I am confused. Where are these "insanely aggresive responses"? What "manners" should I have used in my responses?
Normal manners, in which you would treat any other living human being if you were confronted with them in the same situation face to face. If these are your true colors, I'm not impressed.

So you honestly thought that someone had asked remydat "Are you an educated person? How many graduate degrees do you have?"
I didn't honestly think anything. Go back and re-read what I said. In sum, I simply asked why you had that in your signature because it would seem you were either: 1) Boasting about someone else's accomplishments; 2) Making fun of someone for being educated; or 3) Calling someone a liar. I asked because I wanted to clarify what happened. Not because I "honestly thought" someone said something.

You lied because you originally said you were confused by my signature, then a few posts later you said if remydat "threw it out there to support his argument", then you would understand why it would be in my signature. So, you've understood my signature this whole time. Hence, you lied.
First, I think it's very important to clarify something: I clearly had no idea what context any of this was said in, and as a result I had no knowledge of the surrounding facts.
Second, let's define the word lie for you:
LIE said:
an intentionally false statement.
So I had no knowledge of what happened. I asked you what happened. AND the situation in which you claim happened wasn't what I expected, as I've stated numerous times. I also made no statement as to what happened. So, I'm confused as to how I lied about anything. You are reaching here. I'm guessing to justify your own warped notion as to why your current behavior is justifiable within society. It's not.

You are indeed a poor, confused soul. Your confusion is of your own free choice...you've provided yourself with two hypothetical options, one which explains my signature, the other doesn't. Instead of choosing the hypothetical which would explain my signature, you've instead chosen to repeatedly choose the hypothetical which wouldn't (in your mind) explain my signature. Good for you. I don't understand your continued posting on this topic (i.e. my signature).
LOL, wtf are you talking about? I haven't chosen anything. Are you out of your mind? Did you read anything I've said? All I did was ask why you had that signature. I've made no comments as to who was right or wrong, as between you or remy. I simply asked for what happened because I didn't understand it. You told me, I said thank you. You've since gone on some sort of temper tantrum, presumably because you feel as though I've sided against you on something I don't care to be apart of anyways. You really need to read what people are saying, and not skim it.

And really, there are no "facts" to review or "context" required. Someone on the internet claiming to have several graduate degrees is sig-worthy on its own merits. As I had originally asked you, to which you have yet to give a response...how many times have you seen someone claim to have "several graduate degrees" on an internet forum? I've only seen it once in 15+ years.
If I was making a judgment call on whether it was an appropriate thing to say or not, there would be facts to review and context would be required. In fact, context is required for everything. The fact that you believe that no context is required is silly. Either way though, I'm not making a judgment as to who was right or wrong, I simply asked for the story behind it. You either let that get under your skin because you thought I was doing something I'm not OR you're actually a major jerk. Either way, those are both problems you have to resolve, not me. Also, I'm unsure why it would be silly for someone on the internet to claim they have multiple graduate degrees. Do you not recognize that there are a lot of people out there that
DO have said degrees? It sounds as though Remy is in accounting of some sort. I know for a fact people get multiple graduate degrees in that field. Just because you think it's ridiculous doesn't mean it is.

I see you are still unable to comprehend basic concepts on this site, and I hope you continue to improve as a poster here. Perhaps when you overhear two people sharing an inside joke, you can confront those people with an insanely aggressive response and say "I heard your joke...and I know its an inside joke of which I have no knowledge of...but I am confused as to why you find it humorous. I'm not attacking you are trying to be annoying...I'm just curious. Again, I already know its an inside joke, but I was confused as to why you were laughing. I mean, I understand why you would be laughing since its an inside joke, but since I don't know for sure, I am curious."
First, comparing a signature that you
PROMINENTLY display to everyone on this board with everyone of your posts to an inside joke that is told between two people which only those two people know about and where someone happens to overhear is completely off base. Second, I don't think Remy believes it's an inside joke. I believe his word for you was troll. Third, and I think this is important for you to understand, I don't care what type of poster you claim that I am. You aren't the arbitrator of quality posters.
