Yes, it does, but the last time I touched upon something along those lines here, a lot of deluded folks got mad at me.

Alexander Pushkin stated it well and clearly a long time ago: "Better the illusions that exalt us, than a thousand truths."

it's not your lack of money that makes you unappealing. -- nm - b! May 9, 13:22 36
- Note to the casual reader: This person and myself are perfect strangers to each other. But lack of money certainly makes a man less appealing. - Facto May 9, 13:35 16
  - intellectual pretentiousness, delusions of superiority, and the inability to distinguish between "some" and "all"? *far* less appealing than lack of - b! May 9, 13:38 11
    - Sure enough - that's why I couldn't care less about you ;-) - Facto May 9, 13:45 10
      - You know the happy faces don't hide the fact that you are an asshole. Stop trying to act playful, asshole! -- nm - Redmond of Persia May 9, 13:46 9
        
        I didn't call anyone names ;-) - Facto May 9, 13:48 8
        
        "Honey" is pretty condescending, the way you use it. -- nm - mara May 9, 14:20 7
        
        I don't think he considers "delusional" to be pejorative. - b! May 9, 14:28 1
        
        Oh, stop already.. This is getting old. - Facto May 9, 14:46
        
        Well, I also wrote "deluded folks" - Facto May 9, 14:27 2
        
        so you do recognize that is a negative, yet wonder why you incite the reaction here? -- nm - b! May 9, 14:30 1
        
        I firmly believe that there is an explanation and an ultimate answer for just about anything. - Facto May 9, 14:37
        
        Oh, I have no doubt in my mind that he knows that. -- nm - Redmond of Persia May 9, 14:22 1
        
        It would be cruel of me to deprive you of the pleasure of being right. -- nm - Facto May 9, 15:34
  - please just go kill yourself - sherlock homie May 9, 13:36 3
    - Enter Chris, the designated hothead :-) -- nm - Facto May 9, 13:37 2
      - more like an eternal optimist -- nm - sherlock homie May 9, 13:44 1
        
        You're always so angry. - Facto May 9, 13:54
- I wasn't talking about myself, was I? What gives, honey? -- nm - Facto May 9, 13:26 18
  - Wow wasn't it Amanda that you pissed off/offended last time? Are you going alphabetically trying to piss off every woman on ST? -- nm - Redmond of Persia May 9, 13:28 15
    - Amanda chose to get pissed off and take personally something I wrote that had absolutely nothing to do with her. - Facto May 9, 13:38 13
      - Not that it applies anymore to this place than any other - for the record. (Bad phrasing on my part.) As internet forums go, this one doesn't seem at - Facto May 9, 14:06 2
        
        your approbation warms our little cyber hearts. we're not worthy. -- nm - b! May 9, 14:09 1
        
        Hmm -- nm - Facto May 9, 14:22
      - Oh we all have issues and you are perfect - amoxy May 9, 13:58 3
        
        No, we ALL have issues - more like it. - Facto May 9, 14:01 2
        
        Matthew 7:5 - amoxy May 9, 14:09 1
        
        Indeed. -- nm - Facto May 9, 14:23
      - Getting off on irritating people is worse. You have the issues. Most people grow out of your stage when they are in their early teens. - Redmond of Persia May 9, 13:42 5
        
        Well, I never do that. And I really am not into irritating people even. - Facto May 9, 13:47 4
        
        "We veered"? Your first post in the thread was about yourself and reactions to you. -- nm - mara May 9, 13:49 3
        
        Allow me to modify that. - Facto May 9, 13:57 2
        
        I think "cyber-" is still in the vernacular of charlatans and posers. -- nm - mara May 9, 14:01 1
        
        Heh heh.. :-) Feisty, for sure :) -- nm - Facto May 9, 14:02
    - Watch out Callisto you are on deck. -- nm - Redmond of Persia May 9, 13:29
  - You don't need to be talking about yourself to be unappealing. -- nm - mara May 9, 13:27 1
    - Thanks, but I wasn't wondering about that, honey ;-) -- nm - Facto May 9, 13:36
