I am not the type of person to give you credibility simply because you are an attorney. Here are the issues I have seen:
1) you have contradicted yourself multiple times. Most importantly, as I have already pointed out, in another thread you actually agreed with the same point you're now arguing against.
2) you're a bit wishy-washy when it comes to determining fault in this instance. If we read through this entire thread, it is difficult to determine a stance at all (especially after your last post), but you continue to argue regardless. It doesn't make a lot of sense.
3) I've read a lot of your posts on this, and many other, forums, dating back to 2005, on snopes, Buick boards, cafe racer, etc., to determine your personality, and it seems you don't hesitate to condescend. I don't like that, and other people should see it. You seem to present yourself as a subject matter expert with (seemingly) no basis.
4) you've attempted to distract my attention away from the current argument with an attack on our relative financial status. Not only is that petty, it's laughable. You can claim that you are a successful attorney who makes a ton of money and can therefore be condescending to others in that regard (see above point), but I think you and I know the truth. YOU have posted that you need to buy a salvage title vehicle to drive back and forth to work, YOU have stated you could not afford a 50 year old $5000 truck, and YOU have listed your wife's Audi as one of your cars. Enough people on this board are familiar with my financials that I don't need to defend myself, we can just say that when it comes to you and I, I'm not really threatened. But yes, I agree, your comment was funny (just not for the reason you think).
