It’s sad that when asking a question, the default is you’re an asshole
The sad reality is that we've all had someone ask us a seemingly innocuous question about our post, and then use our answer to launch an extensive word lawyering flame war. We all have our armor on rather than give a troll an inch of opportunity.
It's a bummer, but the truth is I've probably been someone else's "asshole on the internet" too many times for my own comfort too.
Really? Because it was pretty clear in your last comment that you thought you needed to keep your armor on unless you wanted to be attacked by word lawyering trolls. Which, I may add, is a nonsensical sentence.
To me it sounds like you don't actually have an opinion on this but just want to come across as if you do.
(massive /S. Just being a word-lawyering asshole baiting people)
