Go drink some water, pal. I thought it was a very well worded statement, and stripping it down like so really robbed it of a lot of its potency, imo. It's fine to disagree with me, that's your business, but to extrapolate that I consider this narrow quoting to be the injustice of injustices in this world is a little goddamn silly.

I don't disagree with you; and I agree that it was well-worded. I just think it's a pathetic use of the word.
