You weren't just making fun, you were saying you're sick of us being bothered when people made fun of us.

Except that the context in which I was replying was not one where someone felt picked on because they got made fun of, it was one where someone felt picked on because someone said that it's plausible they dumbed down the Witcher for Americans.

@masterspace Yeah, but YOU are the one who brought public school into it and you did it in a clever little jokey way.

No, man. You're mocking people who don't have access to a high standard of learning. You're trying to rationalize that away so that you don't have to feel bad about it.

@masterspace You're really so obsessed with the last word you're gonna let this dissolve into name-calling? are you still IN school?

[–] masterspace@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I know you are but what am I?

@masterspace Less tired of this than me. You win this time, Canada.
