Can you block me then since you want to be polite?
I know that's a big ask because you can't even stop replying. But this is not the first time youve responded to me talking to someone else to tell me I'm not polite. Then you immediately say you don't want to "communicate" but never stop replying.
Which is pretty obviously trolling. I had you blocked for a while, so I don't know how much you've been doing this. But the tab signed me out and the first comment was civil enough I took you off to reply.
So I think the best solution is we just block each other, right? You want to say you're being polite, then do the polite thing and just ignore me instead of rehashing this again at some later date.
Nothing about my comments will change, so if you don't like them. Take the very easy step to never see them again.
Unless your trolling, which is what saying "I don't want to discuss me insulting you" and then continuing to reply over and over. Regardless, hopefully I don't fuck up and think you're worth takng off again.
