick skin needed to be here?

As someone who progressively outed himself to each and every person he loves one-by-one from the age of 17 - including my LGF and her parents, now - and emerged with girl in arm, no harm done, everyone's respect, and a pretty secure situation overall - I'll politely reject your "obvious" deduction that the thickness of my skin requires any amount of adjusting whatsoever.

You are also, obviously, quite young. And boy did I make mistakes when I was your age on the Internetz, younger and even a bit older!

Yes - obviously because you know for a fact from prior conversations. Meanwhile, because my age belies the strength of my vocabulary, my confidence, and my life experience, I am usually estimated over the "Internetz" to be significantly older than I am.

With your ageism on blatant display here I can see exactly why you don't have a LGF. You should fix that.

And you know nothing about how I behave around children, let alone adults (IRL).

If you're referring to my "little girls don't dig a condescending attitude" comment, then I hope you're right and you lose the condescension when someone's addressing you face-to-face. Here's the secret: just because you're positioned behind a computer screen doesn't give you the right of way to act however you please - at least not to me.

I suppose the fact that you have a LGF is what justifies your nasty approach?

I'll let the fact that you suppose that speak for itself.
