You're the cause of the problem, so I'll concede the point and agree
with you.

What _isn't_ irrelevant is the problem itself and the inconvenience it
causes those who wish to reply to your posts.

_Not_ fixing it when, ostensibly, you could with a few key clicks is
raising pig-headedness to a new low and speaks volumes about your
character.

You may aswell say the invention of the motor vehicle cause Mr Bloggs

That's not the same thing at all.

Mr. Ford's philosophy mandated that the mistakes he made be fixed as
they were found, in the field, while yours seems to be that your readers
are responsible for finding work-around solutions to your errors.

No, the people who can't interpret a non-carriage returned line are the problem.

causes those who wish to reply to your posts.

They can get decent software.

_Not_ fixing it when, ostensibly, you could with a few key clicks is

It wouldn't be "fixing" it, it would be "changing" it. I don't want narrow columns of text on my wide screen.

After hearing a couple's complaints that their intimate life wasn't what it used to be, the sex counselor suggested they vary their position.
"For example," he suggested, "you might try the wheelbarrow. Lift her legs, penetrate, and off you go."
The eager husband was all for trying this new idea as soon as they got home.
"Well, OK," the hesitant wife agreed, "but on two conditions.
First if it hurts, you will stop right away, and second," she insisted, "You have to promise we won't go past my mother's."

Nope.

When you've been insulted, you've been insulted whether you know it or
not.

Sometimes it's even sweeter if don't understand the insult because that
shows off your stupidity.

The point of insulting someone is to annoy them.

So say you, but there are many more reasons than that to insult someone.

Like what?

Like to put them in their place, for one.

If I don't understand the insult, you haven't placed me anywhere.

If they don't understand the insult, you've achieved nothing.

Sure I have.

What I've achieved is discovering that your insight and intellectual
resources are insufficient to understand the insult and then to
retaliate.

What use is that?

It's a weapon I can use against you in the future.

Admittance of trolling noted.

You might aswell wait until someone is out of earshot then call him names.

---
You keep responding, so you're well within earshot, and you obviously
feel you have an emotional investment in the thread, otherwise you'd
just drop it.

So why do you keep responding?
---

To prevent you getting the last wod and gloating about it.

---
So it's OK for you to have the last word, but not for me?
---

Of course.

"Polly want a cracker?"

Trite, predictable, and ordinary.

Sorry, I've not enrolled in the troll school like yourself.

---
Bullshit.

You're just not that good at it and you hate it when you get caught
because you can't flame worth a shit either.

So you do admit to trolling.

A man in a hot air balloon  realized he was lost. He reduced altitude and spotted a woman below. He  descended a bit more and shouted, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a  friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The woman below replied, "You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude."
"You must be an engineer," said the balloonist. "I am," replied the woman, "How did you know?"
"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is, technically correct, but I've no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I'm  still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help at all. If anything, you've  delayed my trip."
The woman below responded, "You must be in Management."
"I am," replied the balloonist, "but how did you know?"
"Well," said the woman, "You don't know where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise which you've no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. The fact is you are in exactly the same position
you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it's my fault."
