Not really.

If you don't want to answer, just politely say you dont know and theyll find it out by themselves or from someone else.

Sarcasm, condescending tone, and rude remarks earn you lifetime enemies and a reputation of being a dick.

If you don't agree, that's fine. You'll learn soon enough.

No, it's about you. You didn't read it.

There's one word that begins with a k that's very important to the understanding of it.

In case you hadn't noticed, this is condescending.

You are welcome.

What part of "keeps" should I have been clearer on?

I'm sorry if it doesn't denote annoying, lazy, or anything that it was intended to.

I hope your life is peaches and cream and that your farts continue to smell like perfume.

That's the idea, genius.

Some of us have things to do and we can't keep helping others, like the people who don't actually get the original post.

If you can't find the loser in the crowd, then it's you.

Trust me, I've been there many times. Eventually you get smart enough to tell people to pound sand.

I hope you keep your idealism and kindness.

Actually, no.

This is a case of appropriately setting boundaries and not rewarding laziness.

I have to give you a point for cleverness in your response, but overall, you misunderstood the post and then further made yourself look foolish by commenting on the misunderstanding in a way that you hoped would make you look clever and mildly snotty / condescending.

Sadly, you didn't own me.

I have been owning you this entire paragraph.

Go back and read it.
