You say you were educated in American universities, eh? So that makes you an
American-educated anti-American protesting America and American education?
Well, I'll be sure to trust you in years to come! Haha.

[ben]
I'm not anti-American. Actually I am of the opinion that acknowleging and
commenting openly about the failures of America is a prerequisite to being a
good American. My education has happened in many countries - if you try a
type of food, and realize that you don't like it, and state your dislike for
it, does that make you a hypocrite? Or does it just mean you have the mental
wherewithal to make distinctions? And your trust or lack thereof is the most
trivial and meaningless concept I've had to encounter all day, so believe
what you want, as you appear to make a habit of doing.

[onandonandonagain]
That's really funny, guy. I didn't know America was so oppressive that you
had to move out!

[ben]
I'm not surprised; you strike me as the type who wouldn't... I wasn't being
hunted by the Secret Service or anything, but an evolution of patterns had
become obvious to me that I wanted no part of.

[onandonandonagain]
ben just shut up. You'll be doing yourself a favor. Although my join date
says I joined in 2002, I registered long before you.

[ben]
Explain how I'd be doing myself a favor. I'm dying to know how your opinion
of me will influence my life in any way. Your ignorance is typical of the
mindless patriot, but not spectacular. From what I see here I can surmise
that you will never achieve anything grand enough to be a problem in your
own right; no, you will undoubtedly remain merely a symptom, a statistic.
Roadkill on the path to redemption. Your join date is perhaps the most
irrelevant claim you have made yet, and new levels of irrelevance may be all
you achieve here.

Have a wonderful day!
