    I am more worried about the Dementia patient* issuing lawful orders that are extremely stupid to issue.

    I'd worry about that when and if he issues an unlawful order. He hasn't yet done that.

    You mean your LACK of greatness. I actually read quite well and have a far greater command of the language than most, yourself included.

    Here's the thing... I don't think you are actually stupid. I do believe you have a much inflated ego and are a condescending SOB. Your constant references to people as your intellectual inferiors just serve to make you come off as a pompous ass and actually harms your arguments more than helps them. When you take that approach to dealing with people it just causes them to dismiss what you have to say, even if there is some small amount of merit to it.

    I am not the one who demonstrated his inability to follow the conversation. That was you.

    I followed the conversation quite easily. Your response saying you have been "good" since age 25 was actually overly broad and made you an easy target for ridicule. Instead of taking my shot in stride and making some witty retort like most people would, your ego refuses to let it go. Again, you are just showing yourself to be a self important buffoon with an out of control ego.

    Reign it in and people might start actually taking you seriously again.

    You failed to demonstrate an ability to follow a simple conversation. Instead of taking my shot in stride and making some witty retort like most people would, your ego refuses to let it go.
