Rush vs King Crimson

^ You might as well ask me to elaborate why 2 + 2 = 4.

You do?    So what about one of your earliest posts on this forum where you boasted, "I learn music so I know this sh*t (therefore KC is crap)"?   Did you pause to consider that perhaps there may be people on this forum who have played in bands or even produced music for years?   If that's not a superiority complex, what is?   You may think you are polite and mannered but your words are anything but.  I am not asking you to be, but if you are going to say "unlike you guys" I can talk this language to you.   I am sorry I have to go down this route with you.  I hate doing it, heavens know I tried reasoning with you but you are terribly obstinate. 

Get a mirror, you need it, ASAP.

They probably think when Orwell said"ignorance is strength" he really meant just that. Pigs can fly, i heard it, It must be so, I like me some crispy bacon and anybody who does not like it like that is just plain wrong.

I don't know why you just said that. I'm not attacking you or anyone else here

wow

just wow. amazed at that stunning display of irony.

I guess I should explain, adding that comma made absolutely no difference. You are still implying that, unlike "us", you do admit your faults (which you don't), which is still a superiority complex.

If you didn't intend to say it, then how come you did say it, clearly and unambiguously? It's not like you made a mistake with the phrasing that made the sentence offensive or something. It's offensive no matter how you phrase it.
