@chai2,
While you don't wish to respond and that's your right, so I respect that; I do feel a response from myself is warranted here...
Quote:It's sarcastic in that you couldn't just come out and give an answer, but instead chose (and are choosing) to make it in the form of a question
If you read what I wrote, you only need to read two words into my question, and the answer should be very obvious, you'll also note that I even used
pink as the font color for the word "color" in that same post.
Quote:that put the OP in an awkward position.
Not at all. I think suggesting that is actually what would do just that had the OP responded, so I don't wonder why they didn't respond. And rightfully selected Sturgis's post as the "best answer", which is a smart move given your response suggesting that they were somehow "put in an awkward position". So I think with all respect, you're being far too dramatic here, and bordering on being "professionally offended".
Quote:You're used to I see participating on political threads, which I don't contribute to. Maybe you're just used to using a more arguing tone.
Me participating in political or any other threads here has nothing to do with my response, beyond the fact that coldjoint seems to primarily participate in political threads, and use pink font. So don't be silly.
Quote:I do notice however, that in the thumbnail of one thread, you were saying "That doesn't answer my question. Why can't you just give a yes or no answer?"
Well let's say I did respond with just "no"; that would
not have answered the OP's question at all, and nor would it have lead them to the answer.
If I'd responded with just "yes"; that would have been a lie and downright misleading to the OP.
So you are comparing apples and oranges here, therefore I don't accept your comparison - as it makes no sense given the above.
Quote:Yet you did pretty much the same thing here. You couldn't just give a straight answer?
No, I don't believe I did, and again, you're comparing apples and oranges. And again, one only needs to read two words into my first reply to this thread to
literally see the answer to the OP's question (or looking at ANY of coldjoint's posts for that matter).
