    someone told me you never went to college AT ALL - true or false?

    Why does that matter? I don't think college did much to improve my writing skills. I am not defending his forum etiquette, but I doubt college would have done anything to change that.

    It "matters" because, like you, he is intellectually dishonest. That you may not be *quite* as consistently intellectually dishonest as he is a positive thing, but hardly anything to boast of. Also, isn't backbiting "poor etiquette" in any situation? Isn't it amusing that you imagine you have standing to condemn me for anything?

          I am not condemning you for anything. I actually liked the article you linked. I didn't think it was necessary or relevent for him to make light of your college education or lack thereof.

                I wasn't making light. As I said, I was just curious.

                  Silly person, I know what the word means. That I can "overhear" your gossip (and false at that!) about me without straining myself does not make it less backbiting.

                  But you do, all the time; the was the entire point (you know, polising your "community" medals) of your needless aside about how "rude" I am.

                    But you are rude. And uneducated. And not very bright. And unChristian. And disliked by just about everyone here.
