You are right. My responding to them fuels the fire.

I have because I fear silence to what they say condones it. Perhaps that is my own neurotic anxiety and belief that they must always be confronted or they take that silence as acceptance.

I know I have lowered myself to their very level in many of my responses and confess that is not wise but its been a lot of fun.

Given your eloquent comments, I admit to you in my real life I do not get to tell them to fuck off. I must be professional and dettached and calm and rational. This is probably the only opportunity I get to stick my tongue out at them and I must confess it has been hilarious for me.

When faced with such eloquence from you, I will pause for some thought.

Those were wise words.
